Subtropical system near Azores

#1 Postby TheEuropean » Sat Oct 06, 2007 8:16 am

Look at this system near the azores:

It was an extratropical system with fronts a few days ago, but now convection is warpping around the center. It should be a shortlived system with a cold front nearing from the west, but it is impressive.
