| #940494 (Received by flhurricane at: 10:45 PM 15.Sep.2018) TCDAT5 Tropical Storm Joyce Discussion Number 14 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL102018 1100 PM AST Sat Sep 15 2018 Joyce is a highly sheared cyclone with the low-level center well separated from the convection. Given the deterioration of the cloud pattern, the initial intensity has been generously set at 35 kt. The shear is expected to remain belligerently high and the ocean along the forecast track is cooler. On this basis, the NHC forecast calls for additional weakening, and then dissipation beyond 3 days if not sooner. Joyce continues to move eastward at about 15 kt embedded within the fast mid-latitude flow. The system should decrease its forward speed as it weakens and become a shallow cyclone. It should then turn east-southeast and even southward steered by the low-level flow.
