That is part of a trough and an upper low in Mexico so nothing tropical from that but when you see a blob like that in that area you have to watch it just in case but right now no development.

Wow that's an impressive blob. But we have a cold front pushing through, so if anything happens with this blob it it won't be for Texas.

Garrett - you have just learned the first lesson of Blobology 101 - it looks pretty on sats. No other factors involved - it just looks pretty.

PT - wonder if our local mets didn't catch this - or if it just popped up like blobs do?

Where's Bre - she needs to be watching this NOW!

We need a tropical boat - like the snow train - so we can all jump aboard and get our rain.

MOVE NORTH _ MOVE NORTH_MOVE NORTH_MOVE NORTH_MOVE NORTH

Hope that chanting helps!
