I will try to explain the difference between a Tropical Storm and a Sub Tropical storm. In a normal tropical storm &#8211; the central portion or the &#8220;center&#8221; of a storm it is a &#8220;warm core&#8221; meaning all the strongest winds will be in the center. In a &#8220;cold core&#8221; system all the winds are displaced away from the center. Also in a cold core system &#8211; all the circulation is at all levels. In a warm core system such as a hurricane, this has a pool of warm air aloft generated by latent heating. The thermal wind changes direction at some altitude aloft due to the change in the temperature gradient and you get an anticyclonic circulation at high levels above the hurricane which you see as the wispy cirrus clouds that &#8220;push away&#8221; from the center.<\/p>\n<p>I believe that South Florida will be ok as most of the convection is to the east of the center and will probably be offshore BUT everyone should keep tabs on this system as with any tropical system, things can change very quickly.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_406\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-406\" style=\"width: 720px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.corioliseffect.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/vis12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.corioliseffect.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/vis12.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"vis\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" class=\"size-full wp-image-406\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.corioliseffect.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/vis12.jpg 720w, http:\/\/www.corioliseffect.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/vis12-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-406\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Visible Satellite image of TD Sixteen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_407\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-407\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.corioliseffect.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/storm_16.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.corioliseffect.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/storm_16.gif\" alt=\"\" title=\"storm_16\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" class=\"size-full wp-image-407\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-407\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Models for TD Sixteen<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Invest 96L has been upgraded to Tropical Depression Sixteen as of the 11am Advisory from the NHC.
