Here is the 1815 UTC IR Meteosat-8 showing the decrease in convection:

Looks to be the let down most of us anticipated. Still looks pretty good, but a big decrease in convection once system cleared the coastline.I would not write this one off yet. In fact, if it can stay together, a more westerly track is likely, may be trouble further down the road.

Still looks pretty good if you ask me. Probably see another flare up of convective activity... Looks pretty cool with the IR showing banding features.

yes convection has died but its pretty typical to see this - if we see banding and it flaring up again and sustaining then it could be the next TS - still give it an 80% chance of development.

It seems that systems that look this good right off the coast never pan out... just an amateur observation.

It would be wise for people not to write this off so quickly.

That is a good way to get jinxed and watch it develop out of the blue...

Still has a good bit of moisture associated with it. I would look for a wnw tracking changing to mainly westward in 2-3 days.

all we know,

I'd chime in with haven't you ever looked at this in a different way, crazy could of been agreeing with SFwx. It's much better to post these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality. :wink:

Sorry I couldn't resist.

SFla....after looking at various items, I'm kinda agreeing with you on that westward turn in a few days. I don't think it'll recurve like the Bam brothers are thinking.

Ah, I see now.
That's why I try not to come off as rude when I reply.. it's hard to see how people mean things over the internet.

Haha,I thought that sentence looked familiar in some ways... Can't believe people want to write this off yet :O It has lost some convection but every system seems to fluctuate on and off with convection... still looks impressive.. Will be interesting to see when I wake up tomorrow (Gmt +2) :(

Yeah ... I don't think it's going to recurve either. Unless it strengthens into a decent storm it will try to go poleward. If it's current intensity is maintained through the next day or so a westward track is more likely with the low level steering flow of the ridge.

Atlantic has eaten every weak system to enter it lately.

I wouldn't write it off... has a pretty good signature to it. We'll see.
