Thanks, Ed! For the past couple of days I've noticed at least one 'micro-cyclone' form just south and perhaps a little west of the Head of Passes - and then stealthily head towards Shreveport, Louisiana, rapidly dissipating over land. I'm guessing that what currently seems to be forming south the Delta is going to be doing pretty much the same thing (if slightly more obviously this time around).

Anyway, I'm also guessing that virtually all factors relevant to the formation of similar weather in the same general location (even if only temporarily) are already detectable by modern science. In a nutshell, I'm hoping that the NOAA, NWS, NHC, and friends would someday be providing 'cartoons' tracking that sort of activity too - in addition to their wonderful 'cartoons' featuring IR, WV, etc. And thanks again!
