WxWatcher007 Posted Thursday at 07:45 PM Share Posted Thursday at 07:45 PM We have some light westerlies in that most recent batch of data from recon which is meaningful, but still, not terribly organized. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxWatcher007 Posted Friday at 12:30 AM Share Posted Friday at 12:30 AM Despite the IR appearance, it does look like 98L is organizing more now. Again, not a lot of time, but the NHC has upped the development odds given the trends we're starting to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, not a lot of time, but the NHC has upped the development odds given the trends we're starting to see. Southwestern Gulf (AL98): Recent geostationary and microwave satellite imagery indicates that shower and thunderstorm activity is showing some signs of organization with a small area of low pressure located over the southwestern Gulf. An earlier Air Force reconnaissance mission found that the system lacks a well-defined low-level circulation. The low is forecast to move west-northwestward to northwestward across the western Gulf during the next day or so, and environmental conditions appear generally favorable for further development. A tropical depression could form before this system moves inland over northeastern Mexico or southern Texas by late Friday. Regardless of development, locally heavy rainfall is possible along portions of northeastern Mexico and southern Texas over the next few days. Another Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate the system Friday morning. Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent. Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxWatcher007 Posted Friday at 04:57 AM Share Posted Friday at 04:57 AM Now we're seeing a burst of convection near the apparent center, and this may be particularly well timed should it sustain itself through the diurnal max. We'll see if this leads to TC genesis. Given the structural organization that seemed to be underway this evening, it probably increases the odds. This was a few hours ago before this burst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WxWatcher007 Posted Friday at 11:33 AM Share Posted Friday at 11:33 AM 98L is making one final push before reaching the coastline, with deep convection continuing to fire. Radar doesn’t show much organization imo but frictional convergence may help later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaWx Posted Friday at 02:46 PM Share Posted Friday at 02:46 PM The latest raw recon reports are showing SE winds to 43 mph and SSW winds to 32 mph fwiw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it doesn't, there is going to be some pretty heavy rains coming onshore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxWatcher007 Posted Friday at 03:19 PM Share Posted Friday at 03:19 PM Yeah that doesn't look like a TC to me despite the southwesterlies. That was a quick trip by recon lol. 98L is out of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per elsewhere Special TWO drops it to 20/20 so looks like it's not going to happen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
