000 WTPZ42 KNHC 140231 TCDEP2 Post-Tropical Cyclone Jova Discussion Number 9 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP122017 800 PM PDT Sun Aug 13 2017 Jova lacks sufficient deep convection to be classified as a tropical cyclone, so the system is being designated as a remnant low. Although the low may produce sporadic bursts of deep convection over the next day or two, the dry and stable environment should prevent the system from coming back. Based on the ECMWF model prediction, the remnant low should dissipate after 72 hours, if not sooner. The low is moving westward or 270/12 kt. A mainly easterly low-level environmental flow should move the system on a westward to west-southwestward track until dissipation. The official track forecast is similar to the previous one. This is the last advisory on Jova. For additional information on the remnant low please see High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service, under AWIPS header NFDHSFEPI, WMO header FZPN02 KWBC, and on the web at http://www.opc.ncep.noaa.gov/shtml/NFDHSFEPI.shtml.
