Re: Watching Activity Near Bermuda

Doug,
loks like u were right for now. 96L remains a tropical disturbance at the 530pm TWO. However, if the thunderstorms can concentrate a little more then it could become a depression at anytime. I am a little surprised it wasnt classified yet, and of course there is always TD4 from 2000 to use as a comparison, especially as this disturbance looks to be closing in on Bermuda.

Also interesting to note they are still carrying the wave that was 95L in the outlook, even though there is no real convective activity to speak of in association with this wave. The TWD discussion does state that this wave has a large envelope, and i gues they are carrying it because it has potential to develop as it nears the Lesser Antilles, as hinted by a few models.
