A low pressure system is over
eastern Texas and the adjoining waters along the Texas Gulf of Mexico
coast. This low is under high shear, about 25 knots, and is not
tropical. Shear is expected to remain high, 20 - 30 knots, over the
next five days. The low should remain non-tropical during this time,
but will bring much-needed heavy rains to drought-stricken south Texas.
Flooding problems may also occur, and flash flood watches have been
posted for six counties in extreme South Texas. |

South Texas Disturbance moving out into the Gulf. Please stayed tuned over the next few days. This probably will not greatly develop as it moves northeast. Please get you kit's and plans ready just in case. This will probably become a big rain maker..

FOR THE NORTH ATLANTIC...CARIBBEAN SEA AND THE GULF OF MEXICO...
SATELLITE IMAGERY...RADAR DATA...AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE
THAT THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE NORTH CENTRAL GULF
OF MEXICO ABOUT 75 MILES SOUTH OF MOBILE ALABAMA HAS CHANGED LITTLE
IN ORGANIZATION DURING THE LAST FEW HOURS. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT
OF THIS SYSTEM IS BECOMING LESS LIKELY...SINCE THE CENTER WILL BE
MOVING ONSHORE LATER THIS MORNING OR EARLY AFTERNOON. THE AIR
FORCE RESERVE HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT MISSION SCHEDULED TO
INVESTIGATE THE LOW LATER TODAY HAS BEEN CANCELED. THERE IS NOW A
LOW CHANCE...LESS THAN 30 PERCENT...OF THIS SYSTEM BECOMING A
TROPICAL CYCLONE BEFORE IT REACHES THE COAST LATER TODAY.
REGARDLESS OF DEVELOPMENT...HEAVY RAINS AND OCCASIONALLY GUSTY
WINDS ARE EXPECTED ALONG PORTIONS OF THE NORTH-CENTRAL AND
NORTHEAST GULF COAST THROUGH THE DAY...AND INTERESTS IN THIS AREA
SHOULD MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THE SYSTEM.

SATELLITE IMAGES INDICATE THAT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED
WITH A BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER THE NORTH-CENTRAL GULF OF
MEXICO HAVE INCREASED TODAY. SOME SLOW DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM
IS POSSIBLE AS IT MOVES SLOWLY NORTHWARD...AND AN AIR FORCE RESERVE
HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT WILL INVESTIGATE THE LOW TOMORROW...IF
NECESSARY. |

It is not often that we talk about development of a
tropical cyclone in the Atlantic at this time of year. Once in a while,
it does happen and this year is one of those times. For several days,
computer models have suggested the development of low pressure
somewhere near Florida. Earlier this afternoon, the NHC issued a special tropical weather outlook
which replaces the special tropical disturbance statement that was used
for many years. The special outlook referenced a weak area of low
pressure that has formed over eastern Cuba and the southeast Bahamas.
The statement goes on to say that there is a fairly low chance of
continued development right now. None the less, a Hurricane Hunter
plane is tasked to further investigate the area tomorrow if need be.
The low and associated weather will bring unsettled weather to the
Bahamas, Cuba and Florida over the next several days. In fact, Florida
is being hammered by rain
this evening due to an unrelated weather feature. The entire complex
system of low pressure areas and a dying front in the region will mean
that heavy rains, high seas and rough surf are in store for Florida and
possibly surrounding states over the remainder of the week. This will
do much to relieve the dry conditions but without the severe effects of
a tropical storm or hurricane. Be aware, however, of changing weather
conditions, especially along the beaches, where rip currents could be
an issue. As always, refer to your local NWS forecast office for
details on your specific area.
As a side note, the low pressure area is also known as "90L". Some of
you know exactly what this means and why. For those that don't, let me
explain. I wrote NHC forecaster and chief of the hurricane specialists
unit, James Franklin, to shed some light on the subject. He tells me
that the NHC will label or designate an area of disturbed weather as an
"invest" for the Atlantic and east Pacific (the Joint Typhoon Warning
Center may also do this for the east Pacific if they wish). This means
that the area is tagged and then labeled with a number, 90-99 (then it
starts over), and the letter "L" for Atlantic (or "E" for east
Pacific). Upon this designation, additional resources such as microwave
satellite data and computer model guidance, are allocated to the
suspect area for additional investigation. So, when we talk of "90L",
etc. this season, you now know what this means. |
