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.
