Remnants Of Fifteen-E Discussion Number  10
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       EP152026
800 PM PDT Tue Sep 15 2026

Earlier ASCAT data from around 18Z showed that the center of 
Fifteen-E was becoming more elongated in the north-south direction. 
Since that time, visible satellite imagery suggests further 
degradation and elongation of the low-level wind field, and it is 
estimated that Fifteen-E likely no longer has a well-defined surface 
center and has opened up into a trough.  The trough should continue 
moving westward for the next several days, potentially producing 
intermittent bursts of convection.  Environmental conditions along 
the path of the remnants are marginal over the next several days, 
and the chance of regeneration appears to be very low.

For additional information on the remnants of Fifteen-E, please see

AWIPS header NFDHSFEPI, WMO header FZPN01 KWBC, and on the web at
