Yep, again
Did anyone happen to see Erin Burnett on CNN two nights ago (Thursday)? They did a segment on TS Erin and let me tell you, it was a doozy. The whole time this was me when watching it:
They said that all the storms that have formed near Africa like this have become "big storms for the US." One of the opening lines for the segment was that its unusual for storms to form that far east (uh no?) and should we be concerned...wow. Chad Myers read a list of hurricanes that hit the US and said they all formed off Africa or near the eastern Atlantic...um ok Chad you do realize 99% of big hurricanes are TWs that come off Africa right? Seriously, what a joke. Then Erin Burnett who shares the name Erin joked how she hoped this wouldn't be one to cause destruction and be retired because she doesn't want her name retired...at this point Chad should have faithfully stepped in and admitted that this had less than a 0.5% of even making it to the US and that it was forecast to weaken in the central Atlantic...instead he took that weakening part and talked about Hurricane Andrew and how the two were similar in that aspect . Grasping for straws for hype is the worst.

CNN also did an article on how 92L could "explode" in the gulf and was headlined for awhile. That was also irresponsible imo. No credible source (NHC or other forecasting entity) gave any notion that was going to happen. Media these days...
Anyway for the most part I think the worst of Erin was several days ago nothing but a puff of cigar really left on satellite right now.

Erin vis loop shows it is moving due west, or even just a little south of due west now being steered by low-level flow. Void of convection but still has a nice spin:

12z GFS shows Erin's low level center decoupling and heading SW to merge with 20L pouch near the Eastern Carribean. That would greatly increase the chances of something substantial developing.

if this should happen would it still be Erin or would it be like the 2005 td10\Katrina situation where the disturbance split and became a new entity, if such a situation happens this could be one of those tough calls

Let's hope this doesn't happen, so we can be spared dozens of posts on whether it should be called Erin or not.

Mother nature does not care about names and will do whatever she wants to do. Hopefully this Erin or 94L takes center stage because the Atlantic Basin is a dead horse right now.

Nothing impressive with the models so no it wouldnt cause the chance of redevelopment to go up but since the MJO will be in phase 1 which is favorable to about the east coast and no farther east this may have to be watched just in case of a surprise development especially since the GFS has started to latch on to this even though weakly

Looking at the present movement of this system today which looks WSW, we should still keep an eye on Erin as it looks like it will be steered by the low-level flow for the next several days and not recurve even losing a little latitude as well.
As we are moving into late August now, these types of remnant systems should be watched closely in case they find more favorable conditions down the road when they get further west.
