I feel like this is how we got to so many named storms last year Expand To not take this literally, there is a valid/interesting debate on increasing numbers of short-lived storms, which can at least partially be attributed to better observation techniques rather than climate change. Not sure what this means practically, other than it might be worth considering that old averages might be slightly misleading - these storms likely always existed and just weren't observed as frequently. Not like they shouldn't count now that we've found them! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 We should just throw out the criteria and arbitrarily name tropical systems. A tad too far north- this one seems kinda fake to me.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WxWatcher007 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 As the resident tropical guy—this one is anything but fake. This system had a well defined center, a developing Central Dense Overcast, and while it was developing along a diffuse front, it was being powered by the Gulf Stream, making it warm core. No naked swirl here. It’s a lot easier observing these storms now due to the phenomenal tools we have, but we should also keep in mind that 1) this fits climo and 2) warmer seas create wider windows for short lived storms to develop. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Good afternoon all. Hope all have been well. Life happened and I have not been on much. With everything opening up kids activities have gotten back into full swing and the Mom Uber is off and running again. I did get myself a present though. My weather station has been slowly dying. The solar panel was no longer recharging and while I could have just gotten a replacement my rain gauge was having issues. Also I have always wanted a station that I can have my info online. So I just got and installed my new station today. Just finished with all the online set up and the link to it is in my signature. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Agree with both. I'd say 60-100 years ago storms were UNDER reported do to lack of observations. Things like Bill were just 'blows' or noreasters or such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
