Look at what's behind Katrina.

[Stormcenter]

There is a lot more action behind Katrina.

here we go

[ohiostorm]

The one that comes on the screen halfway through the movie is INVEST 97L. Convection is still east of the circulation. Should become and TD soon though.

here we go

The turds are going to collide with the whirling occilator.

TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
530 PM EDT WED AUG 24 2005

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...

THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON TROPICAL
STORM KATRINA...LOCATED IN THE BAHAMAS ABOUT 45 MILES EAST-
NORTHEAST OF NASSAU...AND ALSO ABOUT 185 MILES EAST OF THE
SOUTHEAST COAST OF FLORIDA.

SATELLITE IMAGES INDICATE THAT THE SHOWER ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH
THE TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED ABOUT 1200 MILES EAST OF THE NORTHERN
LEEWARD ISLANDS IS GRADUALLY BECOMING BETTER ORGANIZED. THIS
SYSTEM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME A TROPICAL DEPRESSION ON
THURSDAY...AS IT MOVES TOWARD WEST-NORTHWEST OVER THE OPEN
ATLANTIC.

A WESTWARD-MOVING TROPICAL WAVE OVER THE CENTRAL CARIBBEAN SEA
IS PRODUCING DISORGANIZED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. UPPER-LEVEL
WINDS ARE NOT FAVORABLE FOR DEVELOPMENT AT THIS TIME.

ELSEWHERE...TROPICAL STORM FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED THROUGH
THURSDAY.

There's definetelly some action out there. I'm looking forward to possibly a new system then Katrina. The other system has a lot more going for it since it's out in the open atlantic.

Katrina looks like she is falling apart in the last frame of that Infrared frame

[Astro_man92]

boy was it looking better this morning!!

[Jim Cantore]

Katrina looks like she is falling apart in the last frame of that Infrared frame

no the convection is re-firing

I tend to see that alot with these syestems

[ConvergenceZone]

At LEAST 97 will be a fish for sure!! I didn't think so last week, but the ones calling "fish" were absolutely correct. I'm glad, Katrina is enough to keep us busy

[feederband]

Big flare up to the SE of Katrina.

[gatorcane]

What the heck is behind Katrina!!!!!!!!! Where did that come from

[HURAKAN]

The flareup behind Katy, I mean Katrina, just formed a few hours ago. It's too early to get excited, let see how long it lasts and tonight if it still exists, then start the party. For now, just watch!

[gatorcane]

yes, it may die off as the day goes but it looks like it would move generally WNW towards FL if it developed at this point.

feederband - you just wakin up???

we been talking about this since 5am!
i was born & raised in pc - i know farmers get up earlier than that!
and they know all about hurricanes & freeze warnings & such

[Air Force Met]

Don't get all geeked up about what is SE of Katrina...at least not yet. If you look at the loop...you'll see it has massive amounts of divergence over the top...but not in the nice peaceful way it needs to be. There is an upper low to the north and Kat's upper high to the west. That is allowing the air to diverge at a right angle over the top. You get that kind of divergence anywhere (at the speed it is diverging) and you will get thunderstorms...but especially in the tropics during the diurnal max (early morning). Nothing will come of it as long as Kat's nearby. I've never seen a system develop with that kind of upper air wind pattern over the top either. 30 kts of shear is a little too much for it to handle.

YIKES. JUST SAW THAT

Forget that one, I'm talking about the others behind that one.

That wave looks even more impressive than Katrina! At first, I was stupid and thought that was part of her. TWC said they are also looking for signs of development with that one, too. Is there an invest on that wave?
