Indeed its starting to look more and more organised now, still got some good convectionn around the center and it does look pretty decent right now. We shall see what happens but I think its slowly on its way to becoming a tropical depression. SHIPS still taking this upto minimal hurricane force as well so they clearly think this will be a pretty big player.

Oh thats starting to look a lot like a tropical depression now I have to admit look at that deep convection over the system, an upgrade is probably not all that far away I'd imagine looking at that.

[Derek Ortt]

we mentioned it this evening and were quite aggressive in calling for formation

[cycloneye]

[KWT]

It maybe slightly lacking in deep convection in places but I think it must be very close to being a tropical depression now looking at its current organisation.

[HURAKAN]

[KWT]

Looking increasingly good now can see the deep convection has increased quite a lot now expanding to the NW, I think tropical depression status must be quite close now surely?

Just waiting for the first few visible images to come through now whenever that will be.

Now upto 25kts as well now so its getting there now, just really waitin for the NHC to pull the trigger with regards to this invest really, also SHIPS still get upto hurricane status by 72hrs.

Ah its a little short according to that cycloneye thats probably why they are holding back on upgrading this system right now then, its getting there though.
