Tropical Depression Madeline Discussion Number  12
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       EP142022
900 AM MDT Tue Sep 20 2022
 
Madeline is close to becoming a post-tropical cyclone, having 
produced little deep convection overnight.  Satellite intensity 
estimates continue to decrease and, based on these and the earlier 
scatterometer data, the initial intensity has been lowered to 30 
kt.  The storm is predicted to become a post-tropical cyclone in 
12 hours or less due to persistent shear, dry air and cool waters.  
It is possible Madeline will produce occasional short-lived bursts 
of convection after it moves away from the cooler ocean waters 
stirred up by Kay.  However, model guidance suggests this 
convective activity will not be enough to redevelop Madeline as a 
tropical system.  The remnant low is expected to open up into a 
trough by the end of the forecast period.

Madeline is moving west at 7 kt.  This general motion is expected 
to continue with a gradual turn to the west-southwest in the 
low-level flow.  The NHC track forecast is slightly south of the 
previous advisory and close to the multi-model consensus aids.
