Re: TD#2 and look to the GOM

Javelin, you are certainly correct with reference to Camille.
"Camille was detected by satellite on August 14, 1969, as a tropical disturbance moving west in the Caribbean Sea. Early on the 15th, Camille became a strengthening hurricane while located off the western tip of Cuba.'"
Storm CAMILLE is number 3 of the year 1969
August 14 18 UTC 19.4N 82.0W -- deg -- mph -- kph 60 mph 95 kph 991 mb Tropical Storm
I haven't been able to find the data the Gulfstream found. I have noticed over the last 4 hrs that the western edge of TD2 is round, not jagged and ragged as before. The WV shot I listed above shows an almost complete circle. The exception being S America.
Who was is that said CAT V earlier today?
