After comparing the 12z GFS and the 18z the low doesn't come up because of the suppression. The high is further south than 12z GFS. The positions that the high is from the 12z is what we want. The energy out west is important but that's not where the low will be coming out of. The low should actually be coming up at the tail end of that frontal boundary. See the moisture down in the western Gulf on the 18z? That's where the low should be coming up but it can't cause of that high is too far south. Some of the things from the 18z is not right IMO. The energy that you guys are looking at finely gets kicked down at 168-174. That wave is a separate threat from the 18z run.
