Bear with me on getting the ID numbers right on the storms:
The swirl that is between the Yuctan and Cuba, Is in an extremely interesting environment. The remnants of the cold front seem to have stalled. I am making an intuitive call and scientific observation of my animals, insects and general atmosphere from central Florida. IF a storm blows up in the GOM this energy is about the best there is for that to happen. It may not be spinning in the correct direction yet, but, I don't think that will prevent a surface low from forming. I seem to remember another storm in 2001 Gabrielle, forming in that area. No one believed she would make it and she was on our back porch in no time at all.(other way darn you, other way) :?:
