WATCHES AND WARNINGS

DISCUSSION
-----------------------------------
Kevin is a poorly defined tropical cyclone. A recent scatterometer 
pass shows a small enclosed low embedded in a larger, elongated 
cyclonic gyre.  This satellite wind data also indicated that the 
strongest winds associated with the cyclone are located well to the 
south of the center. Some of this data was questionable, and the 
wind retrievals greater than 45 kt were in an area of deep 
convection and likely rain contaminated. However, there were a few 
believable wind vectors outside of the convection between 40-45 kt, 
so Kevin's initial intensity has been adjusted to 45 kt, despite the 
disorganized satellite presentation.

Moderate to strong northeasterly wind shear is forecast to persist
over Kevin for the next 18-24 h, which should limit the cyclone's
ability to strengthen despite favorable SSTs and abundant mid-level
moisture. By 24 h, the cyclone will begin to pass over progressively
cooler waters and into a drier, more stable environment. Based on
this scenario
