Looks like TD10 may be coming back from the dead. I see some convection picking up within the low level circulation, heading WNW.

I heard something to that nature from msn. I am currently trying to pull up the article but there apparently was a news alert sent out.
EDIT: Never mind, my friend who told me this just double checked and it was the original alert.

Unless X-TD10 shows something significant quickly. probably won't reclassify it until the 11PM Advisory. If then!
Especially with Irene spinning up and Two RECON planes throwing data.
Seems like was the last time 2 Recon planes were in the same storm at the same time. Almost real-time data.
Vortex fixes every 45 minutes are normally seen with landfalling Hurricanes.

Well, Irene finally managed to pull off CAT 1 status.
Almost hard to imagine after a week of being uncoupled from top to bottom.
Last Vortex had an extrapolated MCP of 989mb.
And Max FLT Level Winds of 85kts E Quad at 2242Z.
This is with an open Eyewall.
AF306 WX09A IRENE02 OB 19
MAX FL WIND 85 KT E QUAD 22:42:20 Z
MAX FL TEMP 21 C, 140 / 10NM
SLP EXTRAP FROM 850 MB

I wouldn't write off the LLC of old TD 10 yet. Some recent convection near the LLC and good circulation evident on the VIS SAT. TD10 looks to be drifting slowly W-NW. The 12Z UKMET develops the depression into a storm and has it moving just to the north of the Windward Islands and then W-NW thru the central Bahamas in 6 days. A long way off and only one model run, but the global pattern of a rebuilding Atlantic Ridge after Irene is predicted by many models - thus if TD10 develops, its unlikely to go north out into the open Atlantic. And what's that feature spinning CC around 30N-55W diving S-SW. It looks like a mid latitude low pressure system - the circulation doesn't show up on the water vapor.

This was your forecast a few days ago on Irene now your shot at 10 coming back
Quote:
The ridge is centered just to the east of Bermuda with a bridge over to another center off of the east coast of Florida. The storm likely will not split the ridge betwen the 2 high centers because its strong and forecast to strengthen over the next couple of days. The western axis is also forecast to slowly drift north to a latitude of Daytona Beach by Sunday. What does this mean? In the short term, probably a slowing of the storm and perhaps more of a W-NW or W motion. Some models show an eroding of the western side of the Bermuda High in 72 hours and this is what is forecasting to move the storm N-NW.

actually i think there were 3-4 planes up yesterday at one time....i know there were two af planes at once....an old one and a new (had different data transmissions) and i know the G-IV was up and i think there may have been a P-3 up too.... (with Irene) With the TCPS going last month and the early storms, and not to mention air fuel prices going way up.....the AF and NOAA will be going over budget this year in recon missions!!!!! Think old TD is on the come back, noticed all day the swirl stayed there and move NW some, with a few flare ups durning the evening and now.....they may wait one more adv. to bring it back to see if it holds.....

check out the models, they have TD#10 becoming a cat. 3 hurricane in about 114 hours, and then in the llaasttt frame you can see a little spec of cat. 4 force storm. What are peoples opinions on this event?
EDIT: also, in 48 hours is has it being a TS Jose, we'll just have to seee
Ryan, as richisurfs mentioned in a later post, you can't use just one model run for any given system. The previous two runs of the , at 6z and 12Z, both dissipated the storm within 48hr -- whereas now, after it has been dropped by the , it takes it to category 4 status in five days. It's got a shot at regenerating down the line, probably in a day or so, but not like that. --Clark

That is interesting. TD #10 isn't done, and I stated earlier that I think it could get classified sometime tomorrow again, but there is quite a bit of shear to get past as an unusually deep through in the central Atlantic digs southward. It is hitting it with southerly shear at the upper levels. This should abate, but not sure how long it will take. These things are difficult to forecast (shear). But as the "TD" movew NW/WNW, conditions should improve and develop would be likely IMO. Cheers!!

is this the old TD 10 that is back?
TROPICAL DEPRESSION TD (10L)
WARNING POSITION:
140600Z --- NEAR 13.6N 45.9W
that would be WSW of the 11am, but that doesn't seem right?

INCREASE IN THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WITH THIS SYSTEM TONIGHT...
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ARE NOT FAVORABLE FOR REDEVELOPMENT AT
THIS TIME.
