ZCZC MIATCDEP3 ALL TTAA00 KNHC DDHHMM Tropical Storm Paul Discussion Number 9 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP182018 800 AM PDT Mon Sep 10 2018 Paul continues to have its low-level center displaced on the northeast side of the main area of deep convection. This convection is not well organized and there is little or no evidence of banding features. The current intensity estimate remains 35 kt, which is a blend of subjective Dvorak estimates from SAB and TAFB along with an ADT estimate from UW-CIMSS. Over the next few days, Paul will be moving into a drier air mass and over a cooler ocean. This should cause weakening, and the system if forecast to degenerate into a remnant low in 72 hours, if not sooner There is significant spread in the center fixes, so the initial motion is a rather uncertain 320/9 kt. A gradual turn to the west-northwest is forecast due to a mid-level ridge the north of Paul. Later in the period, the increasingly shallow cyclonic circulation should turn more to the west, following the low-level flow. The official forecast is similar to the previous NHC track an close to the correct model consensus, HCCA.
