NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
8 AM PDT SAT SEP 08 2001
 
THE VORTICITY MAXIMUM ASSOCIATED WITH HENRIETTE HAS BEEN DEVOID OF
SIGNIFICANT CONVECTION FOR AT LEAST 12 HOURS NOW.  FURTHERMORE...A
QUIKSCAT PASS AT 0300Z AND EXAMINATION OF LOW CLOUD MOTIONS IN THE
NIGHT IR CHANNEL SHOW THAT HENRIETTE...WHICH IS RACING AROUND THE
CIRCULATION OF GIL...NO LONGER HAS A CLOSED SURFACE CIRCULATION.
THEREFORE...THE SYSTEM IS NO LONGER A TROPICAL CYCLONE AND THIS WILL
BE THE FINAL ADVISORY.
 
THERE ARE LIKELY STILL SOME WINDS OF CLOSE TO 35 KT NORTHWEST OF THE
VORTICITY CENTER...AND THE WIND RADII CONTAINED IN THE ADVISORY FOR
TROPICAL STORM GIL WILL BE ADJUSTED TO REFLECT THE POSSIBILITY OF
TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REMNANTS OF
HENRIETTE.
