Not really, pre season development happened in 2009 and it was inactive.
Now, if Andrea were in the MDR, that'd be very ominous

Is there even any record of this happening before? Also interesting to note that we've now had nine years of the last 13 (since 2007) where something occurred before hurricane season (and all but one being named), whereas the last time before that was 1981 with a named system, and only four between having depressions (the last was 1993)

We have only been naming subtropical storms since 2002. Prior to that, Andrea would not have been named. Not sure whether the South Atlantic conventions are the same, but there is a good chance that 18 years ago neither of these systems would have been named.

I doubt it has retained its circulation since then. Visible satellite will help. I circled the NHC location in the sat pic below.

I'm sure the NHC will declare it post-tropical on their next advisory. I still don't believe it ever should have been upgraded. Perhaps it will be forced to relinquish its name post-season?
