Well first blog w/extremeteam!!!!!!,
The last 5 days have been very interesting w/our 3rd invest of the season and in my opinion the only true tropical invest of the atlantic season. 90L was baroclonically induced, therefore not a true tropical invest and 91L was more or less the remnants of the eastpacs first TS Agatha which at the time looked impressive due to the diffluent flow to its north creating one of the shortest lived invests I've seen thus far.
On to 92L. After analysis of the last 72hrs it is obvious to me that 92L was a TD for about 18hrs between 11pm EST Sunday night - 5pm Monday afternoon !!!.Northerly sheer and drier air to the SW and a proximity closer to the equator did not allow for further consolidation and as a result strengthening did not occur over the time period from Monday night - Tuesday late evening. I believe the strengthening TD was being pulled poleward and as a result 20-30kts of northerly sheer decoupled the convection. My forecast for 92L is more of a west to wnw thru 48hrs.
All questions/comments are welcome.....one thing is for sure alot more TC activity to come this season. God bless, be safe and happy WX watching.
I'll post another blog soon!!!!!!~stillwaiting

Alberto headed away from land; TD 2-E a concern for MexicoTropical Storm Alberto continues to struggle against strong upper level winds out of the west-southwest that are creating a very high 40 knots of wind shear over the storm. These winds are driving dry, continental air into Alberto, keeping its heavy thunderstorm activity quite limited. While the storm is being helped by the fact it is crossing the warm 27°C (81°F) waters of Gulf Stream today, this is not enough...

Alberto weakens, brings light rains to Georgia and South CarolinaTropical Storm Alberto continues to move slowly to the west-southwest off the coast of South Carolina, and is bringing light rains to the coasts northern Georgia and southern South Carolina. Recent radar and satellite loops show that Alberto has weakened late this morning, and has lost most of its heavy thunderstorms. Upper level winds out of the west-southwest are creating a moderate 15 - 20 knots of wind shear over...
