Thanks for the post Daniel. But I'm still a little unclear on this. The relevant part of the post you directed me to just says, if I'm reading it right, that the TUTT is predicted to move westward. I understand that, and that the NHC predicts that the disturbance, or at least a part of it, will move westward. But my question about NRL classifications still is there.

By now I realize the answer to the question pretty much has to be that yes, NRL will classify an invest as an EPAC one even though it's in the Atlantic basin, as long it's predicted to move westward; NRL likely would've corrected any error on the site by now. But I just never have seen that; has that happened before that anyone knows of?
