It's probably going to erode in a few more weeks

A warm-core non-frontal synoptic-scale cyclone, originating over tropical or subtropical waters, with organized deep convection and a closed surface wind circulation about a well-defined center. A tropical cyclone in which the maximum sustained surface wind speed (using the U.S. 1-minute average) ranges from 34 kt (39 mph or 63 km/hr).
The only difference is now you have high resolution satellite imagery all over the globe and buoys that send data periodically.
Before then you had to rely on ship reports and aircraft traveling in the area to pin point storms.
So no telling how many more storms could have met the requirements of a tropical storm or hurricane that did not impact land or shipping before the dawn of the satellite era of weather forecasting.
That is why I will always look at a "record breaking number of storms year" with a grain of salt.

Franklin is either gonna have a new center reform in the convection or he is gonna be running well west of track.

Everyone should.

That's why I always argue that we need to have an asterisk beside total storm numbers in the satellite era, and it needs to be stressed and accounted for when comparisons are made.
I doubt it is as drastic a difference, but I believe it would he quite evident, as total tornado counts post-NEXRAD. The jump in confirmed tornadoes was huge when NEXRAD was implemented, an even bigger jump than what we have seen since Dual-pol was implemented.

Yeah I have been waiting for it to turn north. It hasn't.
Or maybe it has slightly but it hasn't moved much.

It is just practically stalled right now. If you look at the center point locations you can see that the northern turn has already happened.

3 major global models put a storm in the gulf around August 29-31. I’d take a weak hurricane at this point

ACE is your friend

Going for a downvote record, huh?

I want rain also but be careful what you wish for.

What is ACE again?
* I did a Google search and got the complicated definition.

Accumulated Cyclone Energy.
Basically, the longer the winds are strong, the higher the ACE. A weak TS will produce next to nothing. A long track CV storm that remains a major for days will produce a lot.

Maybe a storm can take your house out, no one else’s… I’d watch that on live stream.

Did anyone really think we would not have a hurricane the first weekend of SEC football?
