Re: Watching Disturbance off the Carolinas

Looking at the long-range Wilmington, NC, radar... I'd have to say 94L looks like it is closer to tropical than the NHC reports. The strongest winds may be well removed but there is convection building near the LLC, and the radar presentation is improving. To me, if it looks like a hurricane, why not call it one, particularly when hurricane conditions are onshore?
