Cool! Nice description to help us amateurs find it, Paul! I zoomed in and animated the map and found it at about 30N 73W.

Interesting!

From the Melbourne discussion. I'm assuming this related. Pretty interesting to say the least.

FRI-SUN...
WX PATTERN REMAINS ON TRACK FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A CUTOFF LOW
ALONG THE MID ATLC COAST BY 12Z SAT. STRONG H25 JET BRANCH OVER THE
UPPER MID WEST WILL PUSH EAST INTO NEW ENGLAND. THIS JET WILL
TIGHTEN THE WIND/PRESSURE FIELD ON THE WEST SIDE OF A HI AMPLITUDE
H50-H25 TROF JUST OFF THE ERN SEABOARD. THE RESULTING INCREASE IN
UPR LVL DIVERGENCE OVER THE EAST COAST WILL SPIN UP A WEAK CLOSED
LOW OUT OF A THE SRN EXTENSION OF A DEPARTING STORM SYSTEM OVER ERN
CANADA AND THE GREAT LAKES.

THE NEW LOW IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN TRAPPED OVER THE SE U.S. THROUGH
THE WEEKEND. THE ATLC RIDGE WILL BLOCK THE LOW FROM MOVING E...
WHILE A STRONG CONTINENTAL RIDGE OVER WRN CANADA WILL PUSH ACROSS
THE NRN TIER STATES UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF STRONG H85-H30 ZONAL
FLOW. THE CONTINENTAL RIDGE WILL BLOCK THE LOW FROM ESCAPING TO THE
NORTH...AND MAY EVEN CAUSE IT TO RETROGRADE INTO THE GULF STATES.
RESULTING SFC AND STEERING FLOW WILL VEER FROM THE N/NE ON FRI TO
THE S/SW ON SUN. MOISTURE WILL GRADUALLY INCREASE AS THE WIND SHIFT
TAKES PLACE. AS THE WX PATTERN SHIFTS FROM LOW MOISTURE/NRLY FLOW
TO MODERATE MOISTURE/SWRLY FLOW...DIURNAL POPS WILL INCREASE FROM
10-30% ON FRI TO 50% AREAWIDE ON SUNDAY.

IMHO from the models, it appears that this system will race Northeastward--and it looks baroclinic not tropical in the models-correct?
