TROPICAL STORM BORIS DISCUSSION NUMBER  28

BORIS HAS BECOME A TIGHT SWIRL OF LOW CLOUDS DEVOID OF DEEP
CONVECTION.  BECAUSE BORIS WAS A HURRICANE AND IS SPINNING
DOWN VERY SLOWLY...WE ARE ASSUMING THAT THERE ARE STILL SOME 35-KNOT
WINDS TO THE NORTH OF THE CENTER.  BORIS IS ALREADY OVER COOL WATER
AND EMBEDDED WITHIN A STABLE ENVIRONMENT SO A CONTINUED WEAKENING
IS ANTICIPATED. BORIS COULD BECOME A REMNANT LOW IN LESS THAN A
DAY.

THE SWIRL IS MOVING TOWARD THE WEST OR 265 DEGREES AT 6 KNOTS. THE
LOW LEVEL FLOW FLOW IS EXPECTED TO STEER BORIS MORE TO THE WEST
SOUTH WEST UNTIL DISSIPATION.
