ZCZC MIATCDAT1 ALL TTAA00 KNHC DDHHMM Tropical Storm Gert Special Discussion Number 7 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL062023 1200 AM AST Mon Aug 21 2023 Recent satellite wind-derived data indicated that winds in the northeast quadrant were a little over 35 kt. Conventional enhanced infrared imagery showed cooling cloud tops of -85 Celsius in the same region of the cyclone. Accordingly, the depression is upgraded to a tropical storm on this Special Advisory. No changes to the forecast track and intensity philosophy are required. Since the environment is still expected to be hostile with very strong westerly shear during the next day or so, Gert should degenerate into a remnant low later today, and dissipate by Tuesday.
