Remnants of Gabrielle

Officially downgraded to TD Gabrielle.

...

CONVECTION CONTINUES NEAR THE MID-LEVEL CENTER...SO THERE IS STILL A

CHANCE OF THE LOW-LEVEL CENTER REFORMING IN THAT AREA. IF THAT

DOES NOT OCCUR...GABRIELLE IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AS IT INTERACTS

WITH THE TERRAIN OF THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC AND ENCOUNTERS

INCREASING WESTERLY SHEAR. THE REVISED INTENSITY FORECAST NOW

CALLS FOR THE CYCLONE TO DEGENERATE TO A REMNANT LOW PRESSURE AREA

IN 24 HOURS AND TO DISSIPATE COMPLETELY THEREAFTER.

THE INITIAL MOTION IS AN UNCERTAIN 305/8. LOW-LEVEL RIDGING NORTH

AND NORTHEAST OF GABRIELLE SHOULD ALLOW THIS GENERAL MOTION TO

CONTINUE UNTIL THE CYCLONE DISSIPATES. IF THE SYSTEM SURVIVES

LONGER THAN CURRENTLY FORECAST...THE DYNAMICAL MODELS SUGGEST IT

WILL TURN NORTHWARD IN RESPONSE TO A DEVELOPING DEEP-LAYER TROUGH

OVER THE WESTERN ATLANTIC.

Just me, I wouldn't have cancelled both low level recon flights today.  And hypothetical question of the day, if a new circulation develops under the lemon, would it still be Gabrielle or get a new number/name?

I thought they cancelled recon, but I'm seeing 1440 HDOBS.  TS force winds at flight level but gentle zephyrs at sea level per smurf.

I really hope Gabrielle makes a miraculous comeback so we can all watch it get sheared apart by that trough in 3 days.

 

I think I still see some kind of midlevel swirl just South of Puerto Rico, but low clouds just West of that are moving from the South.  That is sad, even for an open wave.  Still wondering if something new forms NE of the Virgin Islands if it'd get a new name/number.

I wonder how much its' demise had to do with the 4000ft Puerto Rican mountains being just to the north of the center overnight

 

 

Besides competition for inflow with the wave to the East, it has built an awesome anticyclone aloft, and then didn't follow it, heading North instead, putting itself in the max shear between that anticyclone and the ULL to its North.

Aircraft enroute and suggestion there could be a circulation developing near the Western edge of the convection N and NE of Hispaniola.  This could become a tropical depression again  Aircraft near Puerto Rico now and picking up light Southwest winds.  GFS suggests it would have about a day of shear less than 20 knots, then it should go downhill again.
