A reminder to all - for the second time in this thread now:

If you have an concern with how our threads are categorized please PM a moderator. Voicing it on the open board just takes-up space especially when 5-more people chime-in in response. The mods have to come back later and delete a dozen posts of the same thing, when a simple PM would address the concern - at least by providing an explanation.

Thanks.

To add about what fellow moderator jasons said,in general terms our policy is that we always leave threads here after the last advisory or Tropical Weather Outlook has been written for a couple of days to allow members who may want to still make comments about any system in particular to do so,unless there are more replies or advisorys or TWO,s resume.If I recall,the last TWO for the ex Fred system was made at 2 AM EDT on the 17th of September. After 2 days,if we dont see anymore replies or there are any new resumption of Advisories or TWO,s,then the thread is moved to the archieves forum.

We do listen to them, but we have a right to look at the situation and form our own opinion.This is a forum not a classroom, and sometimes the none pro-mets actually get it right.

I know it's naked, and I know it's small, but that is a closed circ and there wasn't one yesterday. Fat lady has been waiting stage left for about 4 days, hasn't sung yet.

The little swirl that could. I expect maybe another dose of pulsing convection tonight, only for it to die by morning. :D

Actually its really easy to notice when a convective burst is about to happen, which may happen soon.
if you watch the low level cloud deck with any system you will see it first thicken. meaning the spiral bands will will no longer be separated with no clouds in between. if you look at the loops the low level clouds have thickened a lot today so expect a burst of convection sometime soon.

It's kind of almost comical it is so small. Sometimes small circs spin up quickly, of course, they can also die just as quickly if the conditions are not just right. I should probably expect this to just dissipate shortly, but you figure SOMETHING has to pop at some point.

I tracked that little eddy back to beneath a small burst of convection near 24N/59W last night. The convection died, and the eddy is zipping rapidly westward now. I'm measuring 170nm in 9 hours, or about 19 kts. Pressures just north of it are in the 1017-1018mb range. To the south, I see a few 1014-1015mb readings. Could be a pressure of 1012mb or so in the center of the eddy.

Without deep convection and significant convergence to generate convection and with lots of dry air in its path, it should gradually open up and die out over the next day or two. Development chances slim.

the circ is quite a bit larger than what we see. its just that the clouds lines are not so visible due to dry sinking air . but moisture will increase along is track so at the least some more definition with the circ could occur and well as i stated before a convective burst should soon happen.
this loop shows the larger circ extending east and west quite a bit.. and notice the cloud base thicken..

also convergence is on the increase a decent amount over the last few hours which again points towards a convective burst soon.

hehe ..

Yes, my lawn needs a breezy thundershower in Palm Bay. j/k. Where there's a spin there's always potential. Looks like Pebbles though compared to Fred. THe ridge will be building down the eastern seaboard this weekend so we'll see if conditions improve or get worse.

How many times will it be said "this should open up and die out" before Fred does not exist anymore in this Universe? There is no doubt there is a nice little low level spin there, we can all see it. Maybe it will come all the way over and reach land in a few days or maybe it really will finally open up and die. So far, it has not done that despite almost a week of people saying it would. It is what it is.

There was no rotation yesterday. This is a new rotation that developed overnight.
