Re: Delta... why not?

I wouldnt say that was a trait just from last year! Look how long it took them to classify Vince earlier this year.

With NRL still listing the system as 95L, and nothing on the NHC site, it looks like we wont see Delta just yet. The next likely time for a classification would be at 0300z. But seeing as they havent classified it now, it wouldnt be a surprise if they wait til visible imagery is available tomorrow and then go from there. However, visible imagery from earlier showed a well developed system, and the latest IR imagery continues to do so. Still, i guess they must have their reasons for classifying or not!
