000 WTNT45 KNHC 130232 TCDAT5 Remnants Of Nadine Discussion Number 16 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL152018 1100 PM AST Fri Oct 12 2018 ASCAT data indicate that Nadine no longer has a closed circulation nor a well-defined center. This is also confirmed by low cloud motions from GOES-16. Thus Nadine has degenerated into an open wave, and this is the last advisory on this system. The initial wind speed is reduced to 30 kt to match the value from the scatterometer. Strong shear should cause the remnants to slowly weaken as the system moves quickly westward beneath the Atlantic subtropical ridge. Future information on the remnants of Nadine can be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service, under AWIPS header NFDHSFAT1, WMO header FZNT01 KWBC, and available on the Web at https://ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFAT1.shtml.
