Tropical Depression KARINA

TROPICAL DEPRESSION KARINA DISCUSSION NUMBER  55
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL       EP112014
800 AM PDT TUE AUG 26 2014

Karina has weakened overnight and has lost any associated deep
convection.  Although deep convection could re-develop today,
increasing easterly shear associated with the outflow of Hurricane
Marie should make it difficult for any new convective growth to
persist.  Within 24 hours, the cyclone is expected to degenerate
into a trough well south of Marie.

The initial motion estimate is slowly southeastward or 135/02.
The cyclone is expected to orbit around the southern portion of the
large circulation of Hurricane Marie during the next 12 to 24 hours
until absorption.
