I repeat, this is a tropical cyclone if I've ever seen one. The fact that it's not named is inexplicable.

I think we will get a slightly delayed 2PM TWO from the NHC to give time for recon to confirm west winds, and announce a special advisory will be forthcoming. If recon (for whatever reason) can't confirm west winds, I think they will raise it to 90%.

Bugger has the most impressive anticyclone aloft of any system so far this year.

Recon can't get there soon enough!

The post-storm analysis should be interesting for this guy.

A STRONG TROPICAL WAVE LOCATED ABOUT 275 MILES SOUTHEAST OF THE
WINDWARD ISLANDS CONTINUES TO SHOW SIGNS OF ORGANIZATION. AN AIR
FORCE RESERVE RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT IS CURRENTLY INVESTIGATING
THIS SYSTEM TO DETERMINE IF A TROPICAL DEPRESSION OR STORM HAS
FORMED
. THERE IS A HIGH CHANCE...90 PERCENT...OF THIS DISTURBANCE
BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS AS IT MOVES
WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 15 TO 20 MPH. REGARDLESS OF DEVELOPMENT...
THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BRING LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND STRONG
GUSTY WINDS TO TROPICAL-STORM-FORCE TO PORTIONS OF THE WINDWARD
ISLANDS DURING THE NEXT DAY OR SO.

Well Well....the hard work has been done.It has gained enough latitude to move north of South America. Recon will almost definitely find Tomas imo.

This has major hurricane written all over it. These are just my opinions of course.

Recon already finding TS force winds ... all that is needed is to close off a center which is highly likely

Ugh. Just name it. The longer you wait, NHC, the more foolish you look in retrospect.

Mystifying how this has no name yet.
Much crummier looking systems have gotten names in the past.
Unless.........someone planted an old satellie picture of a Hurricane and we are not "really" looking at 91L/Tomas. LOL

Seriously, this will probably be classified as a TS and the 2nd advisory will take it to a Hurricane or at least a 60-70 MPH TS.

This one certainly has been handled in a very odd way by the NHC.
