Re: Andrea Remnants will it Reform as a Tropical Cyclone?

I dunno, Allan. Looking at the last few hours of the satellite loops, while I think Andrea was arguably sufficiently organized 12 hours ago to be considered a tropical storm, I think the dry air and shear are really taking it apart right now. I'm back on the fence I guess. I can definately see rotation on the Melbourne radar, but it appears to be winding down. Deeper convection that had built up around the LLC has bee sheared off, although an even bigger cluster is present well to the east, giving the system a bit of a frontal appearance to me.
