NASA and NOAA satellites were watching the low pressure System 98L in the central Atlantic yesterday when it was 1450 miles east of the Leeward Islands.Yesterday, Sept. 20, 2011 at 4:11 p.m. NASA's Aqua satellite flew over System 98L before it became a tropical storm. An infrared image from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder instrument onboard showed System 98L's strongest thunderstorms and coldest cloud tops (colder than -63F/-52C) were banded north and south of the center of circulation. Those bands of thunderstorms were a sign that the low pressure area was organizing and strengthening….
