A man living on the sun is more likely then this becoming subtropical. Hell, if anything its LESS organized.

Just my two cents.

A surface reflection of the upper low? Also you can see that the strongest winds are well away from that circulation,meaning its cold core.

GFS slowly moves this system SE and weakens it over the next week. At this point I think this will not become warm core system.

Very cool satellite pic...."looks" like a band of cirrus clouds pinwheeling out of the disturbance almost reaching the Outer Banks and Bahamas....great shot of nature's beauty...and "looks" can be deceiving, so best taken at face value only

I wouldn't be surprised if an invest comes out of this, but a sub-tropical storm? It has a long road ahead of it to achieve that.

it needs to wrap that convection more, and get more of it...otherwise that surface low may just go "poof"...

That is certainly an interesting loop, watching how the low has changed over the last 48 hours

I found this to be pretty neat looking. You can see the cyclone develop over the past few days.

Considering it's location right now, it looks good for May currently! Looks like it is trying to pull the convection in on itself and shake off the front associated with it.
