Re: Focus on Low off Georgia Coast and Central Caribbean

Hi, first time, long time lurker here (Hence the name). BTW, best hurricane site on the web!
Question, 94L (according to latest recon) does not show a closed circulation, is that necessary before it can "Officially" be named a TD? Otherwise the convection is much more persistent today than it ever has been and like the previous reply the latest IR loop (last couple of frames) shows T-storms starting to wrap around an apparent center, I have seem many TDs much less impressive than this but the NHC does not want to go there yet. Also, why is this having such a hard time developing, SST's - Shear are not inhibiting it from what I can see?
