I thought I'd make a topic for this. I'll be posting some graphics daily at around the same time, or at least the images will be. Help out with whatever... talk about weather events as well here... I don't want to hog every post in this topic.
In today's I don't really know what 5 is doing but it might be a bit subtropical (on visible and IR wavelengths)? I'm no expert, but I guess we'll just have to watch and wait.

I intend to turn this into a rightfully compiled list of official data sources as well as my personal graphic for it, but I will have a personal touch, for example, any anomalies in the data (missed subtropical cyclones, other interesting bits). I don't know how legit this will be if I find a subtropical cyclone or something and wikipedia or something needs a source, or anything. We'll have to see how this turns out in the next few days and what I decide to do with it.
