Friend,
One cannot underplay the accuracy of this statement. This system on satellite and radar did not have the appearance of a tropical storm. Over the years I have watched multiple tropical depressions look more impressive than did Arthur. It may indeed be fraudulent when the NHC named this cluster of thunderstorms a tropical storm. In doing so, the NHC has likely saved insurance companies millions of dollars, as named storm deductibles are higher than non-named weather event deductibles.
Can anyone provide evidence that this system had a one minute sustained wind at ten meters of 45 MPH? The strongest sustained wind I found evidence for was 43 MPH from Buoy 42035 off the coast of Galveston. If such a recording exists to support a tropical storm, that anemometer needs to be examined and verified by an impartial third party.
If there cannot be produced real evidence that this system met the parameters of a tropical storm, there should be a Congressional investigation into the methods behind the NHC naming storms as well as an investigation into any conflicts of interest the NHC and its employees have with the home insurance industry.
Yours,
TulaneLSU
