GOM Convection
      #94273 - Wed May 01 2013 01:17 AM

A strong convective burst is noted in the central Gulf of Mexico along an upper level trough. A weak surface reflection is also noted near 24N 89W at 01/04Z. System is moving eastward and will provide unsettled weather conditions over the eastern GOM and the Florida peninsula for the remainder of the week. Currently this is a non-tropical system and expected to remain non-tropical. A weak surface low is expected to move toward the southwest coast of the Florida peninsula later in the week.
