Anyone notice the Medium range forecasts?

Some of the models want to bring a broad area of weak low pressure west-northwest towards the Southeast coast. I don't expect anything from it, but kind of early to see this in the forecast models.
This is a remnant of a frontal boundry, it gets trapped under high pressure building off the coast, and being a broad area of low pressure has no other direction to travel but westward:

Here you can see where it seperates from the frontal boundry:

No development, just taking a look out there being I noticed it when I was updating my forecast this morning.

Broad easterly flow generating some seabreeze showers off the East Coast of Florida as the main LP departs off to the Northeast.

If SST's were warmer that forecast cut off low could form something interesting. But lets not rule out a strong coastal storm forming out of this.

It would be great if some sort of activity will make it to the Florida east coast, soon, during the remainder of the dry season... which end the last week of May. :)
