Re: Tropical Karen forms in Southern Gulf, Hurricane & Tropical Storm Watches Issued

the
winds are gradually decreasing. On this basis...the initial
intensity has been lowered to 40 knots in this advisory. Tropical
storms rarely recover after being strongly damaged by
shear...especially if the environment is as dry as it is over the
western Gulf of Mexico.

i think we can say Good Bye to this storm
