I heard and read how many forecasters said this storm acted much more like a wetpac typhoon than a hurricane. I would love to hear someone elaborate on that, and what that difference would be, and did it cause some of the idiosyncrasies associated with Alex?

At 02/00Z, Alex was still a minimal Tropical Storm with sustained winds of 40mph - moving west northwest at 13mph. Approximate location was 23.4N 102.0W. Sure is a tenacious storm.
