Looks like by the 8pm update it will be either a tropical or subtropical system.
You could see in the link below it is starting to take on tropical appearance already.Great moisture, good flow. If the high lifts like it should, the steering will do the rest.<ul><li><a href="http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/goes/east/eaus/loop-vis.html">Check the boxes at the top for more info on flow/fronts/press</a></li></ul>
