DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK
------------------------------
AT 500 PM EDT...2100 UTC...THE CENTER OF ANA WAS LOCATED NEAR
LATITUDE 37.3 NORTH...AND LONGITUDE 75.9 WEST. THE CENTER OF
TROPICAL DEPRESSION ANA HAS TRAVERSED NORTHEASTERN NORTH CAROLINA
INTO SOUTHEASTERN VIRGINIA. AT 5 PM EDT...IT WAS ESTIMATED NEAR
THE EASTERN SHORES OF VIRGINIA. NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DOPPLER
RADARS...SATELLITE IMAGERIES...AND SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE
THAT ANA CONTINUES TO MAINTAIN A WELL-DEFINED CLOSED CIRCULATION
WITH DECENT RAINBAND STRUCTURES MAINLY TO THE SOUTH AND EAST OF
THE CENTER. WINDS OF 20 TO 30 MPH WITH OCCASIONAL HEAVY DOWNPOURS
FROM THE RAINBANDS ARE STILL AFFECTING THE COASTAL SECTIONS OF
EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA. ANA IS EXPECTED TO SKIRT THE NORTHERN
MID-ATLANTIC COAST THIS EVENING AS IT ACCELERATES TOWARD THE
NORTHEAST. MUCH OF THE ACTIVE RAINBANDS ASSOCIATED WITH ANA ARE
EXPECTED TO MOVE OFFSHORE THIS EVENING. MEANWHILE...A COLD FRONT
QUICKLY ARRIVING FROM THE MID-SECTION OF THE COUNTRY WILL BRING
INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR OVER ANA AND IS EXPECTED TO ABSORB
THE REMNANT CIRCULATION AS IT NEARS THE SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND COAST
ON TUESDAY. SINCE MUCH OF THE HEAVY RAINS ARE EXPECTED TO STAY
OFFSHORE AND REGENERATION IS NOT EXPECTED...THE THREAT OF FLASH
FLOODING IN THE MID-ATLANTIC HAS DIMINISHED.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE NEAR 30 MPH...50 KM/H...WITH HIGHER
GUSTS.
MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE IS 1012 MB...29.89 INCHES.
