TROPICAL DEPRESSION BEATRIZ DISCUSSION NUMBER  11
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
2 AM PDT FRI JUN 24 2005
 
HIGH-RESOLUTION DATA FROM A 0143Z QUIKSCAT PASS INDICATED THAT THE
HIGHEST WINDS IN THE CIRCULATION WERE ABOUT 25 KT.  THIS VALUE WILL
BE USED FOR THE ADVISORY INTENSITY...BUT THE CYCLONE MAY BE EVEN
WEAKER THAN THAT BY NOW.  A SPORADIC PUFF OR TWO OF DEEP CONVECTION
MAY STILL OCCUR WITHIN THE SYSTEM...BUT DISSIPATION TO A REMNANT
LOW IS CALLED FOR IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS.

INITIAL MOTION ESTIMATE IS 285/9...MAINLY BASED ON CONTINUITY SINCE
THE CENTER IS DIFFICULT TO FIND ON INFRARED IMAGERY.  LITTLE CHANGE
IS MADE TO THE TRACK FORECAST FROM THE PREVIOUS ADVISORY.  THE
LOW-LEVEL STEERING WINDS ARE FORECAST TO WEAKEN OVER THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS...SO A GRADUAL SLOWING OF FORWARD SPEED IS
PREDICTED.  LATER IN THE FORECAST PERIOD...BEATRIZ'S REMNANT LOW
WILL PROBABLY DISSIPATE BEFORE BEING PULLED SIGNIFICANTLY SOUTHWARD
OR SOUTHEASTWARD INTO A TRAILING CYCLONIC CIRCULATION.
