North GOM Watch
Posted by
JAC on 6/30/2009, 12:12 pm
Pressures are low, running around 1009mb
Surface obs show east winds not too far inland and west winds on some of the buoys south in the water.
There is a 850mb vorticity bulls-eye.
Convection is firing along a stalled front.
Shear is light.
Anti-cyclone to the SW in the BOC.
Could be an LLC at 29N 87W with 4000 CAPE just to the SE.
No convective cap in place.
This is the juice 93L would have seen if it got up into this neck of the woods.
