 POST-TROPICAL CYCLONE GEORGETTE DISCUSSION NUMBER  24
 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL       EP082016
 800 AM PDT WED JUL 27 2016
 
 Georgette has been devoid of organized deep convection since about
 0100 UTC. The cyclone is currently located over 24.5 deg C SSTs and
 moving toward colder water. In addition, Georgette has entrained a
 large field of stable stratocumulus clouds, which now completely
 encircle the system. Therefore, Georgette is now declared a remnant
 low, and this is the last advisory issued by the National Hurricane
 Center on this system. The initial intensity of 30 kt is based on a
 0534Z ASCAT-A scatterometer pass that contained one 34-kt wind
 vector, and an assumed gradual spin-down of the circulation since
 then.
 
 The initial motion estimate is 300/08 kt. A west-northwestward to
 westward motion at about the same forward speed is expected during
 the next couple of days while the low continues to weaken.
 Dissipation is forecast to occur by 72 hours.
 
 Even though Georgette is no longer a tropical cyclone, recent
 altimeter data indicated that an area of seas higher than 12 ft
 still existed near the system.  For additional information, please
 see High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service under
 AWIPS header NFDHSFEPI and WMO header FZPN02 KWBC.
