NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL   EP182008
700 PM PST TUE NOV 04 2008

AN ASCAT PASS AT 1800 UTC INDICATED THAT THE CENTER OF CIRCULATION
WAS DEGENERATING INTO AN OPEN TROUGH.  SINCE THAT TIME...A
LOW-LEVEL CLOUD SWIRL HAS BECOME EXPOSED AND INCREASINGLY SEPARATED
FROM THE DIMINISHING DEEP CONVECTION.  BASED ON THE LACK OF A
WELL-DEFINED CIRCULATION CENTER...ADVISORIES ON POLO ARE BEING
DISCONTINUED.  THE REMNANT LOW-LEVEL VORTICITY...CURRENTLY MOVING
AT 270/12...IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ON THIS PATH IN THE LOW-LEVEL
FLOW.  UPPER-LEVEL WESTERLIES SHOULD PRECLUDE REGENERATION.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS SYSTEM CAN BE FOUND IN HIGH SEAS
FORECASTS ISSUED BY THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE...UNDER AWIPS
HEADER NFDHSFAT1 AND WMO HEADER FZNT01 KWBC.
