Colin 2022 was clearly classifiable though, despite being weak.

I would like to draw attention to a tropical cyclone that formed in the Mediterranean Sea in late September, 1982. The system had a well-defined eye, was non-frontal, and had consistent convection for over four days.

This cyclone, as well as tens of others in the Mediterranean Sea, were and are not monitored by any RSMC. This is important as public awareness as to the impact and dangers of these hurricanes, as well as forecasting and resources, can be severely diminished. The reason I have chosen to post this tropical cyclone is because I was unable to find any pre-existing photographs of this system. It is my firm belief that official monitoring and designation of this basin as an area of tropical cyclone formation is crucial, as it has sometimes seen more tropical activity than the CPHC's area of responsibility and the potential for extreme human impacts is much higher in this basin owing to the large population density and diminished public awareness.

Some of the systems were not classified because it was connected to frontal systems.

Winter 2020-2021 :cold:

All observations are in Tecumseh, OK unless otherwise noted.

Winter posts are focused mainly for Oklahoma & Texas.

Take any of my forecasts with a grain of salt, refer to the NWS, SPC, and NHC for official information

Never say Never with weather! Because ANYTHING is possible!
