2.0 is hardly serious. Thats depression. In no this doe's not have anything to do with track. It is a T number. What it is is a scale to show how strong the storm is. By the shape or what ever they do it with.

It's the satellite imagery estimating intensity. When there's no recon plane, that's how the NHC gets their intensity. It's usually very good.

The T number has to do with banding features and overall presentation of the system. Not sure of the exact parameters though.
