Chantel Becoming Extratropical, The Other Disturbance

Chantel was upgraded to a tropical storm this morning and tonight is becoming extratropical over the open north Atlantic waters. The 11pm advisory is the last advisory issued by them. That was quick.

About 500 miles east of the Windward islands is an area of concern, though nothing immediate for south Florida. This system is moving into an area the appears to favor development, so I will continue to watch it. Models are forecasting this to develop and head towards the west, well south of Florida. Here is an IR image of this system from tonight.
