Re: Watching System in the Far East Atlantic

Looks like SSD changed one of the two 02L's back to 92L, but they missed one.

As for the floater, SSD won't have a floater on 92L yet - it's out of range of the satellite they use (SSD uses the geosynchronous weather satellites, as I recall). Near-Africa storms are usually on different satellites - only place I can seem to find storm-centered current satellite imagery for it is NRL; for some reason the Africa region at NASA GOES is two years out of date (the rest are current).
