Yea...it'll pick up on it after it's there. The 248nm radar out of Brownsville is also showing rotation.

A lot of excited posts, but the majority of posts contain no real information. Hopefully we will have more substance in the posts as we progress through the season or you will be locking a lot of threads.


Agreed Garrett about that.Let's post more posts that can contribute to have more good discussion with anaylisis and not have one sentence,emoctions and one word posts.


Ya know thanks for posting that because I am at work here and anytime I go back to the forum to check it out there is 1 or 2 more pages. Then I have to go back through those pages and there is not that many informational posts. I do appriciate the graphics so I can see what were talking about as I have limited capabilities here as far as not having java.

Anyway, IMO we'll have to wait another 12 hours to see what happens with this but, if there is an apparent low level circulation, the convection continues to fire and the shear continues to relax I think it might be issued as an invest. Seems like it does have some banding features on the north and eastern side.

Where is the center in relation to the convection? Is it firing near there? It kind of looks like the thunderstorms are trying to fire around it but, there is too much shear and they get blown away.

Yea and with upper Low near Victoria moving north conditions should get a little more favorable for development....Looks to be a Hybrid system though if it develops.

For those members who might be joining the forum for the first time since last season the new rule about not allowing long page threads beyond the full 10 pages or 199 replies is now in effect for the 2006 season.As soon that mark is reached KFDM Meteorologist will create a new thread with the same title.I now will take out the words Breaking News.

Low-level steering map...appears that a W or NW movement would be likely at first:

Yes,that is part of the rule about making new threads after the previous one reaches the full 10 pages.

Bruce Katz on ABC26 in NOLA didn't even mention it. He just said an ULL near Texas and thunderstorms over the gulf.

Then why are the buoys showing a circulation at the surface?
