Are the aircraft identifiable on flightradar 24?

To me it looks like that area by Andros Island is moving north and will bypass us looking at the sat that gatorcane provided.I don't think we will get much out of this.

[SFLcane]

Still waiting on all this rain in SFL to take place thus far hit and miss showers. 3-4 inches forecasted

Military/gov't flightplans don't usually show up on flightradar 24

I honestly think this is a busted forecast because that vorticity is not moving NW, it's drifting north and bypassing us.

stroms are forming just east of south fl and further east could fill in plus this adds to the daytime heating still might happen but they keep moving that yellow x lol

I'll go with under and we need the rain here in Jupiter.

VIS satellite shows the vort near Andros taking on a more crescent shaped appearance, perhaps trying to spin up? 12z GFS still moves the whole weak gyre of vorticity across FL, partially into the GOM, and back over the state, meandering around until exiting NE on Sat. Seems like rain in FL is still a good bet.

[StarmanHDB]

About to fly into FLL from Charlotte, NC. Will it be "interesting"? Hmmmmmmm....

After watching 92L for the past few days it will be as interesting as watching concrete set.

To think that we have been tracking this invest since it left Africa. Across the whole Atlantic and can't even seem to make depression status.

Thanks google earth not showing it for some reason.

Anyone know why GE is not updating? Not working for me either

My site was moved to a new server and that stopped all my site's systems. I was too busy working on other tropical related things that I didn't even notice. If anyone ever notices an issue, contact me. (either by private message or my site's contact form) My web hosting provider fixed the issue and it works again.

If it ever happens again, data for Google Earth can be found on these sites that use my system:

Put me down for WAY under, please. Wouldn't be the first time tropical rainfall was over-estimated... just sayin'....

I'm seeing that as well. Looks more mid vort but it could end up being a llc genesis spot.

Yep and almost 100 pages of posts between discussion and models and we still have several more days before it is gone. I will be happy to see this invest go away.

Add me to the under 6.5 inches of rain. This looks to be a potential bust at least for coastal NE Palm Beach County.
