Maybe the streak continues after post-season reanalysis?

Unlikely. There would have to be direct evidence of TS winds, and there was none. The depression was in a relatively low pressure environment, too, meaning that winds around the center were possibly even lower than estimated. So with no surface obs or QuikSCAT winds, this one can't be upgraded.

Bye-Bye TD 1.

[cycloneye]

[HURAKAN]

The life of TD 1.

[cpdaman]

i think he posted that wednesday.....

btw 2.30 more inches of rain today in da "mouth of the rat"

[Ed Mahmoud]

Terrible salesmanship by the Spanish to name Boca Raton the way they did.


Boca Chica, would have been so much better. And if it is like the English, where the river Wey enters the Atlantic being "Weymouth", than having a Rio Raton reflects an equally poor sense of real estate judgement.


OK, I know Puerto Rico and Costa Rica were already taken, but Disney's great-great grandfather wasn't even alive when they could have slapped on the name "Buena Vista".


Of course, I do admire the whole "Florida" naming thing.

On an unrelated and equally off-topic note, if Vermont is supposedly the Green Mountain State, than it should be Verdmont or Verdemont.

Vermont means "worm mountain" in French.

Back on topic
Nice low level cloud swirl.

Well, Ed you're obvious into linquistics some. I get what your saying, also being sometimes accused of running on during a lightbulb moment . Then again, it's always possible you mixed up your forums altogether, but I doubt that.

[cpdaman]

ED i appreciate that you recognized my location

and yes Boca chica would have been so much better......looks like we got a "streaker" of a low moving across the atlantic tonite

not even an interest to shipping lanes because the fetch was so small and the winds pretty ordindary

goodbye tropical depression one........we barely even knew you

Isn't Boca Chica on Yamato east of I-95?

Does this early storm indicate anything about the rest of the season?
