Upper shear increasing over 91L?

#1 Postby cycloneye » Mon Aug 09, 2004 6:52 am

A 1012 mb low centered in the S Gulf of Mexico near 22n86w along
the surface trof that extends from 20n87w through the Yucatan
Channel to 25n85w. This system is the remnant of T.D. Two and
has the potential for development into a tropical cyclone. Radar
images from Cancun Mexico satellite presentation is not as
impressive as 6 hours ago. Upper level shear has increased over
the last few hours. Small area of scattered moderate/strong
convection is along the N coast of the Yucatan Peninsula within
a 60 nm radius of 22n87w.

A little fork has appeared at this mornings discussion at 8 AM.What do you think about the discussions not so bullish tone?Recon this afternoon will say the truth of what is going on beneath the convection and around the system.

Looks like a partially exposed LLC in the first visible shots this morning. The convection will probably refire over the center soon though.

This afternoon's recon should answer the question once and
for all whether we have a TD or more in the making.

The Axxial shear from the high should relax by a factor of pi but the shear does hinder initial development a little. Guess they initialize the models a little further west..
