To me, Jim, a tropical storm that has been a tropical storm for seven days is a tropical storm. Whatever it allegedly has been "on the verge of" these last few days is finally going to "verge" at its own pace. All this stuff about what it's "on the verge of" just gets ridiculous after a while, is all. A tropical storm is a tropical storm, at 70 mph or 40 mph or 1000 mb or 976 mb.
