H.  REMARKS...SYSTEM CONTINUES TO MOVE RAPIDLY TO THE NORTHEAST. AVAILABLE
MICROWAVE DATA AND ANIMATED EIR IMAGERY SHOWS THAT THE ACTIVE
CONVECTION IS LOCATED POLEWARD OF THE CENTER WHICH, COMBINED WITH SYSTEM
ACCELERATION, IS INDICATIVE OF EXTRATROPICAL TRANSITION. HOWEVER UW-CIMSS
AMSU TC HOMEPAGE CONTINUED TO SHOW WELL DEFINED WARM ANOMALIES AT UPPER
LEVELS AT 1846Z SO DVORAK CLASSIFICATIONS WILL CONTINUE. THE CENTER IS
ESTIMATED TO BE LESS THAN 1/3 DEGREE INTO THE DG WHICH RESULTS IN A DT
OF 3.0. MET IS 3.5 WHILE PT IS 3.0. FT IS BASED ON PT BECAUSE UNCERTAINTY
IN THE PRECISE CENTER LOCATION MAKES THE DT ESTIMATE SUSPECT.
