Atlantic Tropical Storm
Tropical Depression Eight Discussion Number 5

Issued at: 4:31 PM AST 9/26/09 (gateway).


Satellite imagery this afternoon shows that the circulation of tropical depression eight has weakened to an elongated trough with several embedded vorticity centers. While the system continues to produce convection that is classifiable using the dvorak technique, it no longer has a well-enough defined circulation to be considered a tropical depression. The remnant trough or tropical wave is expected to continue moving northwestward for the next couple of days.

This is the last advisory issued on this system by the national hurricane center unless regeneration occur.

Meteorologist Profile

We could really use some rain around here, Orlando is well over 2" behind this fall. Luckily, I am tracking a bit of rain that may move through the rest of this weekend. Sadly, I can't go any higher than a 20% rain chance for Sunday, which means that most areas will certainly continue to stay dry.

This Evening: Mostly cloudy and mostly dry. Temperatures in the 70s along with a bit of humidity.

Tonight: Areas of low clouds, but not much rain. Low temperatures will be in the lower 60s.

Sunday: Patchy morning fog, otherwise mostly cloudy skies and, at most, a 20% rain chance. Highs will continue to stay above average in the low 80s.
