Certainly looks like a TD but NHC likes to wait for persistance.

This is one to keep a eye on. The future and intensity of this storm depends on a very slight/minute change in direction around PR and DR. If it goes south of it (which is only a touch of difference between the models so far), it will be in a much more favorable area for intensification. If it goes north of it, it could dissipate due to insufficient waters temps and shear.

I'm more interested in seeing if another east coast trough will set up in the next weekend time frame. For the most part there has been one every 7-10 days this summer. In fact another one, pretty strong as well, is expected this upcoming weekend. We could even have another front make it down through to the gulf as well. Next weekend should be about the timeframe if 98 is going to go north or west.

In the far eastern Atlantic, the NHC is more likely to be conservative. It might wait another run or for a visible.

I could see the next update being interpreted as "Almost a TD, we promise, just a bit more to go"

I think they will upgrade at 5 a.m. tomorrow morning if the currend trends continue. Definitely a closed circulation and convection building around the center.

It looks really really weak in comparison to yesterday

Maybe it is just my inexperienced eyes.. I just see a whole lot of ocean gaps and not a ton of convection/storms.

The center is under that recent convection and it seems to be consolidating.

I think they'll go now for the 11PM since it's clearly a TD. They don't need to post watches or warnings and we all seem to agree on what it will do in general, i.e. go westward towards the northern islands, increase to a minimal TS soon and then get to a moderate TS or a little stronger as it approaches the islands. Not a tough introductory package.

I am surprised by the persistent activity this early in the season. Makes me slightly anxious for august and can't even imagine what September might bring.

it clearly is.. even evidence of the beginnings of a curved band developing.

No need to jump on it yet. There are no watches or warnings necessary and won't be for days.

:uarrow: Agree with that. They can wait 6 more hours and no harm will be done.

:uarrow: Except for the fact that if it meets the criteria of a tropical cyclone, it should be classified as such at that time.

Looks pretty good in organization, guess they wanna see what it's maxima looks like. I don't really see the cool SSTs in the obs that are being predicted and factored in. Unless I am looking in the wrong places. I do see however that shear does seem to be very hostile in the W. Atlc, and a persistent pattern seems to be in effect according to 10 day loops.

future may not be as dim as we were thinking unless there is another SAL surge. Models have less shear than they did 24 hours ago

Best track can handle that.

Indeed SAL has really thinned out. In general though 98L we be heading into a more stable airmass along with cooler sst's which should be enough to keep in check or we might see another pretty naked swirl.

Very close if not a TD already.
