ZCZC MIATCDEP3 ALL TTAA00 KNHC DDHHMM TROPICAL STORM GEORGETTE DISCUSSION NUMBER 23 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP082016 200 AM PDT WED JUL 27 2016 Georgette is on borrowed time. Enhanced IR imagery shows no deep convection associated with the system, and if this condition persists, the cyclone will be declared a remnant low later today. The official forecast delays this event slightly, to allow for the possibility that thunderstorms may redevelop in the circulation. A scatterometer overpass indicated that the maximum winds were 35 kt, and that these tropical-storm-force winds were confined to the northeastern quadrant of the system. A continued spin down of the circulation over cooler waters is forecast and the cyclone should dissipate in 2-3 days. The center is difficult to locate on night time images, but my best estimate of initial motion is 310/5 kt. Georgette, or its remnant low, should move on a west-northwestward to westward heading, within the low-level tradewinds, until dissipation. The official track forecast is a blend of the latest GFS and ECMWF predictions.
