They must classify this at next advisory time. It has 1007mb pressure, a full windfield, falling pressures, and is over very, very warm waters. This thing could blow up quickly. I know the environment is marginal at best, but with the water so warm and deepening occuring already, it should be classified immediately.

Agree think this needs to be upgraded. This remines me a bit of Gabrielle which become a weak hurricane as it came ashore near venice almost the same time.

Do you guys think this will be upgraded to depression at 5pm. I don't think they will even though I think it should be. Pressure 1006mb...sustained winds 33kts...gusts 40-45kts at buoy 42003. We shall see....

You would think so with such close proximity to land but they seem to be slow lately.

Actually, I want to see it as well. Persistance. This INVEST is going do one of these:
1. "Go to sleep" after nightfall
2. Bomb big time over night
This probably won't be upgraded at 5:00 PM but the next should raise some concern about it. Those buoy reading are VERY impressive out there for such an bad environment this system has to develop in. Indications are is that by the time this nears the west Florida coast the upper-level winds may lighten up some. This one could get as strong as 75-80 knots maximum. We'll be watching.

Don't know how much more persistance they need, it's been cooking down there for 3 days already.
