In another active season in terms of storm numbers, it is not surprising that November has yielded yet another system. In this case it is Sean which has transitioned from a subtropical cyclone to a tropical storm. In reality this classification is more academic than anything else, as the intensity has not changed, and a large area of tropical storm force winds still extends well north of the center. This system will likely remain in the Atlantic as it passes west of Bermuda than north and east out to sea. Only modest intensification if any is expected.
