Tropical Cyclone 27P (Narelle) – Final Warning
According to the JTWC warning number 41, the sustained winds were 35 knots with gusts to near 45 knots
Tropical cyclone 27P (Narelle) has continued to rapidly deteriorate, losing tropical characteristics as evidenced by its sheared convection southeastward, shallow vortex, and weak presentation, depicted by animated multi-spectral imagery (msi).
The system will now track southeastward around the southern portion of the deep-layer anticyclone centered over northwestern Australia. The track will push the remainder of 27P eastward until 12 hours, with growing influence from mid-latitude westerly flow.
The currently assessed subtropical transition will be complete by 12 hours, as what remains of the llcc ejects into the southern ocean. A highly unfavorable environment for continued development of 27P exists in the southern ocean, characterized by cool sea surface temperatures, high vertical wind shear, and dry air.
