TROPICAL DEPRESSION GENEVIEVE DISCUSSION NUMBER  24

GENEVIEVE IS JUST ABOUT DONE AS A TROPICAL CYCLONE.  IN FACT...SINCE
DEEP CONVECTION HAS BEEN ABSENT FOR MORE THAN EIGHT HOURS...IT
REALLY DOES NOT QUALIFY AS ONE NOW...BUT IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT THAT
SIGNIFICANT CONVECTION REFIRES THIS MORNING...ADVISORIES WILL BE
CONTINUED A LITTLE LONGER.  QUIKSCAT AT 02Z RETRIEVED 30-35 KT
WINDS...AND WITH THE CYCLONE IN THE SPIN-DOWN CYCLE...THERE ARE
PROBABLY NO MORE WINDS OF TROPICAL STORM FORCE NOW.  THE ADVISORY
INTENSITY IS SET TO 30 KT...WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH A BLEND OF THE
06Z DVORAK T AND CI NUMBERS.  THE MAXIMUM WINDS SHOULD WEAKEN SOME
MORE DURING THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS THE CIRCULATION EXPENDS
ENERGY OVER COOLER WATERS AND WITHIN A STABLE ENVIRONMENT.

THE CENTER OF THE LOW-LEVEL SWIRL IS HEADED DUE WESTWARD OR
270/10...AND LITTLE CHANGE IN FORWARD SPEED OR HEADING IS EXPECTED
AS THE REMNANT LOW MOVES ALONG IN THE EASTERLY TRADES.  A CLOSED
CIRCULATION COULD PERSIST FOR A FEW MORE DAYS...SO THE TRACK
FORECAST EXTENDS OUT TO 96 HOURS.
