This will be an interesting case study of a system that might be too small for the global models to properly resolve. The 12z models aren't too interested in this system and all of them appear to prevent the wave axis from rolling over and closing off a surface circulation.

12z Euro for 12z tomorrow shows some light and variable winds right near the coast. Enough to close this off for a name? The background flow across the Gulf doesn't look like there is a TS down there.



12z GFS for the same time. Even less of a kink in the flow than the Euro.



The system lost all it's convection overnight and there were no real signs of a surface circulation this morning before the current convective burst. It takes numerous rounds of convection to close off a surface circulation along a wave axis. The cloud tops associated with the MLC are currently warming and it appears that the most active convection is well NE of the area that would be favored for closing off a LLC.



All that said, the NHC is convinced this will get organized enough to get a name. It is certainly possible that the global models are just missing the system do to the resolution restraints.


Actually, a really good short range forecast from the global model runs yesterday for this morning. Recon found light winds near the coast but overall the wind pattern is dominated by the background flow around the ridge. NHC still might try to put a name on this later but it will be a stretch as the southern end of the wave axis will be moving in land as the day goes on.

GFS is also back to picking up the system that put the storm into Mobile a few days ago. It develops it around the same time over Western Cuba. Very little ensemble support on it, but it has popped back up on the operational.

There's seriously something wrong this season, not sure what though. The models have been pretty inconsistent from run to run. Normally by this time, we'd at least have multiple runs showing very similar outcomes. I'm not a naysayer and I'm certainly not a season canceler but something is off this year.

Lot of talk about 3rd year La Nina's that result in this type of Atlantic season, so maybe this is what's happening.

ATX Cocina is 100x better than Matt's although it's not exactly texmex. It's a little more interior style but not in an unfamiliar way. The happy hour only tacos are a bonus.

Loro needs another vote. Partnership between Tyson Cole (Uchi) and Franklin bbq.

Homeslice pizza

Casino El Camino burgers. Take 'em to 6th St cuz they'll end up there eventually.

Didn’t stop them from naming Colin after it was on land.

Intensity guidance did very well with this one.

Last season used a lot of names but it wasn’t until late August that there was a real storm. Hurricane Grace was the first substantial system not becoming legitimate until August 20th.

The only thing different with this season so far is we haven’t had a few more fish tropical storms like 2021 had.

2021 didn’t really start until late August. ACE was basically 0 until then.

Moral of the story… you still can’t say anything one way or the other about this season. But a quiet season would be a nice change.

I'm not going to post the 18z GFS because I think it would just be piling on you at this point.

It is out there. And it is Delta's fault for anyone who wants to see it.

While happy hour it is the lead wave i think. Yes I know it will change thousands of times between now and 384 hours.

It is. It is the wave that the GFS just won't let die. That is the most interesting thing about it right now.

It also develops that wave earlier than it has to this point. It forms over Cape Verde in this run.

We need to start a gofundme for Delta's medical bills of one hits Louisiana this season.
