It's a very impressive/notable system. I don't really know what to expect out of it as of yet, but who knows; things can change.

The isolated showers we have in place here are actually moving west now, an indication of a large scale circulation to our south.

I wouldn't necessarily jump too much on it. It is a high shear environment; also, it is not an unusual feature for this time of year. Many similar systems pop up in a similar environment in that area this time of year and eventually fizzle. It is still attached to a trough, too, and there is some dry air to the west of it. That, combined with rather warmish cloudtops that have popped up for a while, would seem to indicate that it may persist a bit but eventually fizzle. I do see hints of a circulation; however, all the other synoptics are not that impressive for development (although I say some very slow and slight development, though not too much, may be slightly possible). If it hangs on, though, and deepens a bit more, we could see the beginnings of some development, likely in a Grace or Allison scenario and synoptic setup.

One item that many forget about Allison, is that she originated from a Cape Verde wave, and was not "homegrown."

Late tonight and early Wednesday will be the key on if it develops. It may not, something to watch though.

Isn't this type of scenario that the GFS continued to show and call on just earlier, or at least something similar to this?

Is this thing heading to TX for sure if it develops? or could it try and break out into the Gulf?

Frank B. on channel 2 pointed out "a low" east of Brownsville, but said nothing of anything forming at the surface.
