Tropical Depression Rene Discussion Number 25
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL182020
500 AM AST Sun Sep 13 2020

Rene is producing a round of disorganized convection at this time,
with the convection now displaced to the east of the center by
increasing west-northwesterly vertical shear. The initial
intensity remains 25 kt based on a combination of satellite
intensity estimates and continuity from the previous advisory. The
strong shear and a dry environment should lead to Rene degenerating
to a remnant low pressure area between 24-36 h, with the global
models in good agreement that the remnant low should weaken to a
trough by 72 h. The new intensity forecast is unchanged from the
previous forecast.

The initial motion is 325/12. A blocking ridge of high pressure is
forecast to build to the northwest or Rene during the next day or
two, causing the cyclone to slow down and then turn westward.
After that time, a west-southwestward motion is expected as Rene or
its remnants are steered by a combination of the ridge and the
circulation of Tropical Depression 20 to the southeast. There is
little change to either the track guidance or the forecast track
from the previous advisory.
