    REMARKS:
    Ex-tropical cyclone Charlotte has weakened rapidly in the last 12 hours due encountering strong shear, dry air intrusion and cooler SSTs. The LLCC is now exposed with deep convection sheared well away to the southeast.

    Dvorak analysis using shear pattern gives DT=1.5. MET is 3.0, adjusted to 2.5 using PT. FT=2.0, but CI is held at 3.0 due to constraints. The current intensity is based on the 23Z SMOS pass indicating lack of gales in any of the quadrants. CIMSS ADT has T1.7, NOAA ADT has CI=2.5 but raw T=1.7 based on shear pattern. AiDT is at 42 kn 1-minute wind. SATCON is 56 kn 1-minute wind.

    Ex-Charlotte will continue moving towards the south-southwest over the next two days, before being steered back towards the north during the weekend.

    An upper trough to the system's southwest may provide sufficient support for gales to redevelop on the western and southern quadrants from late Friday. Despite, this the system is not expected to redevelop into a tropical cyclone.
