Not a meteorologist, in fact more of an idiot than anything. You should probably check with the NHC or a local NWS office for official information.

It saves them the embarrassment of an unnamed storm. I'd expect the actual start time to be moved back at least 24 hours and it would have been Wilfred if named at its actual time.

Oh yeah, they are aware of us because I personally know and went to met school with one of their forecasters down there at NHC.

Between Ianos and now, this. Just wow. Post-season track will probably extend the genesis back by at least 12 hours. Microwave imagery indicated some semblance of an eyewall last night (seriously) which is also just ridiculous to think about. Will probably keep it subtropical given the surrounding airmass (of the neutercane variety), but, one could make the structural/convective argument for a tropical system.

It’s likely they’ll put its development earlier and its peak intensity high in post-season analysis.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

I'm guessing the actual peak intensity was 55 kt and that was about 24 hours ago.
