H.  REMARKS...CARLOS HAS MOVED OFFSHORE BASED ON SWIR LOOP AND MICROWAVE
SUITE.  CONVECTIVE CLUSTER IS VERY COLD AND HAS A VERY STARK UPSHEAR
EDGE NEAR THE COASTLINE/LLC SO SHEAR METHOD IS USED FOR DT.  CENTER IS
.3 DEGREES FROM DEEP CONVECTION FOR A DT OF 3.0. MET IS 2.0. PT IS
2.5. CONSIDERING SHEAR PATTERN APPEARS TO AGGRESSIVE AND WOULD BREAK

MOVED OFFSHORE...FT BASED ON PT OF 2.5.
