Re: id give it chances based on ships model

98L is now Noname.

In all fairness to the guys at NHC, they could have pulled the trigger earlier this afternoon, but waiting around to see if it would be more tropical vs subtropical makes sense. I expect it will be referred to as tropical, given the deep central convection now present.

In many ways 98L/3 is very similar to Invest 91L from back on May 18, which peaked out at an estimated 40 knots by NRLs assessment. Perhaps a candidate for post-season reanalysis there, although its life was cut short, whereas 98L has persisted and grown steadily stronger (to about where 91L peaked just before giving it up to the parent trof and other unfavorable conditions.)
