:uarrow: This season we have not seen any subtropical development in the Atlantic Ocean itself (Edouard was in the GOM). I have been thinking on doing a thread talking about it but didn't think it would attract much public!

This system is interesting but I don't expect any real development. I have been surprised before and it's September! Lets see what happens.

This don't have much chance. I'm not going to fly the freak flag after a "invest" last year that looked better having not being upgraded. I'm sorry, but it won't happen. If it does then I will say I'm wrong.

It does look pretty good, it has to loose that frontal thing, but other wise looks good.

Matt, I agree. It looks pretty darn good but not tropical enough to be subtropical. It has about 24 hours. Lets see.

I think its borderline...If it can develop convection over the center, then it could become one. I believe the nhc needs to put it under a yellow or maybe a orange.

Very borderline sst's for subtropical development. I believe if it can develop that burst of convection near its center, it will be a subtropical system. But I don't think this has a chance of becoming more.
