Re: Tropical Depression Eighteen Forms East of the Bahamas

I'm estimating it from the VIS SAT - the NHC alos mentioned it in their 11 AM disc.

THE SOUTHERLY SHEAR COULD BE FORCING SOME
REDEVELOPMENT OF THE CENTER FARTHER NORTH DURING THE NEXT DAY OR
SO...AND IN FACT IT COULD ALREADY BE SLIGHTLY NORTH OF THE ADVISORY
POSITION.

Look at the floater scottsvb, there are clouds moving CC above the "L" marker. Now whether its 30, 40, or 50 miles, have to wait for recon.
