Post-Tropical Cyclone Edouard Discussion Number 10

Although Edouard continues to produce some deep convection, recent
satellite imagery and scatterometer data indicate that the center of
the cyclone has merged with a frontal boundary. Therefore, the
system is now classified as extratropical and this is the last
advisory. The scatterometer data showed max winds of 35-40 kt, so
the initial intensity remains 40 kt. The 35 kt wind radii were
also increased in the southeast quadrant based on the scatterometer
data.

The post-tropical cyclone is forecast to continue moving quickly
northeastward for the next day or so until it is absorbed into a
larger frontal zone over the north Atlantic late Tuesday or early
Wednesday. The NHC track and intensity forecast is close to the
global model consensus, and all of those models are in good
agreement for the next 24 h.

This is the last NHC advisory on Edouard. Additional information on
this system can be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the
National Weather Service, under AWIPS header NFDHSFAT1, WMO header
FZNT01 KWBC, and online at ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFAT1.php
