Hurricane Hunters finding 50 mph. winds on the Unnamed Tropical Storm (Invest 98L)
There is no doubt in my mind we had a Depression yesterday and this morning. The depression has strengthened to a Tropical Storm with winds of 40-45 mph. The Hurricane Hunters are in the storm now and are finding winds of 50 mph. The NHC should classify this Tropical Storm Paula at 2 p.m. The track may be important to those who live in the Yucatan, ...Oct 11 2010 -
Do NOT let the "cool" weather in the country fool you, Hurricane Season is NOT over yet and the USA is still at risk, not even a low chance.
Subtropical Depression 17 looks like a Subtropical Storm. I'm sure recon will find winds greater then 39 mh to classify this a Subtropical Cyclone. It's purely warm core, but the ULL being stacked on it makes it hard for the convection/winds to get near the center, thus calling it Subtropical. This formed from a Tropical Wave, so the stor ...Oct 06 2010 -

Tropical Storm Nicole threatens the Southeastern USA.
While Nicole may not be Tropical for too long after exiting the Caribbean, she should continue to strengthen.

Tropical Storm Matthew will *eventually* head north, very confident on that!
Tropical Storm Matthew is moving towards the west at a good clip. The storm continues to become better organized. I see no reason for this not to be a Hurricane by Saturday.

95L On The Verge Of Becoming A Tropical Cyclone
95L On The Verge Of Becoming The Season's First Cyclone Recent data from a reconnaissance aircraft that was investigating 95L earlier today suggests that the system has developed a closed surface circulation, albeit that it remains broad at this time.

Tropics Come Alive: Tracking the Cape Verde Train
Its amazing how much a week changes everything in the tropics.
