I definitely think this will develop. Probably we will see a storm like Chris last year, but maybe a little weaker. It already has gale-force winds.

Latest image. Appears to be acquiring that subtropical look characterised by relatively shallow convection and being generally broad.

Up to 40%/70%!

A NON-TROPICAL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM LOCATED OVER THE CENTRAL ATLANTIC OCEAN ABOUT 750 MILES NORTHEAST OF THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS CONTINUES TO PRODUCE WINDS TO GALE FORCE. THE ASSOCIATED SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS INCREASED AND BECOME A LITTLE BETTER ORGANIZED NEAR THE BROAD CIRCULATION CENTER...AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS APPEAR CONDUCIVE FOR THIS LOW TO ACQUIRE SUBTROPICAL OR TROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS DURING THE NEXT FEW DAYS WHILE IT MOVES SLOWLY NORTHWARD TO NORTHWESTWARD. THIS SYSTEM HAS A MEDIUM CHANCE...40 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A SUBTROPICAL OR TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS...AND A HIGH CHANCE...70 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A SUBTROPICAL OR TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 5 DAYS.

I am certain that this will be upgraded to Melissa upon classification. It has tropical storm-force winds! :ggreen:

Pressure is dropping fast. Maybe it will be <1000 mbar when it forms. Impressive late-season system.

The SHIPS is forecasting this to peak at 87 knots - a Category 2. That would be amazing if it strengthens to this and becomes our strongest storm, just a week or so before the official end of the season.

This could be a little surprise, most of the models deepen it a lot in terms of pressure, a hurricane is a possibility IMO.

I agree...given the fact that it has a medium chance of development in 48 hours. If it were a model storm 300 hours away, then I'd have problems believing it. But it is in favourable conditions with light shear and sufficiently warm waters (for a subtropical cyclone).

what if this season in the Atlantic is doomed for tropical systems only? haha would be nice to see a subtropical storm spinning in open waters....

A wind speed of 35 knots and a pressure of 1001 mbar is impressive for a system that is merely a consolidating invest. I think this will be very unique when it forms.

A LARGE AREA OF CLOUDINESS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE CENTRAL

FOR THE LOW TO ACQUIRE SUBTROPICAL OR TROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS
DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS WHILE IT MOVES SLOWLY NORTH-
NORTHWESTWARD TO NORTHWARD. AFTER THAT TIME...CONDITIONS ARE
FORECAST TO BECOME LESS CONDUCIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT AS THE LOW MOVES
NORTH-NORTHEASTWARD TOWARD THE NORTH ATLANTIC. THIS SYSTEM HAS A
HIGH CHANCE...60 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A SUBTROPICAL OR TROPICAL
CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS....AND A HIGH CHANCE...
70 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A SUBTROPICAL OR TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING

Now 2013 is sprinkled onto this. Conditions will not be conducive for much longer.....

AFTER THAT TIME...CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST TO BECOME LESS CONDUCIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT AS THE LOW MOVES NORTH-NORTHEASTWARD TOWARD THE NORTH ATLANTIC.


After all, it's 2013, plus November, right? Only 48 hours to develop and intensify. :(
