Re: 2010 Season Arriving Soon, Special Tropical Weather Outlook Issued

Having trouble figuring out why the left over Agatha is not classified as a TD in the western Carb. Very strong blow up of convection this morning and if it holds... could be a rapid intensification setup for this area... SST's in area are plenty warm for the system to turn into a tropical system. Should be an interesting day... see if storms can hold and a center get organized... movement would be slow and nne?

would expect the surface winds to start moving around to the NE later today.
