T.D. # 8 downgraded

Posted by Jim Weber under Daily updates

As expected the wind shear in the Atlantic has taken its toll on T.D. # 8 and it was downgraded  to a remnant low late yesterday. Shear continues to be the culprit to the demise of nearly every tropical system so far this hurricane season.

The center of circulation is completely void of any convection with all the convection displaced far to the east of the center. Re-development of this system seem unlikely as the wind shear and dry air will continue the next couple of days.

The myfoxhurricane.com tropical WRF model shows the remains of T.D. #8 moving to the north into an area with low shear on Tuesday. The dry air will still be an issue and even though conditions become more favorable it looks like there will be little left of this system to redevelop.

Around the rest of the tropical Atlantic things remain relatively quiet with only a couple of weak tropical waves and nothing showing any signs of organization.
