Around 3:40 I talk about this storm, as always did a little shout out for storm 2k. Defiantly a ton of good info here on this storm.

+24: 04/0600: 22.2S 94.5E: 090 [165]: 035 [065]: 995

+72: 06/0600: 24.5S 98.7E: 250 [465]: 030 [055]: 998
REMARKS:
Tropical Cyclone Abele has weakened over the past 24 hours. Recent visible
satellite imagery reveals an exposed low level circulation centre with deep
convection confined to southeast quadrant. This is in response to increasing
W/NW shear. UW-CIMSS indicates WNW shear of about 25 knots at 030600UTC.

Dvorak: Based on a shear pattern, centre approximately 0.5 degree from edge of
convection so DT=2.5. MET is 2.5 based on W+ trend with PAT unchanged at 2.5. So
FT is 2.5 and CI is 3.0.

ASCAT pass at 030241 UTC showed winds to 45 knots.

Abele is over unfavourable SSTs of 24 to 26 degrees and together with the
increasing shear the system will continue to weaken. Gales are likely to be
confined to the southern semicircle after 031800 UTC.

Abele is being steered by an upper level trough to the southwest. General
southeast motion should continue in the short term. In the longer term the
remnants are likely to be steered to the west under the influence of a ridge of
high pressure.

REMARKS:
Tropical Cyclone Abele has weakened significantly over the past 24 hours as it
has encountered cooler waters and increasing vertical shear. The LLCC has
remained exposed during the day with deep convection confined to southeast
quadrant. UW-CIMSS indicates WNW shear of about 25 knots at 030600UTC, with a
strong gradient of shear to the south of the LLCC. The system has a translation
speed of 14 knots so system relative shear will be a little less and winds to
the left of track will be enhanced.

Dvorak: Based on a shear pattern, centre consistently 0.5-0.75 degree from edge
of convection so DT=2.5. LLCC continues to be well defined though beginning to
become less circular. MET is 2.5 based on W+ trend with PAT unchanged at 2.5. So
FT is 2.5. CI is held at 3.0.

ASCAT pass at 030241 UTC showed winds to 45 knots.

Abele is over unfavourable SSTs of 24 to 26 degrees and together with the
increasing shear the system will continue to weaken. Gales are likely to be
confined to the southern semicircle after 040000 UTC.

Abele is being steered by a level trough to the southwest. General southeast
motion should continue until the system has become very weak.

REMARKS:
Ex-Tropical Cyclone Abele has continued to weaken with cooler waters and
increasing vertical shear. The LLCC remains exposed and there is now very little
deep convection. Latest visible imagery suggests the system centre is slightly
NW of the official fix position. UW-CIMSS indicated WNW shear of over 40 knots
[22m/s] knots at 040000UTC.

Dvorak: Shear pattern, centre greater than 1.25 degree from any cold cloud and
insufficient deep convection to classify as an overcast. DT not assigned . MET
is 1.5 based on W+ trend FT is 1.5. CI is 2.0.

ASCAT pass at 031511 UTC showed winds to 40 knots, mostly within the southern
semicircle but also in a small area of the NE quadrant. Since then the system
translation speed has decreased and the system has continued to weaken. Final
intensity assessment is that gales are likely to be confined to southern
quadrants, hence not meeting the TC definition [gales wrapping >50% around the
system centre]

The system will remain over cold waters and under an environment of high shear
and no intensification is possible. The remnant low is likely to continue to
move toward the south east over the next 48 hours.
