Jose maybe trying to see?

There has appeared to be a banding like eye trying to develop. You can see that the western side is trying to wrap a band. While the northeastern side has formed a large area of deep convection. The only thing keeping this system from becoming a hurricane is land. It should be over land with in 3 or so hours.

Comments welcome!

Very nice blow up of storms near the center. Give him credit...he's trying his hardest with the little time that he has. Let's just be glad it's not moving to the north.

You got that right. I think a couple days over warm seas and he would be a monster.

I'm thinking early am before it moves in. Moving incredibly slow.....but looks good. Yesterday, this was a blob of moisture moving over the YUC. Amazing how fast it developed.

The entire storm is CDO right now. If recon was inside, we might have seen hurricane force winds.

Well, as "impressive" as a Mexican radar can look, you've got this:

/hey, it's a new guy.

There certainly looks like there's an eye now. Either that or it's just the yellow very cold cloud tops. My eyes can't discern :lol:

Looks like a spec of -80 cloud tops to me.

Pardon the lack of knowledge here; but is there much population where this storm is coming onshore?

This is going to cause extensive flooding so it aint a total loss for poor Jose :roll:

However if this was moving north we might have a cat 3 out of this

Yes. Its poorer and much more densely populated than the (quite sturdy) Yucatan peninsula.

People take a look at that radar. There seems to be a light spot/eye starting to appears near the center. Interesting.

Looks like it is going to hit just north of Veracruz *est pop 500,00*

Wow the eye cleared as it is making landfall. It is very small but its half on the coast.

It appears we have landfall!!!!

It looks like we're coming up a little short on being able to say we went a month without a landfalling storm.
Gert went ashore on July 24. I hope the damage isn't too bad from Jose. Appropriate name for a storm going into Mexico.

Jose maybe trying to see?
