TROPICAL DEPRESSION JULIO DISCUSSION NUMBER  13
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL   EP112008
800 AM PDT TUE AUG 26 2008

JULIO LACKS ENOUGH ORGANIZED DEEP CONVECTION TO BE CONSIDERED A
TROPICAL CYCLONE...AND IS THEREFORE DEGENERATING INTO A REMNANT
LOW.  THIS REMNANT LOW IS EXPECTED TO DISSIPATE IN A DAY OR SO.

RECENT SATELLITE IMAGES INDICATE THAT THE CENTER OF THE DISSIPATING
CYCLONE IS LOCATED A LITTLE TO THE SOUTHEAST OF THE PREVIOUS FEW
FIXES.  INITIAL MOTION IS A RATHER UNCERTAIN 350/4 AND A SLOW
NORTHWARD MOVEMENT IS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
 
MOISTURE AND PRECIPITATION ASSOCIATED WITH JULIO'S REMNANTS HAVE
SPREAD INTO PORTIONS OF NORTHWEST MAINLAND MEXICO AND THE SOUTHWEST
UNITED STATES.  THESE AREAS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO EXPERIENCE SOME
RAINFALL OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS. 

THIS IS THE LAST ADVISORY ON JULIO.
