Subtropical Storm Patty Discussion Number   7
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL172024
900 PM GMT Sun Nov 03 2024

After being devoid of deep convection for much of the day,
thunderstorms have reformed near the center of Patty.  Therefore,
Patty will hold its subtropical storm designation for now.  The
initial intensity is held at 40 kt in deference to the earlier
scatterometer data.  However, strong vertical wind shear, dry
mid-latitude air, and cool sea surface temperatures should weaken
Patty during the next couple of days.  No changes have been made to
the latest NHC intensity forecast.

The storm is moving eastward at 15 kt and is forecast to move
eastward to east-northeastward for the next couple of days.  Patty
is still expected to open into a trough near or over western Europe,
and only minor adjustments have been made to the official track
forecast.
