OK, a couple of things to note: The system may be struggling, but there's the meteorologist Joe Cioffi who thinks this sytem COULD become at LEAST a tropical depression, maybe a weak storm in the next day or two. Yes, the thunderstorms are more organized, as Mr. Cioffi discussed this morning on You Tube; an upper level low DID move slightly southwest and slightly away overnight. The amount of dry air has been forecast by the global models to finally dissipate SOMEWHAT in coming days. This has allowed the intensity forecast to show a Cat 1 hurricane in a few days, but this mornings forecast has backed off from Cat 2 possibilities, and more models are taking it to a Cat 1 or a storm than last night when they were pointing to a Cat 2 solution. You seem to argue that dry air will continue to be an impediment, but Mr. Cioffi does agree with the prospect of the weakness in the high; so there's no reason to believe now there will even be a hit on the Bahamas. This looks to be a fish storm, regardless of whether it gets a name or not. There would be no interference with the next scheduled space launch attempt for Artemis 1. Yesterday I was wondering if there might be some effects, but it appears now that Artemis 1 won't be affected, so that's good news. The bad news is they may need to take Artemis 1 into the shop for maybe a month or two engine repairs if the leak problem is not solved this week. Anyway, Artemis is a whole "nother story. The tropics are important right now, not just Artemis.

Artemis. Had to see it once more.
