that is what ive been looking at all along. here is somthing most people dont want to hear: after looking at a radar loop (http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/RT ... -loop.html) it seems that it could be heading in the direction of S. Florida


Yes that is because there is a strong western Atlantic Ridge right now to the north - like August. The GFS was showing the scenario a day or so ago - moving a "cutoff low" west towards FL into the GOM..

this is simply amazing for this time of year..simply amazing :eek:

Yes, I'd like to hear what they have to say -

I think they will not preclude the possibility of a depression forming here.

as far as the title, I would take out the quotes and add a question mark at the end to not mislead anybody.
