Most of the deep convection is limited \nto an area northeast of the center, consistent with light shear out \nof the west-southwest. The latest subjective Dvorak intensity \nestimate from TAFB is T2.5/35 kt, and recent objective satellite \nintensity estimates range from about 35-40 kt. These estimates are \nlargely the same as the last advisory cycle, and with the steady \nsatellite presentation supports maintaining the intensity of the \ntropical storm at 40 kt for this advisory.\n \nThe initial motion estimate is west-northwestward at 12 kt, which is \nunchanged from the last advisory. This general motion will continue \nthrough the end of the weekend as the cyclone is steered by a deep \nlayer ridge located to the northeast. By Monday, Genevieve will \ndecelerate and turn to the northwest as a post-tropical cyclone, as \nthe aforementioned ridge retreats to the east. The track forecast is \nvery similar to the last advisory, except we show a slower forward \nmotion beyond 60 h. This forecast remains close to the Google \nDeepMind Ensemble Mean and HFIP Corrected Consensus Aid (HCCA).\n\nGenevieve is currently over 23-24 deg C SSTs, which are likely to \nstay within this range through the forecast period. The mid-level \nenvironment around the tropical storm is dry. The current light \nvertical wind shear is likely to increase later today through early \nnext week, and this increasing shear should herald the degeneration \nof this system into a post-tropical cyclone by Monday. The intensity \nforecast shows steady weakening over the next few days, and then \ndissipating by 96 h. This is similar to the previous advisory. It is \nnoted that Genevieve is forecast to retain gale-force winds for some \ntime after it becomes post-tropical.\n \n \nFORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDS\n \nINIT  02/0300Z 23.5N 136.0W   40 KT  45 MPH\n 12H  02/1200Z 24.3N 138.0W   35 KT  40 MPH\n 24H  03/0000Z 25.2N 140.4W   35 KT  40 MPH...POST-TROPICAL\n 36H  03/1200Z 26.1N 142.5W   30 KT  35 MPH...POST-TROP/REMNT LOW\n 48H  04/0000Z 26.9N 144.0W   30 KT  35 MPH...POST-TROP/REMNT LOW\n 60H  04/1200Z 27.7N 144.8W   30 KT  35 MPH...POST-TROP/REMNT LOW\n 72H  05/0000Z 28.7N 145.5W   25 KT  30 MPH...POST-TROP/REMNT LOW\n 96H  06/0000Z...DISSIPATED\n \n"}
