In my humble opinion as a weather enthusiast over the last 6 years, I believe we could already be watching TD 9 over the E.A.*. But, the NHC needs visible images before making a decision to upgrade the system. Thereafter, is very possible we could have officially TD 9 by 5 am if this current organization trend continues.

I guess it's too early to say if this is going to be a fish storm. They say it's moving west-northwest and from my experience, storms which start moving that direction when they are this far out usually end up as fish, unless it has a super strong ridge to the north, which isn't the case right now.

This system looks like a Western Pacific system. Its already starting to develop banding. Its a strong tropical depression by satellite. In maybe a tropical storm soon.

Its banding has become very well defined. In with a well defined LLC with 35 to 40 knot winds over the southeastern quad. Convection is fading a little over the eastern quad. But developing over the LLC/Northern Quad.
I don't think the nhc wents to upgrade this...I will say 3 days from now once into recon range. They need recon to upgrade anymore. I give up.

I made a joke about this yesterday but it looks like it could be for real to wait to send a plane in there but who knows.
