Re: Gulf Low

My earlier post indicated a clear circulation near the convection during the early morning hours. This circulation is now less evident on the latest IR loops... however there appears to be some rotation associated with the convection to the south of the evident LLCC. Possibly this may be associated with a mid-level circulation, or perhaps the whole broad low has several embedded circulations. For evidence of this turning in the convection GO HERE, set the animation instructions and then click near where the current LLCC is.

As conditions improve i still think this feature will eventually lead to our first TD of the season. Although conditions have been unfavourable the LLCC is quite tight and well defined so there is still a chance!
