Adrian and Arlene...sitting in a tree?

#1 Postby Anonymous » Tue May 17, 2005 4:12 pm

If Adrian weakens to a depression, and then becomes a minimal storm in the Caribbean, wouldn't it become Tropical Storm ARLENE?

I think it has to go below TD strength and re-organize. Still, the possibility is always exciting!

Derek Ortt already noted that it would be a double A storm
if it makes it.

I smell a TNT movie script ... Hurricane Adrian crosses into the Caribbean where it merges with newly formed Hurricane Arlene to form category 6 superstorm Arlian ... which sweeps up the entire eastern seaboard destroying every city on the way! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I don't think it would be Tropical Storm Adrian-Arlene. It would be Arlene.

A Name Change Question

#8 Postby Hybridstorm_November2001 » Tue May 17, 2005 4:27 pm

If it becomes a named storm in both basins; would it be the first time that we have had a transgender TC name change (male to female in this case), in North America? Does anyone know if this has happened before?

If it becomes a TS while still in EPAC, it will receive an EPAC name. If it crosses over into the ATL region, it will receive an ATL name under the right circumstances. This is how it is done for storms going the other way. OTOH, in the Pacific, the storm will retain its name if it moves from EPAC to CENPAC. I'm not certain, but given the change in official warning agencies from JTWC to Tokyo we might end up with a situation like the SIO where we get hyphenated names when the storm moves from one AOR to another in mid ocean.

As I pointed out in another thread, if the system's LLC remains identifiable, it will retain the name. If the system loses its LLC, but manages to regenerate a new LLC, it will get the new name. This is a new policy that was put into effect a few years ago, after Hurricane Cesar's passage through Central America in 1996.

Under today's standards, Hurricane Cesar would've kept its name since the LLC remained intact all throughout the passage. Hurricane Iris in 2001, re-developed in the Pacific as Tropical Storm Manuel due to the fact that the original system (Iris) lost the main circulation center.

It's not hard to understand...
