It could be #9, I think it may be one to watch along the East coast as well cause ya never know its been a strange year. Remember the I storm from 2004

Quote from Wunderground Blog
New threat approaching Lesser Antilles Islands
A new area of concern has developed this morning near 17N 58W, about 500 miles east of the northernmost Lesser Antilles Islands, in association with a tropical wave moving west-northwest at 15 mph. The wave has developed a sharp increase in its heavy thunderstorm activity, and there are signs of a surface circulation in visible satellite imagery. Winds at a buoy at 16N, 58W, just to the south of the disturbance, have gone from northeast to north-northwest in the past few hours, signifying that this disturbance might have a closed circulation. Unfortunately, this morning's QuikSCAT pass missed the disturbance, and we'll have to wait until about 8pm EDT for a new pass. The disturbance will bring showers and gusty winds to the northern Lesser Antilles Islands Friday morning. The disturbance is under about 10 knots of wind shear, and the shear is expected to remain at 10 knots or below the next few days. This may allow some development, and we will need to keep a close eye on this wave. I imagine it will end up recurving between Bermuda and the U.S. East Coast, but it is too early to be confident of this.

QuikSCAT shows 40kt un-flagged winds in the NE quadrant of TD 9. I think the NHC may upgrade it on the next advisory. Watch for the 12Z models to initialize at 35 kts with the header Tropical Storm Nine.

I don't think TD 9/Isaac has much time left as a tropical storm, as it has a very shallow structure currently with much more marginal convection activity than earlier yesterday. In addition, a frontal-like mid-level feature extending southwest from TD 9/Isaac is becoming more apparent on visible imagery, along with the other synoptic features I aforementioned; thus, I don't believe it may be much longer before extratropical transition of TD 9/likely Isaac (per next advisory). Not as much chance to maintain even subtropical storm status before extratropical transition may begin potentially by roughly 36 to 48 hours. Increasing mid-level shear ahead of the mid-level trough and moderate surface front associated with an ULL to the northwest of TD 9/Isaac will likely aid in this extratropical transition, along with the fact that TD 9/Isaac is looking less and less organized and less of a warm-core system.
Looks like a briefly-lived Isaac to me.

I agree it does look more subtropical now. I think that was mentioned in one of the TPC discussions that it could make that transition.

As I suspected, latest advisory out indicates we have Tropical Storm Isaac. The synoptics still support that the system still may have sustained tropical storm-force winds and a weak to moderate warmish core.
From the latest (11AM EST) discussion, it confirms my thoughts on subtropical characteristics and not much more intensification beyond 10KT to 15KT or 16KT...
ALTHOUGH THE CURRENT SATELLITE APPEARANCE IS A LITTLE SKELETAL... A
QUIKSCAT PASS NEAR 0845 UTC PROVIDES STRONG EVIDENCE OF AT LEAST 35
KT WINDS IN THE SYSTEM. THUS THE NINTH TROPICAL STORM OF THE
YEAR... ISAAC... IS BORN. THE STORM IS ALSO EXHIBITING SOME
SUBTROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH A RADIUS OF MAXIMUM WINDS LARGER
THAN AVERAGE NEAR 75 NM... AND ALSO AN UPPER LOW IS NEARLY ON TOP
OF THE CYCLONE. FURTHER INTENSIFICATION IS POSSIBLE FOR THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS AS VERTICAL WIND SHEAR REMAINS RELATIVELY LIGHT WITH
UPPER RIDGING NEAR THE STORM. ALTHOUGH SSTS ARE HOVERING NEAR 26C
IN THE PATH OF ISAAC... COLDER-THAN-AVERAGE UPPER-LEVEL
TEMPERATURES ARE ALSO FORECAST... WHICH WOULD ALLOW FOR MORE
INSTABILITY AND MORE CONVECTION. THE INTENSITY FORECAST IS A LITTLE
HIGHER THAN SHIPS AND NOT TOO DISSIMILAR FROM THE FSU
SUPERENSEMBLE.

Nevertheless, there wasn't an "I" storm in 1991 - 1994, & 1997, five years right there.
