ATL : TROPICAL STORM GRACE

[leanne_uk]

on a nice note about our lovely little Grace my friend delivered a baby girl at 2.09am gmt today and could not decide on a name. She has text me to tell me the baby is Grace
The fact I have not stopped talking about this system for days and told her yesterday that the storm had been named gave her the name Grace. Her husband agreed and loved the name

At 06 UTC, three hours after the last advisory, Grace was still a tropical storm

I guess they reconsidered it, but figured it would be too confusing to restart advisories? It looks better - and more tropical - than it did when advisories ended.

Yea, those last few satellite shots still look tropical. Although, last night at advisory time, it did not.

I'm surprised to log on and see Grace still moving right along!
