Re: Ex-Colin Flares Up Again

Ex-Colin continues to have a decent satellite signature. Concentrated area of lightning now being visible on the overnight visible satellite imagery. Area is circular and resembles a CDO type structure.
I was somewhat surprised that RECON flew the system but given it's satellite presentation it appears that NHC wanted to make sure that it was not a tropical cyclone. RECON did find Tropical storm force winds in the NE Quad of the system remnants... but no closed circulation.
This system is being closely watched, as evidenced by the RECON flight, satellite floater and models continuing to generate track data.



Models continue to take the remains out to sea and somewhat toward Bermuda.

92L is barely a honorable mention right now and the models continue to track it toward the Belize/ Yucatan Peninsula and into Northeastern Mexico.
Yet another tropical systems possibly going ashore in NE Mexico.

Northern GOM may need watching as several outflow boundaries have crossed through the MS/ LA Coastal areas over the last two days and into the Northern GOM. Not likely to develop anything but might get an extra glance or two.
