Noel is now well into the process of becoming a non-tropical, asymmetrical, "extra-tropical" cyclone. It is not likely that Noel becomes tropical again from this point. As such, Noel will soon no longer be a tropical cyclone by any stretch of the definition. The National Hurricane Center/Tropical Prediction Center issues advisories on tropical and subtropical cyclones. The identifier of "extra-tropical" is not meant to convey "more tropical." The local NWSFOs are well-equipped to handle the rest of Noel's forecast as the powerful hurricane-force ET it now is becoming. |
