Again, I've experienced a hurricane(though a weak one), so I don't know how a tropical depression can be any worse. But if you think it can be worse, please explain.

Just my opinion based upon satellite imagery...I've seen storms much worse looking than this get classified as depressions.

This is not a depression. Recon observations do not support any LLC. What you're seeing on satellite is not a surface circulation.
