If you can help me spot the remains of Ivan so I could better understand your wish-casting, please do so!

All I see is a cold front draped from Canada to The Bahamas.



Ooops. I guess the NHC is now -removed-. Since all you see is a cold front...maybe you ought to take some classes in analysis :-)

From the 11:30 TWOAT
A WEAK LOW PRESSURE AREA...A PARTIAL REMNANT OF FORMER TROPICAL DEPRESSION IVAN...IS LOCATED ABOUT 70 MILES EAST-NORTHEAST OF WEST PALM BEACH FLORIDA.

Ivan moved off to the NE and become a baroclinic extratropical low pressure system ... however, in the process, a small vort lobe at 500mb level broke off and was left behind ... technically, it's not Ivan, but it is a by-product of Ivan ... so the NHC's of a partial remnant is a very good term to describe what little bit is there ...

What's this fascination with Ivan? If anything develops from this it's NOT Ivan it's a new system. Ivan has come and gone it this develops it's Matthew. Ivan is dead period end of sentence. I don't care what it developed from it isn't Ivan it can't be Ivan. At the moment it's a cold core system and not even surface level that I can see. If it develops barotropic from baroclinic it's a new system.

I think you posted this after several NWS offices in Florida, and experts here, said there was LLC. I'm not saying it's the ghost of ivan or we have to be fixated on this new blob because it's the remnants of ivan, but it is there, it's storming on people who still have holes in their roofs, and the NWS discussions I've read refer to it as remnants or offshoots of Ivan. Now I guess it's Invest86L.

It's not a fixation on Ivan. It is an interest with tropical weather at our doorstep. You sound sorta angry and critical of our friendly discusssion. Sorry if I'm misunderstanding.

A "partial remnant" is a remnant nonetheless.


Dave and others not sure how to quote fellow members...

[.quote="Downdraft"]At the moment it's a cold core system and not even surface level that I can see.[/quote] (without the . before quote) to make a quote

and you will see:

Is it similar to Nicholas last year? It became extratropical, but a remnant low reformed and almost became a storm. It became a new invest, and it would have been named Odette if it formed. Is that similar to the current situation. It's pretty complex....

I might call it ex-Ivan, Part Of The System Formerly Known As Ivan, What Was Ivan, What Might Be Matthew, The Blob, or Blair Warner. Does it matter?

All I know is that I'm interested how it came to be and what it's doing and where it's going.

Even if it's not tropical or threatening or in need of a warning graphic or even a name, it might just be my weather by gosh and I'm gonna talk about it.

So, pffffffft! :P :wink:
