Just watched Bob Breck on NOLA's FOX8 news. He said there's no way this gets into the gulf. He showed the trough that's digging down and is supposed to get all the way to the gulf....he said this is VERY unusual for late June (the strong trough, that is). He also said if this does actually cross Florida and get into the gulf, it wouldn't have any time because the trough would shoot it off like a rocket.
(he didn't actually say "shoot it off like a rocket", but he did make the noise)

I agree,this isn't going to the Gulf.skysummit wrote:Just watched Bob Breck on NOLA's FOX8 news. He said there's no way this gets into the gulf.

I know what he meant and I agree...just thought it was kinda funny. No way it gets into the Gulf, but if it does...

Btw, only 25 minutes to get your MOTM nomination in!

Bob just showed his VIPIR again pointing out the front dropping south. Right now we have some really strong thunderstorms over the area. When he showed the front dropping south, he also showed the thunderstorms reforming over the gulf. What he did not show though....and you could clearly see it on VIPIR, was a low pressure system forming in the central gulf near the area of forecasted thunderstorms.
(of course that's his Vipir model, so I wouldn't put too much faith in it)

Anything on the west side of the eventual center will likely get very little rain. Most of the dry air is on the west side( thanks CHRISTY) and it will most likely be sheared and lopsided like many weak systems.
When it merges with the front is when the rain really gets busy. I am not holding my breath for rain here in SW Fla. This time of year with our dewpoints we can get 3 inches at anytime just popcorn style.

I just plotted the mid-level steering flow (10,000 to 20,000 ft) for Sunday afternoon and Monday morning:

As you can see, if the GFS forecast is correct, then it would be quite difficult for this disturbance to get into the Gulf. And if it somehow managed to cross into the NE Gulf late Sunday, then it should be picked up and accelerated to the north as the upper trof digs into the region. Bottom line is that upper winds are not really favorable for development.
However, due to the proximity to land, I suspect the NHC will call it TD 2 by 4pm CDT tomorrow so that local officials can activate their emergency plans just in case a threat develops.

I am seeing a broad surface low in this general area. I could be wrong looking at the visible loops it looks like that is where the broad low is. Not trying to look at a particular circulation.

I think with intensity uncertainties that would be reasonable if RECON has any supporting data..
Sorry about the weekend..maybe you can still squeeze a ride in..

But 91L is really devoid of the convection that would be necessary to take it to the next level. Until I see that happening I don't see much of a future for it. From the MIA disco they have the upper level low pushing west from it's current convection. Perhaps that may give it the ventilation that it needs to enhance convection closer to the broad circulation. But, then again I could be wrong.
