Believe it's a little further east than that, but still can't tell for sure. There is definitely noticeable turning in the lower level clouds again on satellite. Looks much better than earlier.


check both radar directions. its not east. :)

I have. I've seen a couple of different places where I believe it could be...just nothing certain yet.

go with what is closest to the radar site :P also check velocities and draw vector lines from the two radars.

Yeah, I feel like that area is going to be the area to watch. It has the most spin, and the strongest convection. Even if the low level "center" is slightly further west, it will or should get pulled back into that convection.

It's possible. I'm not going to write off any location with a weak/developing center.

The Euro has really backed off of the rainfall potential in the SE Texas area, with only 1-4" of rain, with Beaumont getting up to 5". All of it looks like pretty manageable rainfall amounts.

Also take a look. the cloud lines in this case are very clear..

http://weather.cod.edu/satrad/exper/?pa ... =undefined

toggles the slider back and forth.. I roughly drew lines over the cloud lines that are distinct. dont go off the image below.. actually use the slider and you will see the low level curvature that matches with radar. ..

Clearly all the significant convection is off to it's north and east so I'm not sure we're a lot closer to having it tagged a storm yet. At least the low level structure is becoming much more identifiable though.

To a T.D. perhaps, i'm thinking maybe 8:00am. I just don't see NHC going straight to T.S. any earlier then 11:00 a.m. at the earliest (but am leaning more toward evening time)

By the way (and obviously for our other thread), the EURO is out. Looking a tad stronger at landfall than previous.

Given their verbage earlier. if they determine it is a closed circ. it will likely go straight to TS..but who knows sometimes :P

it is literally happening in front of our eyes.. those of us who are still awake lol

the lower keys are going to wake up to a little surprise. :P

Also pretty funny to watch all the shear just disappear ahead of it... all the people saying not to watch the shear analysis ( always use it and watch trends) . earlier today the shear in the SE eastern gulf was 40kts.. now almost zero..

Happy birthday bro.

As some of you know, i am in key west. Just spotty showers, border line squalls here tonite. This evening we had those low tropical clouds. .

Just a storm in cylclogenesis passing by...we might get some strong squalls but the impact is minimal here.

Hopefully future gordo does not RI and give nola an an expected surprise.

Thanks Jarrod :) . yeah the keys are not going to have much more than TS gusts but still likely more than most were expecting once that east side of the sytems comes through in the morning.

Yeah I posted earlier that you can see it lessening ahead of its path, compared to earlier. Still not sure why I get called out for posting current conditions. I never post that I think it's going to stay like that. I always watch shear closely and sometimes you can pick up hints of a trend taking form.

Maybe I'm just really tired, but it seems to have slowed down some in the last several hours.
