Maar nog niet geheel tropisch. Dat lijkt wel te gaan gebeuren.
Nog maar de letter M, geen echt actief seizoen dit jaar.
SUBTROPICAL STORM MELISSA DISCUSSION NUMBER 1
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL142013
1100 AM EDT MON NOV 18 2013
DEEP CONVECTION HAS DEVELOPED DURING THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS NEAR THE
WELL-DEFINED CENTER OF A LARGE GALE-AREA LOCATED OVER THE CENTRAL
ATLANTIC WELL TO THE EAST-SOUTHEAST OF BERMUDA. FRONTAL BOUNDARIES
NEAR THE CENTER APPEAR TO HAVE DISSIPATED AND SO ADVISORIES ARE
BEING INITIATED AT THIS TIME. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE HINTS OF
ANTICYCLONIC OUTFLOW HAVING RECENTLY DEVELOPED OVER THE INNER CORE
CONVECTION...THE SYSTEM IS STILL WELL-EMBEDDED WITHIN AN
UPPER-LEVEL LOW AND THE MOST RECENT SCATTEROMETER WIND DATA SUGGEST
THAT THE CYCLONE MAY STILL HAVE A LARGE RADIUS OF MAXIMUM WINDS.
AS A RESULT...THE SYSTEM IS BEING DESIGNATED AS A SUBTROPICAL STORM
RATHER THAN A TROPICAL STORM...AT LEAST FOR NOW.
