ZCZC MIATCDEP1 ALL TTAA00 KNHC DDHHMM TROPICAL STORM ENRIQUE DISCUSSION NUMBER 13 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP062015 800 AM PDT WED JUL 15 2015 Satellite images indicate that the cloud pattern is a little less organized than yesterday while microwave data show that Enrique's circulation continues to be tilted. The low-level center remains located on the southern edge of the weakening deep convection. Dvorak T-numbers from all agencies are lower than earlier, and the best estimate of the initial intensity is 40 kt. The circulation is already moving over 25 degree Celsius waters. Most of the guidance shows weakening and then dissipation in about 48 hours, and so does the NHC forecast. Enrique has been moving on a steady west-northwest track or 300 degrees at 7 kt steered by the flow to the south of a narrow subtropical ridge. As Enrique weakens further and the steering flow collapses, the cyclone should begin to drift westward or meander until dissipation. The NHC forecast and track guidance are in good agreement primarily during the next to 36 to 48 hours while Enrique is still expected to be a tropical cyclone.
