Who Thinks TD 19 Became A Tropical Storm Yesterday?

Personally, even though the NHC and the models didn't upgrade it, I think TD 19 was a tropical storm yesterday.

Why? Because yesterday it had an impressive presentation on infra-red and visible imagery. It had a good LLC and excellent, deep convection all around and very near or on top of the center. It also had very cold cloudtops, especially near the center. Also, it had an excellent overall shape (a very tight one, typical of a tropical storm). It was looking just TOO GOOD to be only a tropical depression.

Who agrees? I think it should have been upgraded to a tropical storm yesterday, when it had all of those impressive characteristics.

NOTE - This poll is about TD 19 in the east-central to central Atlantic.

I think so to but its in the middle of the Atlantic and not bothering any one so I don't think the NHC will rush into anything with it as far as upgrading it!

True... I don't think they will upgrade it very quickly - that is, if they do at all. Even if they don't do it immediately, however, I think they should!

True... still, I find it more "complete" if they upgrade TD 19. Also, it is my personal opinion.

If they upgrade, in order to avoid possibly messing up the future storms temporarily, it might be best to do it sooner before TD 20 becomes Stan or Tammy (if they upgrade TD 19 to Stan).

Aren't there Dvorak T-numbers to decide? IMO impressions of convection are way too subjective, especially since the coldest clouds are usually actually outflow and not necessarily over the peak convection.

Don't you mean it's already dissipated now? TD 20 has become a TS.
