At near midnight, it's looking pretty good. And, if persistence counts.......

Never know a high suppose to be buliding along the gulf and over florida. It might just ride under that high to the south, then southwest.

It is moving slowly as far as I can see. It appears that the center is located at 29.8 north at this time. It looks exposed with the convection to the east. Kind of looks like a one sided system. Quickscat I have looked at do no show a LLCC. Remember this was a Upper low I think?

I will have to look at more Quickscats. But it seems that the low is exposed from the convection. The convection is to the east side. A few more things pointing to a upper low is that the low pressure is pushing the convection away on the Eastern side kind of like a upper low? Plus the Quickscat do not show it as a LLCC? :eek:


I Give it 10 percent chance at tropical depression over the next 24 hours. Then the shear may get less after that so 30 percent chance from 24 to 48 hours.

The latest qscat on the NRL site is farther south than the LLC. So I guess they think the main area of convection might form. Any way I can see a good area of divergence on qscat feeding those storms.
