Iona is out – now a C4 hurricane.

I recall that TCRs for CPAC storms, as well as the CPAC portions of crossover storms, were usually left to CPHC staff.

This sometimes resulted in delays up to 3 years: Madeline 2016's report was updated only in March 2019 to include the CPHC's sections, while Ema 2019's report was only released in January 2022 and authored by Birchard from CPHC. Dora 2023's report still has a footnote saying that it will be updated once CPHC and JTWC complete their analyses, which haven't been done two years after the storm.

But Iona's and Keli's reports were both written by NHC forecasters with no such footnotes. So is the NHC taking over CPHC's responsibilities for TCRs now? Or was it a change associated with the new practice of "abbreviated reports" that started this year?

Abbreviated reports have been around since 2023. Side note: we're at 4/13 reports for the Atlantic, 10/18 for the EPAC, and both of the storms that formed in the CPAC have reports now. 16/33, that's a good amount for it not even being the end of the year yet.
