Its not a TD yet. Latest on the TWO says no closed circulation. Well folks another afternoon of watching and waiting. Recon is flying back in this evening.
Wonder what the delay was about?

Analysis and re analysis IMO, to make sure they are making the correct call. Playing it conservative I think. At 30 mph clip it is difficult at best to close off a circ center. Definitely getting it's act together!!! Looking better and better and outflow pattern is beginining to be established on N side.

A TD in 24hrs
My bet is that we have Claudette within 24 hrs. Forget the statistics...

Claudette
That's the best looking wave I've ever seen! Recon found 45kts sustained just north of a 1009MB pressure reading. This is on the verge of being Claudette. Just have to find that west wind down south.

Amen to that. A buddy an I were just talking about that. This is the most impressive wave I can remember. Look like a 50 kt tropical storm. I can remember Cat 1's that looked less impressive. All it has to do is slow down by about 5-10 kts and the west wind will appear.

I personally believe it's already a tropical storm ticka...based on visible satellite presentation. The fast forward movement may have masks the fact it had a closed circulation earlier when recon was on station...something I've seen occur before.
If I lived in Jamaica, the Cayman Islands, and the Yucatan peninsula, I'd be getting prepared for some very stormy weather (possibly even hurricane conditions on some portion of the northeast Yucatan); and I'd keep a very wary eye on it if I lived along the Gulf Coast from Florida westward.
