Sometimes folks are caught flat-footed, as in the case of Hurricane Alex, which, IIRC, went straight from either a "nothing" or a TD straight to a HUR when morning satellite visibles revealed a tiny closed eye chugging away.gkrangers wrote:I'm not positive here, but the storms that are immediately declared TS, are probably Invest areas that recon flew into and found a closed LLC and TS winds.Theres no recon when the storms are coming off Africa...so they just go off satellite estimates. So its unlikely to get a invest right to TS out there.Astro_man92 wrote:so is that why some storms start out as imidiate TS because the winds where TS strength when the surfac circulation started?gkrangers wrote:It needs a surface circulation first...
