Gale center looking more tropical

Posted by Jim Weber under Daily updates

We have been watching the Gale center in the central Atlantic for the past 24 hours a large area of convection exists to the south east of the circulation. tropical_atlantic

A closer view is clearly showing more convection around a central core and this system still has low wind shear in the region and the potential to gain some tropical characteristics over the next 24 hours. This system could become a sub-tropical storm as is moves towards the north.

If it were to become a sub-tropical storm it would be named “Sub Tropical Storm Ida”. Models have been very consistent in moving this low center regardless of whether it develops or not over the open north Atlantic in the next 48 to 72 hours.
