Well, this is a record. Declare a system dead, and then two hours later, declare it a tropical storm.
In this case, the flaw was to have declared it dead to begin with, obviously.
I *still* believe the LLC of Arthur is reforming east of the identified position.

ETA: It appears that they are not going to issue a "discussion" with the initial advisory package. At least, I can't find one that is out yet. I'm curious to see what, if anything, they are going to say in a discussion about the genesis of Arthur. Perhaps they are still trying to figure out how to justify calling it Arthur?

ETA2: And as soon as I hit SEND, they issue the discussion and say this:
This system is not designated Tropical Storm Alma because the
surface center of Alma dissipated over the high terrain of Central
America yesterday.
