TROPICAL DEPRESSION DENNIS DISCUSSION NUMBER  28
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
5 AM EDT MON JUL 11 2005

DENNIS HAS CONTINUED TO WEAKEN WHILE MOVING OVER LAND...AND THERE
ARE NO LONGER ANY INDICATIONS OF SUSTAINED SURFACE WIND SPEEDS OF
TROPICAL STORM FORCE.  THEREFORE THE CYCLONE IS BEING DOWNGRADED TO
A DEPRESSION AT THIS TIME.  SOME ADDITIONAL WEAKENING IS LIKELY
OVER THE NEXT DAY OR SO.

SYNOPTIC DATA INDICATE THAT THE MOTION IS ABOUT 340/12.  STEERING
CURRENTS ARE FORECAST TO WEAKEN OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. 
THEREFORE THE SYSTEM IS LIKELY TO SLOW DOWN AND MEANDER OVER THE
EAST-CENTRAL U.S. LATER IN THE FORECAST PERIOD.  THIS WILL...OF
COURSE...EXACERBATE THE THREAT OF HEAVY RAINS AND FLOODING.

THIS IS THE LAST ADVISORY ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER ON
DENNIS.  FUTURE INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND IN PUBLIC ADVISORIES
ISSUED BY THE HYDROMETEOROLOGICAL PREDICTION CENTER UNDER AWIPS
HEADER TCPAT4 AND UNDER WMO HEADER WTBT34 KWNH.
