How is this not at least a depression already? It looks more like a tropical storm. Do they really need to wait for recon to upgrade this thing? I say upgrade it now and lets get a projected path and cone as this is closing in on the islands quickly.

Quite a spectacular looking system. I agree that it should have been code red, but without a well defined LLC, the convection could easily fall apart. That's not what's happening right now though, there's plenty of convection and new convection is constantly firing. This is probably one of the most impressive looking disturbances that I have seen all season, it's very expansive, has well defined curvature, and plenty of moisture.

I wonder what the future holds for 91L.

Looks like convection is consolidating in a band building near and to the E of the center. Focused convection is another sign of organization.

The size between now TS Shary SSE of Bermuda and 91L is 4 times larger in favor of 91L.

It looks like 90L from earlier this season (Or what ever one it was). Maybe there waiting for it to shrink and consolidate.

If I didn't know the date, just looking at that image gator posted, I would think this was late August/September.

Both the GFS/ECM forecast ridging to build along the east coast once the trough lifts out later next week. The latest 18z GFS solution is interesting as it takes it across Haiti than N to just NE of the bahamas then back to the wsw towards the bahamas as it gets trapped by the ridge along the east coast...

I know it's ridiculously far out, but the 18Z GFS reminded me a lot of Jeanne from 2004.

Yeah I see that. Interesting the gfs keeps it quite strong too. Looks like something you would see approaching the Bahamas from the east in august or september.

We do note that is 300+ hours into that run.
