Convection is decaying pretty rapidly south of Hispaniola, doesn't look like much at all needs to be watched here, though the Vorticity is a little bit interesting.

TUTT influence is certainly seen in satellite imagery as well.

Nothing much. Just some needed rain for me.

By Friday...deep layer moisture is forecast to return to the
region as mass and moisture convergence is expected across the
area with numerous showers and thunderstorms forecast. One feature that
will help to increase rain coverage across the region is an upper
level low...currently located over the central Bahamas. This
feature is forecast to retrograde westward and by Friday is
forecast to be a broad weak low over the Florida Peninsula. But it
may be in a position to help destabilize the middle to upper levels
and support numerous shower and thunderstorm activity over the
region by Friday afternoon,
