It could be relocating - but the NW quad of the distorted LLC definitely turns up over land by the Alabama/Florida border. That is unmistakable on visible...

A few less than it takes to build a bonfire maybe?

*doh*

Anyway, we've been watching this area since last Saturday as a surface trof has been draped 60 miles either side of the Gulf Coast. Surface lows have formed and existed short-term between south of Morgan City and south of Pensacola almost every day. Today's is due south of the AL/FL line and shows up @ 1017mb @ 1pm CDT.

Preasure still high... Plenty of convection

Could this be the same area that is about to flood the Alabama area right now with rain?

It's storming here with some of the moisture rotating in from the NE (not a typical direction for storms to come from in N.O. during the Summer).

Those Quikscat passes are hours old. Any circulation has likely moved NE and onshore. The latest satellite shows warmer cloud tops. This non-tropical system is going to continue to be a rain and thunderstorm producer.
