I'm not really surprised.  This low had been sitting out over the Gulf Stream for days.  It was going to acquire some tropical characteristics one way or another.  NHC flagged it yesterday for possible development.  Subtropical Storm Sean will only be a threat to Bermuda.  Otherwise, it'll just give some surf for the East Coast with no other impacts.

I expected this, there have been talks of a possible tropical system developing from that low for days as Patrick stated.

Okay, I feel stupid - when did they start naming subtropical storms?

I'm not surprised, either - this was pretty much expected.

I tried getting onto the NHS webpage this morning, but it's apparently unavailable at the moment.  I just get error messages.

Yeah, NHC is down for me as well. The only way I've been able to view the updates is by going to a cached version of the webpage.

EDIT: New advisory just out. Sean is now classified as a tropical storm. Winds remain at 45 mph.

NHC began naming subtropical storms in 2002.  If you recall Hurricane Gustav, that storm started out as a subtropical storm but soon transitioned over to becoming completely tropical.  It was the first subtropical storm to receive a name.

Sean completed its tropical transition today and is now a full tropical storm.  The winds have increased to 50 mph as of the 5 PM EST advisory.

I believe this will be our last named storm for the season. if so, then my prediction of the season ending with S would be correct.

Looks like Sean has a chance to become a hurricane before it dies, per the latest advisory.

Unless you're in Bermuda...how is that even possible? Sean is nowhere near Bay Shore.

If you looked at the IR satellite earlier today, there was a band of moisture from Sean stretching all the way up into New England. The local meteorologists here even said that parts of LI will see some moisture from Sean. If you were to look at the IR satellite now, the band of moisture has dissipated and formed a new area of low pressure. Trust me, I wouldn't say that for nothing!

You may have had moisture pulled in from Sean, but there is no way those showers are directly from the system.

The showers we got were influenced from Sean. I didn't say that the showers we got were from the system itself but we did get rain from Sean.
