Re: Bye, bye, Delta!

The NHC maps don't take into account tropical vs. extratropical. It'd be nice if they did, though, and certainly something they might look into for future seasons. Thus, what we are seeing with Delta is an extratropical system with winds to depression strength making landfall in Morocco. Would be "interesting" to see it make landfall as a tropical cyclone, perhaps bring some rain to areas that could probably use it, but that's probably not likely. Nevertheless, Vince has already done something similar this year -- and thus I've already taken the heat once for cutting off the tracking map we've got in the office at 20 W!
