TROPICAL STORM JEANNE DISCUSSION NUMBER  36
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIAMI FL
11 AM EDT WED SEP 30 1998

JEANNE CONTINUES TO BE SHEARED WITH THE LOW CLOUD CIRCULATION MORE
THAN ONE-HALF EXPOSED.  WEAKENING IS FORECAST AS IN THE PREVIOUS
ADVISORY.  THE CYCLONE IS EXPECTED TO BECOME INVOLVED WITH AN
APPROACHING FRONT AND TO START LOSING ITS TROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS
WITHIN 24 HOURS.  JEANNE COULD STILL PRODUCE TROPICAL STORM
CONDITIONS OVER PORTIONS OF THE AZORES TODAY AND TONIGHT.

INITIAL MOTION CONTINUES EAST-NORTHEASTWARD AROUND 11 KNOTS.  THE
OFFICIAL FORECAST IS ESSENTIALLY UNCHANGED FROM THE PREVIOUS PACKAGE
AND IS IN LINE WITH MEDIUM-DEPTH STEERING AND THE STATISTICAL/
DYNAMICAL TRACK PREDICTION MODEL.  THIS TAKES THE CENTER OF THE
WEAKENING CYCLONE OVER THE AZORES IN ABOUT 12 HOURS.
