Okayyyy....A new storm? I've been unable to view S2K for 2 days.Boy am I lost. All I had was the NHC. S2K is my favorite weather site so I didnt bother w/ Weather underground. So was Vince 96L and then suddenly upgraded to a tropical storm? I've miss so much. Cant keep up w/this crazy season.

Taking a look at the UKMO (the better model for European storms)... looks like a slow drift and filling trend toward the northeast. The Azores shouldn't see anything out of Vince. The Canaries should see some thunderstorms and gusty winds from him.

By 10-Oct/12Z, Vince should begin to fill as a cold front that extends from near Iceland through the North-Central Atlantic nears the cyclone.

By 11-Oct/00Z, Vince should appear as a "pre-frontal trough" as it approaches the Portugese Coast.

By 12-Oct/00Z, the bulk of the "Vince" energy should be passed to a parent low along the frontal train. This parent low will enter the Bay of Biscay with the northern extent of the frontal train giving the UK some precip. The remnants of Vince should then cross either southern France or northern Spain and see a bit of weakening from interaction with the Pyrenees Mountains.

By 14-Oct/00Z, the northern end of the front will exit the UK, bringing coastal Norway some wind and rain. The remnants of Vince will begin to regenerate in the Gulf of Genoa and could become a significant rain producer (not as a tropical cyclone, of course) for Italy and the Balkans. Meanwhile, another powerful occluded front will be marching in from the Atlantic to give Western Europe another round of rain and wind.

Is it my imagination or does Vince seem quite small? (Like he can fit inside of Katrina or Rita's eyewall) Are there any projections for him to strengthen any, since he is over cooler water?

Edit: He already looks like a cane...is he one?

Let's here it for Vince. Despite where he is, he still got it together. 8-)

Vince is not a hurricane, nor will it. It's structure is somewhat like a subtropical cyclone. STCs tend to develop eyes easier than pure-TCs.

Now... before ya'll start letting your freak-flags fly... I know it is listed as a TS, not a STS. However, look at the discussion:

UPPER LEVEL ANTICYCLONIC FLOW IS NOT APPARENT ON SATELLITE ANIMATIONS...
BUT A 07Z AMSU OVERPASS REVEALS A WEAK UPPER LEVEL WARM CORE. CYCLONE
PHASE SPACE ANALYSES FROM FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY INDICATE THIS SYSTEM
IS SYMMETRIC AND NOT VERY FAR ON THE COLD CORE SIDE OF THE SPECTRUM.


It's about midway between TC and STC status.

A PRELIMINARY EXAMINATION
SUGGESTS THIS IS THE FARTHEST EAST AND NORTH A TROPICAL CYCLONE
HAS EVER FORMED IN THE BASIN.


The above from the 2 PM Discussion.

Wow another record for the 2005 season as this is the farthest east and more north cyclone that has ever formed in the atlantic basin.

lol, I highly doubt there are any even with the amount of money the EU takes from us. :lol:

Does look like we are going to get some rain out of this though as has been said.

I went down the hall and spoke with Schultz a bit ago... 2.5-3.0, but nothing more than that. Chance of this becoming a hurricane are fairly low.
