Disturbance near Florida

This area near Florida is looking more impressive as the day goes on and Floater #2 is located over it. Any thoughts on what may come of this?

^^Floater #2 Sat. loop^^

One thing I have noticed is a strong easterly breeze here in Merritt Island today. I wonder if this has anything to do with the disturbance or if it is just a stronger than normal sea breeze.

Floater #2 has been over that area for quite sometime now......

So I guess they're expecting something?

No, they are just not moving it.

If anything, it looks to me like there is a bit of spin off the weast coast tip...The last few frames of the visible definately have a spin to them..

What do I know though? :roll:

Here is another view. I'll be curious to see what it does tonight.

I agree the area on the west is the area to watch.

Yeah, maybe at mid-level too. Surface pressures are high.

I looked at the floater. It's upper.

I would keep an eye on it. Below is what is mentioned of it in the afternoon NHC discussion.

...DISCUSSION...
GULF OF MEXICO...
MAIN FEATURE IN THE GULF THIS AFTERNOON IS UPPER TROF JUST WEST
OF SW FLORIDA IN THE SE GULF OF MEXICO. BUOYS/QUIKSCAT
INDICATING SOME SURFACE REFLECTION WITH TROF AXIS AND CYCLONIC
TURNING OF WINDS EVIDENT. HAVE ANALYZED TROF ACCESS FROM 27N83W TO 24N85W. SCATTERED MODERATE CONVECTION WITH THIS TROF IS
LOCATED IN THE SW GULF BETWEEN 24/26N AND 84/81W. SCATTERED
MODERATE CONVECTION IS ALSO EXTENDING EAST THROUGH SOUTH FLORIDA
AND THE FAR SW ATLANTIC/BAHAMAS...IN CONNECTION WITH THE TROF IN
THE SW GULF AND A WEAK UPPER RIDGE IN THE AREA EXTENDING SOUTH
THROUGH CUBA. ISOLATED MODERATE CONVECTION HAS DEVELOPED ON THE
WEST SIDE OF THE TROF AXIS SOUTH OF THE LOUISIANA COAST THROUGH
25N. SCATTERED MODERATE/ISOLATED STRONG CONVECTION PERSISTS IN
THE BAY OF CAMPECHE DUE TO UPPER RIDGE EXTENDING WEST THROUGH S
MEXICO. ASIDE FROM THE WEAK TROF IN THE SW GULF SFC PATTERN
RELATIVELY QUIET WITH LIGHT WINDS PERSISTING ON THE SW SIDE OF
THE BERMUDA HIGH.

Read the discussion from the NHC and you may change your mind about it being entirely upper only.

I did see some SW winds on the west coast of florida, but pressures are like 1014mb to 1015mb. There's does appear to be a surface trough

Key West radar is looking a little more interesting this evening:

If something did develop off the west coast; would it move ashore into FL? or would it go north toward the panhandle? or would it go west?
