Agree with you totally on 95L, HF. Given the language coming from the NHC's products - namely the latest TWO and TWD - it would seem as if they are ready to classify this as Delta. However, given as there is no immediate land mass under threat, classification will likely wait until the normal 2100z package. Satellite imagery on this one has been showing a continually improving and organizing system. It appears to be detatching from the larger frontal cloud and structure, and taking on its own identity. With estimates putting winds in excess of 35 knts, it is likely that when (if) classified it will go straight to Storm strength, and miss out on depression status. Still, with the 2100z packages likely to come out within the next hour or so, we will see if it gets called now.
