Re: Alex to be or not to be

Well SSD have upped the TNumbers for TD One from 1.5/2.0 at 0545 UTC to 2.0/2.0 at 1145 UTC. However, the visible satellite loops show that the centre remains exposed from the deep convection to the south. Not sure quite what the motion may be doing, as the visible loops arent that clear. Also, it looks like maybe the centre really is trying to pull in the convection to its south, but just cant fight the upper-level flow. Be interesting to see what the Recon flight finds.
