| #1198859 (Received by flhurricane at: 11:12 AM 17.Sep.2024) TCDAT2 Remnants Of Gordon Discussion Number 25 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072024 1100 AM AST Tue Sep 17 2024 Gordon is no longer a tropical cyclone. The convective structure has degraded since the overnight hours, with only small bursts of convection occurring to the south and east of the estimated center position. More importantly, recent scatterometer data indicate the system does not possess a well-defined, trackable center, with an elongated structure more indicative of a trough of low pressure. Therefore, this will be the final NHC advisory on the remnants of Gordon. The initial intensity is set at 25 kt based on the scatterometer data, although this could be generous. The remnants are expected to move northward to north-northeastward over open waters during the next few days while rotating around a non-tropical low currently positioned to its north. While the structure is unlikely to improve in the short term, there are indications in the global models that the remnants of Gordon could redevelop later this week once the system moves into a more moist environment and gains some distance from the nearby frontal low. NHC will continue to monitor the remnants of Gordon for signs of organization and the possibility of redevelopment later this week. Information on the potential for regeneration will be contained in the Tropical Weather Outlook.
