I think we'll have an invest by later tonight or early tomorrow.

That there is some serious convection.

The area to its southeast could merge with it. Signs of this
merging are apparent in a serious blow-up of convection.

I agree with you. That area looks like the most suspect area but watch tomorrow morning I turn out to be wrong.

Its the ETA model. I finally was able to read it after a megazoom in on the image. Its not a very good model at all with the tropics so dont pay too much attention to it.

That's anything but small lol.


But honestly, once it gets into the gulf everything changes. The scenario that is supposed to push it back thru Florida is a mere blah prediction 5 days out.

Then again it could stall out in the gulf and could become a monster.

This is the 18z GFS which shows a fairly strong low (1004 mbs) near the Florida Penninsula.The question is will it be a pure tropical system or a hybrid one.
