Dorian: Down But Not Out

We are watching to see if the remnants of Dorian redevelop this afternoon.  So are the Hurricane Hunters who are flying the second leg of a mission to see if a circulation has reformed.  

On satellite, it is evident that the outflow has definitely improved, but thunderstorms are still not very organized around the center.

The NAM model thinks that it will redevelop.  None of the global models that we count on do however.

Conditions are not totally unfavorable for redevelopment, and it wouldn’t take much for Dorian to return to tropical storm status.  If it does, we could be looking at Dorian approaching the southern Bahamas by late Tuesday.
