Tropical Depression Chantal Discussion Number  12
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL042019
500 PM AST Fri Aug 23 2019

Chantal is now producing only isolated showers and thunderstorms,
and the low-level circulation is gradually becoming less well
defined.  The depression should decay to a remnant low during the
next several hours.  The remnant low is expected to dissipate by
72 h, which again is unchanged from the previous forecast.

The initial motion is now 170/6.  Chantal or its remnants should
turn southwest and west during the next 24-48 hours as the
subtropical ridge re-forms north and east of the system.  After
that, a slow motion toward the northwest is expected before the
system dissipates completely.
