This may have already been addressed but and I will go back and look for the answer if it has been, but I am looking at the forecast points on this storm and it looks like the forecast has this storm still bursting through a 1016 mb high with a 1001 mb low. Is the forecast old ? This is what I am basing my question on:

If a sub-tropical storm developed in January (highly unlikely) it wouldn't be part of any season as the hurricane season runs from June 1st to Nov. 30. would handle it though, and issue adv's.
I know we're drifting further and further off topic, but Ana in 2003 formed in April and was considered a part of the 2003 season.
I was just curious if there was a cut off for the season besides the Dec 31/Jan 1 date...
-Mark
Ana in 2003 is the earliest that a storm has been given a name. It was named Tropical Storm Ana on April 21.
There was a subtropical storm that formed in January of 1978 that was not given a name, but is on the list of 1978 storms. So I'd imagine any storms forming after 12/31 go to the following year.

GuppieGrouper -- no, not necessarily. Remember, that high will move as the storm does; and, strangely enough, a lot of times they don't get those points exactly right. Nevertheless, the storm's path shouldn't bring it in conflict with the high -- it'll move/weaken (or even strengthen if conditions are right) accordingly.

Looking at the WV loop, either the East coast trough is going to miss Franklin or the closed ULL over Florida will open up and become part of the East coast trough and then kick Franklin to the NE or something else could happen. Really tough to call.

Sometime a year ago I found a site that showed graphics indicating what the various levels looked like, but now I have no clue where I saw it. Anyone know of one?
(oh, and I got unlazy and registered)

I know about those two. No, I was talking about a graphic that showed what the satellite represetation was supposed to look "appoximately" like for each level. Lots of places have the charts you posted links to, but I haven't been able to locate where I found the graphic. I know it wasn't NOAA site.

Looks to me that the trough to the north will pass Frankie by...A high pressure system is anchored off the Georgia coast and the ULL in southwest FL is sliding off to the S-SW...I think this high will expand eastward and block Franklin from moving northeast & actually push the storm to the southeast and then south..It may be starting to happen now...I wouldn't be surprised if it makes a clockwise loop and starts heading southwest in a day or two..however, with the north-northwest flow aloft from the Georgia High...I'm not sure what kinda of system will be left..the storm will be badly sheared

Ron, you may be on to something there. RECON just reported that the highest flight level winds were found in the SE quadrant.

Is something developing just below the Florida panhandle in the NE section of the GOM??

11 PM advisory states max winds at 65 MPH. Not surprising since the max convection is now south of the center as seen on IR sat. The center does appear to be moving nearly due East, though.

Just the remains of the day's thunderstorms moving off-shore.

I was woundering if you guys think there any chance that the storm could split up and reform a new circulation in the south convection of the storm
