Latest Dvorak is 2.0 - 30kt TD. It looks worse than when the NHC was saying it didn't qualify to be upgraded to a TS. I'd suggest looking at a long WV loop. Fairly sharp trof west of Debby. If it moves westward it'll go into "stealth" mode alright - it'll be gone.

Picture of the aircraft-

The interesting thing is, I zoomed in on GE to the spot where the plane first took off, and there is a plane in the GE image there that looks like a DC 8, right at the very spot where the flight track began. I don't know when that image was taken, but it would be something if it was the same plane! At the very least, an interesting coincidence.

Is this the trough the forecasters were talking about that was supposed to pull her up north and out to sea?

It's funny to zoom in and watch it taxi across the runway...

With the looks of her she looks like the dry air got her. Classic poofer unless she can refire convection near the center.

Dropped to 45 mph. Said to have been diurnal in part as well as its cool waters. I think it is going to level off for a little while, perhaps up and down as a weak tropical storm. I think it will become a hurricane in the warmer waters ahead though.

NOT AN OFFICIAL FORECAST...Just my prediction.

Cooler SST's and dry air have hindered the development of Debby. While shear is low, the atmosphere is not conducive for great strengthening in the short term. However, warmer water does lie ahead that could strengthen Debby although shear could increase as well (I am thinking it won't).

Current - 17.9/33.0 - 1002mb - 45mph
12 hrs - 19.0/35.6 - 1003mb - 40mph
24 hrs - 20.0/38.7 - 1001mb - 45mph
36 hrs - 21.4/42.1 - 999mb - 50mph
48 hrs - 22.6/44.9 - 996mb - 50mph
60 hrs - 24.1/47.1 - 991mb - 60mph
72 hrs - 25.7/49.3 - 987mb - 65mph
96 hrs - 28.9/53.3 - 976mb - 85mph
120 hrs - 33.3/55.9 - 971mb - 100mph
