TROPICAL STORM 09E (ELIDA) ***FINAL BULLETIN*** PUBLIC ADVISORY #8 FORCE THIRTEEN SINGAPORE, SINGAPORE 1450 UTC WED AUG 12 2020 ...ELIDA DOWN TO A TROPICAL STORM... SUMMARY OF 1500 UTC...INFORMATION ----------------------------------- LOCATION...NEAR 23.5 N 118.7 W... MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...65MPH...105KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...995MB WATCHES AND WARNINGS ----------------------------------- NO WARNINGS IN EFFECT.
DISCUSSION ----------------------------------- Elida's remaining deep convection, located northeast of the center of circulation, continues to shrink in coverage and wane in intensity now that the cyclone is over waters of 23-24 degrees Celsius. Dvorak Current Intensity numbers are 55-65 kt from TAFB and SAB, while objective estimates from UW-CIMSS are much lower. Elida has weakened to a tropical storm, and the initial intensity is set at 55 kt as a blend of the estimates. With even colder waters ahead and a steady increase in southwesterly shear, Elida is expected to weaken quickly and likely lose its deep convection within the next 24 hours, making it a remnant low by this time tomorrow. Global model fields indicate that the remnant low will dissipate in 2-3 days.
