I don't suppose you would like to explain to me what your definition of a Low is, then? And then, tropical low?
For whatever it's worth, storms have been firing up along this side of the trof for well over a day now, but we saw a deep burst of deep convection this afternoon. BTW - low level clouds have been rolling into the center of this cluster from multiple directions all afternoon.



A low is, well, an area of pressure that is less than the surrounding area, so in that sense, it probably is a low, but I haven't seen pressure readings. But there is no hint of a circulation at any level, which would be needed for it to be a cyclone. Or if there is, it's not very strong.
