Re: TS Lee Lounge

NHC has restarted advisories on Lee, conservatively estimating the winds at 30 knots. Operationally, Invest 98L (now Lee, again) was designated at 2017 09 22 1800z while around 30.5N 49.30W.

Tropical Cyclone Lee is forecast to remain in a low-shear environment for several days over marginally warm SSTs, but with anomalously cold upper level temps. This should help the cyclone intensify, possibly rapidly given its small size. However, any increased shear may also quickly weaken it, for the same reason.

Lee may become another yet another 2017 hurricane before the end of the week, but this one remains well out at sea.
