That's the low that moved off the SE coast last week, and the same feature the GFS showed as a stationary 1007 or 1005 mb low that eventually weakens and merges with a trough to the northeast...

This one is zzzzzzzzz/boring, an appropriate way to end this mostly nonexciting season if it turns out to tbe the last one.

This low passed right over Cincinnati earlier in the week, gave us 2 inches of rain. Tropical transition would be interesting, but won't happen unless it moves further south, in my opinion.

http://tropic.ssec.wisc.edu/real-time/m ... /main.html

MIMIC-TPW seems to be showing the start of some kind of transition. Spin slowing down, moisture on the increase.

I'd say chances of it becoming an STS are up to 80-90% within the next 24-36 hrs. NHC is giving themselves only a 40% chance of naming it, however. It's certainly much better organized than Jose was. All it needs is for that convection to continue another 4-8 hrs near the center.

:uarrow: So do I. It looks well on its way to become a subtropical cyclone, I always find the development of these systems very interesting.

Meh, the NHC should've gone with 40 or even 50% percent at 1 AM, and red by now. It already looked subtropical around 1 AM, and now it has the perfect, classic subtropical appearance.

Yeah, unless conditions get hostile real fast we'll get a STS out of this.

This guy is looking strong enough for an upgrade, I would think.

It's not about strength. It was pretty much a gale center within 12-18 hours after it emerged offshore the SE U.S. coast. The big question is how much "tropicality" the system has - i.e. whether it should be classified as an STC. You'll find that these systems that don't cleanly fall into one category will cause the most consternation, hand-wringing, and NHC-second-guessing of any cyclones on here. Like others, I think this one is well on its way to transitioning to a STC.
