Re: What is this?

Clark posted an excellant explanation.

I checked the latest, 00Z, maps. Both surface and 500mb. And couldn't find any map or discussion with a feature in that area.
Some of the OPC's maps are showing a Low to the NE of that area with a stationary front back to the west.
It could be between the SFC and 500 mb level and just isn't being reflected on the maps.

I'll look some more. Out of curiosity.
