Not expected to affect anything but possibly shipping. It is expected to become the first tropical storm, named Ana.

It isn’t early this year. I don’t mean to be unpleasant here but,

THEY DID”T COUNT TROPICAL DEPRESSIONS AS STORMS RELATED TO HURRICANES UNTIL GLOBAL WARMING WAS INVENTED.DON”T BOTHER ME UNTIL YOU HAVE AN ACTUAL HURRICANE

25 years ago this would have been just another storm but now that they are counting storms and needing to come up with a certain amount of them to meet an agenda, anything with a stiff breeze is counted as a named storm.

1. You are confusing being bothered with your free choice to open and read this thread.

2. A tropical depression is not "a named storm."

3. I took the time to make sure you weren't on the hurricane ping list, and you shall remain off the list for all eternity. So let it be written, so shall it be done.

Maybe if he is stuck on an island and the storm surge has isolated him in his home and he asks nicely, maybe you could let him back!

It’s headed out to sea into the North Atlantic.

I guess that tropical depression that hit the Texas coast in 1971 with rain so hard my dad had to pull off the road was just a figment of my 11-year-old imagination then.

Get lost.

Mindlessly spewing Co2 into the environment no less. Making a show of it. I can't wait until Obama slaps a tax on people like you, the cause of global warming.

In the most dire of circumstances, I might consider a hearing before the Hurricane Ping List Tribunal. You know how infrequently the tribunal is convened, and a favorable decision is highly unlikely following such a display of bellicosity.

Best to avoid getting stranded on islands during storm surge after being overly pugnacious toward fellow storm watchers.

1969 Atlantic tropical season: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1969_Atlantic_hurricane_season#Tropical_Depression_Seven

And if you bother to open it, you'll see there were tropical depressions back then, long before global warming, that never became named storms.

Uh, dude, that's the point. A tropical depression only becomes a named storm when its winds reach 39 mph. This one didn't. I was simply refuting this claim of yours: "THEY DID”T COUNT TROPICAL DEPRESSIONS AS STORMS RELATED TO HURRICANES UNTIL GLOBAL WARMING WAS INVENTED" - when this entry shows they monitored tropical depressions long before global warming was concocted.

You really should educate yourself on tropical meterology before barging into FR hurricane threads.

Free Republic, a place where one can go, get the news, HAVE AN OPINION, state some facts, and get blasted for it! I don't understand how such people can read a post and just trash someone for putting out the facts.
Tropical storms HAD numbers after them, Hurricanes were named! It hasn't been until the last fifteen years or so that they started naming tropical storms. I'm sorry, I won't ever post on your stupid hurricane post ever again.

Uh, if you spew nonsense, you're gonna get called on it. If you state an opinion and it's wrong, don't whine about it.

Tropical storms HAD numbers after them, Hurricanes were named! It hasn't been until the last fifteen years or so that they started naming tropical storms.

Wrong. From 1970:

1.1 Hurricane Alma
1.2 Tropical Storm Becky
1.3 Hurricane Celia
1.4 Tropical Storm Four
1.5 Tropical Storm Dorothy
1.6 Hurricane Ella
1.7 Tropical Storm Felice
1.8 Tropical Storm Greta
1.9 Hurricane Nine
1.10 Hurricane Ten

Some tropical storms were named, some were numbered - as were hurricanes. The shift away from numbering has more to do with improved ability to track systems in real-time instead of from ship reports that might not be available for systems well out to sea. Has nothing to do with attempts to portray global warming - the lead hurricane forecaster, Dr. Grey, is a prominent AGW skeptic.

I'm sorry, I won't ever post on your stupid hurricane post ever again.

Thank you for raising the IQ of this hurricane thread above stupid by leaving it.

Get your facts straight---unless you want to argue that 1968 is only in the last fifteen years or so:

1968 Hurricane Season

Hurricane Abby
Hurricane Brenda
Tropical Storm Candy
Hurricane Dolly
Tropical Depression Eleven
Tropical Depression Fourteen
Tropical Storm Edna
Subtropical Storm One
Tropical Storm Frances
Tropical Depression Eighteen
Hurricane Gladys
Tropical Depression Twenty-One

You are ALMOST right, and what think you are saying is true. It is SUB-Tropical storms that were not named or counted prior to around 2004. Tropical storms have been named once they graduate from tropical depressions for as long as I can remember.
