It wouldn’t be the LSU home opener week without a disturbance in the gulf.

Our Deep Thunder model (from IBM) is indicating (amongst other models) a weak Tropical Storm to impact the New Orleans + vicinity area later this week. Note this model continues to develop this storm over land, which suggests the "Brown Ocean" phenomena.

sounds like something you'd talk to your doctor about after visiting the bathroom

Basically there's so much water instead of land, it could possibly allow the storm to strengthen when it hits "land"

The brown ocean effect is an observed weather phenomenon involving tropical cyclones after landfall. They are commonly expected to lose energy when they make landfall, but instead maintain strength or intensify over land surfaces.[1] While these systems are highly common in the United States and China, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) names Australia the most conducive environment after 30 years of research. In Australia, such storm systems are called agukabams

Same thing, AL91 is just another way it's named.

I'm sorry but I'm really skeptical of this. I think it's going to form earlier than that depending on how fast it moves. I'll bet it turns into something tomorrow. Looking at radar today even with the heavy shear you can definitely tell it looks like the thing is trying to organize itself. I'm hoping it does take until at least Tuesday then hits land Wednesday.
Good news here to note is the Euro has it weaker than yesterday which was running into a lot more bad scenarios. Also, looking at it past land it might be a real problem for Texas with flooding. Those poor souls...

It's still a wave. Not even a closed circulation.

I see models moving it through pretty fast. Seems like most areas get 6” or so over a 72 hour period. No biggie.

I saw that early this morning. It looked as if there is some surface circulation going on.
