Reminds me of Bertha of 2008: Slow-moving around Bermuda as a strong tropical storm with a large eye feature.

Almost looks like Epsilon.

Though, I have to ask this question...is Leslie even tropical anymore? She looks more subtropical than tropical. Thunderstorms far from the center (none over the center or to the east), an extended wind field, etc.

I agree, Leslie does look more subtropical than tropical. I wonder if it will be reclassified as an STS in post-analysis?

It should be pulling away from Bermuda and won't be threatening any other land masses any time soon...plus it is a VERY long flight. They would only have the fuel for one, maybe two passes at most. Not worth the expenses.

Seriously, Leslie is extremely boring and uneventful to watch - the same 60 mph every advisory. :x

That's better for Bermuda and Newfoundland though. Sorry it isn't amusing enough for you I suppose.

Florida1118, I guess the word "opinion" does not exist in any of your posts.

Becomes a hurricane again but I wonder if it will be the last advisory. Either way, Newfoundland will have to watch it.
