Re: Tropical Depression 16 Forms in Caribbean Watches/Warnings Issued

From what I can see on the visible floater loop, a broad center of circulation is clearly evident just SW of the Isle of Youth. Colder cloud tops are starting to wrap around this center, as well. Could this be the short burst of strengthening the NHC is forecasting before the actual first landfall in Cuba, and has it reached tropical storm status yet? I guess we'll see at 5, or until the next recon fix.
