Alenga and Tropical Cyclone 02S pose no threat to land, yet the remnants of Alenga may bring some rough surf to the western coast of Australia.

Sean merges with a front

Sean is now post-tropical as he has merged with a cold front. The National Hurricane Center has written their last advisory on the system. Bermuda did in fact get tropical storm force winds from Sean. Top winds were estimated to be around 45mph on the island. Sean indirectly caused one death in Florida due to rip currents.

There are no other areas to talk about currently, but the computer models are picking up on possible tropical development in the mid-Atlantic in about a week or so. They suspect a non-tropical low may gain some subtropical or tropical characteristics, similar to what happened with Sean. If any non-tropical low were to become subtropical, they name they would gain would be Tammy.

The other basins are quiet!
