The broad Gulf area is now up to 70/70% for development while the Atlantic area is 10/30% for development. Neither are marked as an invest area yet, but the Gulf may be tagged later today. Texas should watch the Gulf area for a large rain event. Atlantic is FL through the Carolinas depending on how soon (if at all) the system develops, sooner implies further north.

The slowly organizing disturbance in the western Caribbean is closer than ever to becoming a tropical depression. Over the course of the last 72 hours, this broad area of low pressure has become better organized, with progressively more favorable upper-level winds aloft, and very warm sea surface temperatures below. Pressures have now been falling a bit over the most recent 24 hours, and winds continue picking up.

All indications are that Invest 93L has a better-than-average chance of becoming our next named tropical cyclone. Steering currents favor a track to the east-northeast to northeast, and it could impact Florida and/or, as well as many of the islands to its east-northeast, whether or not a tropical storm forms.

Should Invest 93L develop into a tropical cyclone that tracks to the ENE to NE, upper-level winds could conspire with the steering flow to induce quite a bit of exhaust, and this cyclone could have a very good chance of intensifying rapidly at one point or another, not at all unlike Omar of just last month.
