OMG, 22 billion gallons, that is some faulty valve! Glad there wasn't a meter attached, that'd be a huuuuuge bill. Nonetheless, that is lots of water!

Me neither, I don't think much will develop. Upper Low, perhaps a tropical system with some LLC but who knows. I probably shouldnt speculate like that though, there are a few favorable developments including a more stable environment. We'll see.

As the upper level trough splits, it favors a upper low which we see now, beyond that right now would merely be speculation. Wait and see, perhaps some heavy rain this weekend for Fla/Ga...

Well, Accuweather is sounding more bullish on this system... the headline on their web site now says "Watch for Beryl this weekend"... they are referring to the system near the bahamas.

FWIW Derek, he's basically saying the same thing you are:

"and I would think conditions a couple of days down the road may become at least a little bit more favorable"
