Have you forgotten Andrew? It was written off by just about everybody for a time due to monster shear that virtually ripped it apart. Now of course I'm NOT comparing this to Andrew, so please don't go down that road. All I'm saying is that the number of storms that have looked like this and then redeveloped is so large that none of us could name them all. You have to look at the current and forecast atmospheric conditions and base your predictions on that. That's what the NHC does. They have an incredible reputation for forecasting these impossibly complex cyclones. So when they write it off, I'll write it off.

As I posted previously, I think this will be a bigger issue when it approaches the Yucatan channel. It looked good this morning, but had no structure.

I'm sorry but you'll have to wait for your Cat 3 hurricane a little longer.

So it seems in a couple days when it reaches the western caribbean
the chance for development may increase.

He's got to get through some shear first, I think, so he's probably going to struggle for a while. We'll see if he makes it. I don't know...maybe a day or two?
