Circulation near Brownsville, Tx Coast..........

[Dean4Storms]

Yep, see the spin at the edge of the convection at the beginning and then going underneath convection. Still see no westerly winds from any buoy reports so it is evidently above the surface.

[Dean4Storms]

I take that back, there were some westerly winds for about an hour from this buoy right under the rotation!!

See from 9am to 9:50am

[Dean4Storms]

I see the spin near 95W 27N.


42019 Buoy's location.......

27.913 N 95.353 W (27°54'48" N 95°21'10" W)

[Dean4Storms]

Could be a very small surface circulation at that location, will have to watch to see what it does!

Just visible on Long range radar from Brownsville......

If the convection can persist or maintain itself for a good duration in the short term, it could get a bit more interesting to watch this feature.

Remains to be seen though. Remember, the convection really waned from this area last night. However, the circulation is offshore now so we await what may transpire. Big IFs though of course.

Is this going to make its way to land or is it moving southeast into the mid Gulf?

[TexWx]

It appears the whole thing is just getting stretched....

[TexWx]

I think "elongated mess," is the term I was going for

[OuterBanker]

Geeze where are the blobologist when you need them?

Couple weeks ago we had a wonderful llc that never had any mid and upper level support.

Yesterday we had this wonderful mid level blob off Tx with no lower level support.

Where oh where will they all line up first, that is the question.

With any luck this "mess" will travel due east and give Fla a good soaking.

I read that Ft Lauderdale was a whopping 21 inches below normal, and I thought it was bad here.

I have a bit of rain moving west

IMO, its the best dang blob of nothingness I've every seen. Its as big as any normal size storm. Imagine all that fresh water

[southerngale]

I wish it would move into Texas and bring us some rain!

Buoy east of Brownsville down to 1007.7mb

IF the shear would relax it might have a chance, but I don't think it's forecast to do that

[tropicwatch]

We have had a little bit of rain with this front in NW Florida but we could use that slow moving blob to come across us to really help with the drought.

Maybe a hint of rotation off the Brownsville coast, it looks suspicious.

[Ptarmigan]

I wish it would move into Texas and bring us some rain!

Yes, we could use the rain. If the wind shear relaxed that could develop.

I wonder if it will all fizzle like last night.
