ZCZC MIATCDEP3 ALL TTAA00 KNHC DDHHMM Post-Tropical Cyclone Gilma Discussion Number 13 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP082018 200 PM PDT Sun Jul 29 2018 Gilma has lacked organized deep convection near the center for at least 12 hours now. Although there has been a cluster of thunderstorms lingering about 90 n mi southeast of the exposed center, this convection has been pulling away from the system and lacks sufficient organization necessary for a tropical cyclone. Therefore, this is the last advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center on Gilma. Very strong west-northwesterly shear is expected to continue during the next few days. These hostile winds combined with marginal SSTs and dry air should cause the remnant low to degenerate into a trough in 36 to 48 hours. The remnant low is moving westward at 13 kt steered by the low-level flow on the south side of a ridge, and it should cross into the Central Pacific basin shortly. This general motion is expected to continue until the system dissipates. 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 https://ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFEPI.shtml.
