Dr. Masters stated that a sounding from Guadeloupe found a 30kt jet from the E at 700mb...sneaky midlevel shear....
Also, last night's upper-air balloon sounding from Guadeloupe is showing the presence of a narrow jet of 30 knot winds from the east at 700 mb (3000 meters). The relatively crude measures of shear we use, taking the difference between the wind at 200 mb and 850 mb, will miss seeing these sort of this layers of shearing winds that can have a strong negative impact on the organization of a developing tropical disturbance. It is apparent from visible satellite imagery that shear is causing some disruption to the southwest side of 94L, and that there is no surface circulation. The storm also has fewer low-level spiral bands than yesterday.
