Re: Will 98L be classified?

that last anonymous was me; the login page wouldnt come up

I am very close to giving up on this hurricane season and finding something else to occupy my time. do we need a cat 5 hurricane before the nhc decides to classify something??
we have a tropical or subtropical depression in the Atlantic, what are they waiting for?
there is convecion, an LLC, outflow to the east, and a somewhat tropical appearance

just like 2000:
td4 was a TS according to recon, but not classified as one
45mph tropical storm TS on Aug 12 (same area as this one), never classified
subtropical storm at the end of August; well-defined LLC and 40mph winds at NC landfall, not classified
subtropical storm at the beginning of October, looked much stronger than the later one; not classified

When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center.
