Re: Don't use the 850mb vorticity!

I'll agree.

But the higher levels (700mb, 500mb, etc) show vorticity lessening with altitude.

To me, that is a good hint of a TC.

The models never show 925mb or surface until you see the other ones focusing on the CONUS area.

144 hours is still way out to be very reliable.

Anyway.  The trop wave interacting with the TUTT is now firing convection at 20N 49W.

Shear is dropping in the Bahamas.

Could we see development from the wave as it gets on the SW side of the TUTT; maybe in the Bahamas or NE Carb.

Maybe the models missed the boat?
