Too funny, the meteorologists have dubbed Lee with a new title, "Post-Tropical Storm" even though it's still packing hurricane force winds. Apparently it just means since it's over water cooler than what's considered tropical, it gets that name.
Waddles like a duck, quacks like a duck... Not a duck???

That was the official terminology for Sandy as well if I’m not mistaken

I believe you are correct. It probably had something to do with insurance companies being able to limit their liability since it was still a "named storm."

I dont think Insurance companies get to name or classify storms LOL

No, BUT some policies have sneaky language regarding the classification of the storm at landfall. I clearly remember the "fight" over whether it was declared a hurricane or a tropical storm upon landfall. Good reminder to pull your policy and really review the mostly small print, and if you have a broker, discuss with them. They get very squeamish when you ask for an explanation of the language in the policy.
This just popped just now since it’s close to home I will update it.
A non-tropical area of low pressure could form near the southeast
coast of the United States late this week. This system is forecast
to move northward or northwestward and could acquire some
subtropical characteristics if it remains offshore.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.
There is another system that will become a tropical storm this weekend or early next week. Still plenty of time to look at it. The next update if it impacts any land massed or if it effects fishing.
