yes. remember Katrina and the huge area of convection that formed behind her?


Exactly. All too often we see large flare ups well South of a hurricane that do not develop.

I'm remaining open minded about this issue. It could very well become the next system, we don't know the future so why say it just wont happen?

True... boca_chris does have a point. However, so far it seems to be persisting pretty well. See below...

Scostorms ... I'm with you. I'm rather put off by so many posts that speak in absolute terms. I think some people are discouraged from posting because they get pounced on immediately after offering an observation/opinion. I think we would all do well to work harder at keeping an open mind.

Boca chris as per NHC this flare up is not associated with Ophelia.

1) I still believe there is a chance this flare-up is associated with Ophelia
2) whatever it is I am saying convection will be gone within 24 hours and this thread will be long forgotten.
3) I DO have crow ready if necessary however I am pretty confident in #1 and #2

oh and remember this everyone???
we had a huge thread going on this! the convection behind Katrina.

Haven't tails of hurricanes spawned other tropical systems before? I believe they have....I remember several such instances, but not specifically, or else I'd trot them out.
