So I'm looking at 25N / 60-65W:
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/tatl/flash-wv.html
The closest Bouy:
Wind Direction (WDIR): E ( 80 deg true )
Wind Speed (WSPD): 13.6 kts
Wind Gust (GST): 17.5 kts
Wave Height (WVHT): 3.9 ft
Dominant Wave Period (DPD): 7 sec
Average Period (APD): 4.9 sec
Mean Wave Direction (MWD): ESE ( 122 deg true )
Atmospheric Pressure (PRES): 30.16 in
Pressure Tendency (PTDY): -0.03 in ( Falling )
Air Temperature (ATMP): 81.5 °F
Water Temperature (WTMP): 82.8 °F
Dew Point (DEWP): 73.2 °F
Heat Index (HEAT): 86.7 °F
It's getting stormy but NO surface winds from the WEST to kick this baby off.
(Moved to a more appropriate Forum.)

At 11/18Z an upper level low was centered near 25N 57W and it was moving west to west southwest at 20 knots. Not too much convection with it at the moment, although it is moving into an area of increasing moisture. As noted above, no surface reflection is evident yet.

It looks like 'evil eyes' on the WV loop with the two ULLs (the other one around 30N 35W and the dry slot in between. The ULL at 60W looks pretty impressive for its symmetry if not its moisture. Moving as it is in my general direction it might present some interesting scenarios will all of the moisture on the FL peninsula right now.

It's fascinating to watch moisture fill and the ULL change it's look. Hard not to watch it. Nothing else spinning in the Atlantic Basin.
Wish there was more discussion on systems that have formed from this scenario... S L O W L Y over time.

At the risk of injecting speculative analysis into a discussion, I noted yesterday that radar and visible suggested that a general low level cyclonic spin was evident over south Fla. Today that seems to be now in southern Polk/ northern Highlands Counties and drifting west. It seems more evident today and is influencing low level movement of clouds and rain. Obviously nothing imminent going on here but, worth watching?

definitely worth watching... consistency is everything... see what it looks like once it's over water
in years like this... things often form close in

Good Morning Folks,
I see the 1014 surface low up in the crook of the panhandle.
But the rotation associated with the wave just North of the Yucatan seems interesting.

A signature of a low pressure is present on radar just off the coast of Ft. Lauderdale, similar to the small one present a few days ago which came ashore in Palm Beach. Although nothing will form, it just gives us something to look at.

The one over Georgia sure gave us a bucketful of rain here in Central Florida. We've had over 5 inches since last Saturday. That dry slot northeastward through the Bahamas is supposed to move over us and dry things out until Sunday....and we need it!!

The ULL that wouldn't go away.
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/eaus/flash-wv.html
It started out over the Atlantic and has been trolling along for a week now, maybe longer. It is adding all kinds of instability to our upper atmosphere in Central FL and we are getting huge amounts of rain. My grass is defineatly digging it.
