Yes sometimes they fool us. :)

And if it was in the GOM it would be a threat to somewhere much sooner. Where it is now it is at least 3 days out and delaying upgrade till they are certain of what they have won't hurt anything and IMO makes sense. As good as it looks right now, looks can be decieving.

At this rate... :eek:

I think I already see future TD 6 behind TD 5 and another disturbance behind that. It's way too early for an African wave train.

Interesting the models were initialized at 30 knots...so still probably a TD. New fixes from TAFB aren't availalbe but AFWA was fixing the center a bit to the N (10.6 44.8 at 1530Z) as well and pegged it a 2.5...so the NHC must either believe that's not the center, or TAFB still has it down at a 2.0 further south, or both.

Yes Mike that is why I did not go ahead and proclaim with breaking news it as Emily. :) But let's see what they do at 5.

I hate waiting on these far-out TD's to become storms...

looking at the ridges and troughs... tendencies an extrapolating forward
in time... it's my best guess... we will have to wait and see.

I believe 1997 was the earliest that the 5th storm formed, that being Danny (subtrops were not named then but did count in the season total) sometime around July 15 or 16

Danny formed early on the 16th... so your right.

It sat in Mobile Bay late on the 18th through late on the 19th.

Here is that Subtropical storm..June 1 to 2.


Also this year all the systems but maybe Arlene are tropical. Instead of the of mostly subtropical system(Starting out from cold lows/fronts. Like 1997.

An active CDO burst like that usually indicates TS - especially in a compact swirl like that...

Looking at visible/the buoy at 50 something west shows that the cirulation has gotten stronger. Its still the overall circ is broad. But looking at satellite shows that the flow is moving into the top in on the northwest side. While inflow is coming back around the southeast side. I think for one there is a well defined LLC developing under the deep convection. With overall outflow becoming better oreganized.

it's strange, when a major hurricane is nearing land with 2-hour updates, like Dennis, I feel stressed to get the updates as soon as possible, but when there's a tropical depression nowhere near land with 6-hour updates, like TD 5, I feel very very bored and anxious to hear the next update...

Man, how the memory fails! :)

You jogged my memory for Danny - the rainfest for Mobile as he
sat there, and sat there, and sat there.

TD 5 still looks a bit vertically un-aligned to me - anyone else?
