	22:01, 20 July 2015	2,700 × 1,764 (3.38 MB)	Supportstorm (talk \| contribs)	rv:OPC is the WMO metarea for this area and has higher jurisdiction over the CHC. OPC explicitly stated this low was EX-Claudette.
	06:52, 20 July 2015	2,000 × 1,236 (2.03 MB)	Cyclonebiskit (talk \| contribs)	Canadian Hurricane Center is very clear about the center all but dissipating...I don't feel comfortable using OPC points (which do include non-closed lows) when accounting for the CHC's analysis.
