Not much time left to develop, about 24hrs (or less). By tomorrow night it will be merging with the cold front. I don't think the NHC will bother with initiating advisories on a semi-tropical low that won't last more than 12 hrs and won't impact land.

Yes, sadly too many are not interested in the dynamics of tropical cyclones, which is what brings most of us mets here. This system is especially fascinating due to its hybrid nature, but not interesting if you're only looking for a big show or you don't have a natural interest in tropical cyclones. :(

Most importantly, this hybrid TC is forecast by most models, including the Euro and GFS, to move NNW and merge into the strong cold front and 500 mb trough approaching the east coast tomorrow. This will inject a lot of moisture and energy into a single powerful low that will bomb out over southern New England and provide a serious wind event from NYC/Long Island into all of New England this weekend. That alone is a great reason to watch the evolution of this tropical or subtropical low as it develops tonight and tomorrow. Here's the 18Z GFS forecast. Most other models are producing similar output. Look at the resulting pressure gradient!

For me, it's largely a matter of not feeling I have anything to add to the discussion with weaker invests like this--it looks like it won't really develop into much, at least as a named system.

Yeah not much coverage on here since it is not forecast to come ashore the east coast and will pull north of the Carib islands. It is however a very cool storm to watch evolve and I'm on watch to see if this gets a name and continues this season's busy streak burning one more name as we potentially come close to tying 2012 and 2010 with numbers. Speaking of 2012, if this thing were more west, it could be like a Sandy 2. Lets hope no more rains strike the southeast, Matt was overwhelming!

From what I can tell from recent IR satellite images, this may be causing flooding in the same general area of Haiti that was first hit by Matthew:

Excerpt from 2 AM TWO:

Moisture from this system is still causing locally
heavy rains along with life-threatening flash floods and mud slides
over portions of Hispaniola.

New England is in a severe drought and needs the rain, the mid-Atlantic a bit less so, although areas around State College got an incredible 7 inches last night

I'm tracking 99L (this negative tilt trough---I'm glad it didn't happen with Matthew!) but there just isn't much to interest people that aren't mets or the rest of us hardcore trackers.

For some of you on the forum taking an assumption that there is no interest with what is occuring with Invest 99L, well I would not take a stance that there is no interest. I monitor weather all over daily because like others I am sure, there are other things that occupy our daily routine to keep me at least from being on here more frequently.

I love weather. I do it for a living and never is boring. NEVER! This year's tropical season has been a bit more taxing here in Jacksonville having been impacted by four tropical cyclones, including brushes of two hurricanes, one being a major named Matthew. Lost some trees and lots of clean-up these past few months. It helped made it a long summer, but it sure made tracking weather around here the most intriguing experience in many years for sure.

NEVER, EVER SAY NEVER in the tropics and weather in general, and most importantly, with life itself!!

A technical Low. High and dry over here with blue sky and lower humidity signaling the end of rainy season.

It's close, but very quickly running out of time. The front can be seen coming in from the northwest.

Yeah it's pretty much run out of time. Still a really unusual structure and best of all the GFS and Euro both seem to have forecast it pretty well. They had a large north to south oriented oval (which we have now) that gradually merges into the 500 mb trough and cold front over New England (which will happen overnight) and then produces a really deep 980 mb low over northern New England. This was one very odd shaped hula-hoop tropical/subtropical low and it's final disposition will be just as strange if it turns out to help produce such a powerful low over northern New England. Certainly not a scenario I've ever seen before.

Looks like it opened up to the west as the convection organized--too little too late this time as it's being overtaken by the frontal flow at this point.

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

1. A non-tropical area of low pressure over the western Atlantic has
degenerated into a trough and tropical or subtropical cyclone
formation is no longer anticipated. This system is still producing
an area of gale force winds to its southeast, and for additional
information, see High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather
Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent
* Formation chance through 5 days...low...near 0 percent

I wasn't talking about you anyway. You always have good insight. I was talking about people who come on here purely to say that the storm is a loss, a waste of time, it's dead, why bother, etc. while it is still going and some of us are still analyzing it. That's not contributing. They need to go somewhere else.
