Well GD...the discussion notes that and says it could regenerate at any time. Looks pretty good to me on satellite!
data from an Air Force plane indicate that the depression no longer
has a closed circulation and it has degenerated into a strong
tropical wave. However...the system has a vigorous middle-level
circulation and a well-defined cloud pattern on satellite...
suggesting that the system could regenerate at any time. In fact
T-numbers are 2.0 and 2.5 on the Dvorak scale. Due to the potential
for reformation...Air Force planes will continue monitoring the
system. If regeneration occurs...warnings will have to be reissued.
