Re: Ex Invest 99L in Western Atlantic
Yeah these things can become favorable when they turn back into the flow in which they rode over and get assistance from a frontal boundary.

Re: Ex Invest 99L in Western Atlantic
somethings happen here.........what it is.........ain't exactly clear.......
looks like we had a LLC with convection for a while (noaa station 41047 winds turned SW to N) seemed like it was about 60 miles south of distrubance, but now the convection seems to be building and further SE .

Re: Ex Invest 99L in Western Atlantic
Per the loop above and steering currents, it looks like its going to get caught up in the flow.

Don't get your hopes very high when this kind of situation occurs. It's being baroclinicly enhanced, meaning, this not because it's becoming tropically more organized but because the same mechanisms producing the convection along the front are helping the trough or disturbance produce convection. If this were an organized tropical cyclone you would expect intensification first (e.g. Noel) and then it would be absorbed by the cold front and dissipate.

Re: Ex Invest 99L in Western Atlantic
I've seen a lot of weaker systems like this not be absorbed by the cold-front, but instead race along the mean steering flow (the low-level WAA jet), and croak in the North Atlantic after overrunning (along with the low-level jet) a surface warm-frontal boundary.HURAKAN wrote:If this were an organized tropical cyclone you would expect intensification first (e.g. Noel) and then it would be absorbed by the cold front and dissipate.

Fish-storm. It's really racing off to the northeast now, and with that front barreling off-shore, I see little chance of this having a prayer of doubling back.cpdaman wrote:honeyko what are your latest thoughts now that we are once again free at last to speaketh about this abomination.
If I am lucky (but not Bermuda, which it will pass very close by if NE path doesn't waver), it'll pull down TD or TS before 2pm Sat or whatever (I'll have to go back and check), earning me a steak-dinner. Mmmm....steak.

Re: Ex Invest 99L in Western Atlantic
The Atlantic must not be favorable right now because almost always something like this over those waters spins.

How on Earth can you be disappointed when we have already had 5 named storms and a major long tracker in July? It's only August 9...

If you're disapointed with this I can only give you two suggestions
1. Try the WPAC
2. Try another hobby

You've got to be kidding me. Do you pay attention to the replies you get? Here's just one by me, a few days ago. There's a gazillion more by other members. It might benefit you to not just post, but also read.

"go poof just like the others"
Why do you say things like this? We've already had FIVE named storms and it's ONLY August 6th. The average date to get the fifth named storm is September 5th. (based on 1944-2005)
Do some research on past seasons. 2008 has been a very busy season so far.

Re: Ex Invest 99L in Western Atlantic
The broad Atlantic is generally capped pretty tight in August. When the sun begins swinging back toward the equator heading into the equinox, the atmospheric heat bulge will follow it, loosening things up a bit as lapse rates steepen.Sanibel wrote:The Atlantic must not be favorable right now because almost always something like this over those waters spins.
Kids these days, so impatient. They should have been there in 1983, when the first storm was late in coming, brought a bit of excitement and a promise of more to come....but then you'd have been better off if you just crawled up in a den with a moose haunch and hibernated all the way to 1985.Scorpion wrote:How on Earth can you be disappointed when we have already had 5 named storms and a major long tracker in July?
