REMARKS:
Tropical low 07U has failed to develop and is starting to weaken. The system has been moving southeast over the last 6 hours, with its position estimated from a 0921 UTC SSMIS pass and observations at Cocos Island Airport. A shear pattern results in a DT of 1.0, however this is tenuous given that there is only a small amount of deep convection left. The MET is 1.0, based on a W- 24-hour trend, with PAT adjusted to 1.5. Final intensity (FT) is set at 1.5, with CI held at 2.0. Objective guidance provides the following estimates: ADT 34 knots, AiDT 32 knots, DPRINT 27 knots, DMINT 27 knots, and SATCON 37 knots (all 1-minute winds). ASCAT data from 0243 UTC detected a small area of 35 knot winds in the southwest quadrant, but the system has since weakened, and an AMSR2 pass at 0707 UTC suggested maximum winds were 30 knots. The system intensity is estimated at 30 knots. With the lack of gale force winds around the centre, lack of deep convection and strong ENE wind shear, there is a Very Low chance that 07U will develop into a tropical cyclone.
