000 WTPZ41 KNHC 111438 TCDEP1 Post-Tropical Cyclone Andres Discussion Number 10 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP012021 900 AM MDT Tue May 11 2021 Hostile environmental conditions have reduced Andres to an exposed, low-level cloud swirl. Although a small burst of convection was noted earlier this morning over 100 n mi northeast of the center, Andres has been without organized deep convection near its center for over 12 hours. Therefore, the cyclone has become a remnant low, and this will be the final NHC advisory on Andres. The remnant low is moving just south of due west and will continue moving westward within the low-level trade wind flow until it dissipates on Wednesday night. Overnight scatterometer data indicated that 20-25 kt winds were confined to the northwest quadrant of Andres, between the cyclone and a subtropical ridge to its northwest. Continued weakening is expected as the remnant low moves into a drier, more stable environment with increasing wind shear and decreasing sea-surface temperatures. This is the last NHC advisory on Andres.
