Post-Tropical Cyclone Tammy Discussion Number 40
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL202023
500 AM AST Sun Oct 29 2023
During the past 18 to 24 hours, Tammy has only been maintaining a
small and disorganized patch of deep convection well to the
northeast of the fully exposed center. Accordingly, the Dvorak
classifications have been decreasing, and the latest estimate from
TAFB is a T1.0/2.0. Satellite images also show that the low-level
center has become elongated and is losing definition. Based on
these characteristics, Tammy no longer qualifies as a tropical
cyclone, and this is the last advisory on this system. The
initial intensity is held at 35 kt.
Tammy is moving eastward at 16 kt in the mid-latitude westerlies. A
fairly sharp turn to the south is expected to occur tonight followed
by a motion to the southwest on Monday and Tuesday as the
post-tropical cyclone moves around the east side of a building
subtropical ridge. Tammy is expected to slowly weaken due to
continued strong vertical wind shear and dry air entrainment, and it
will likely dissipate in a few days.
