Gordon

Tropical Depression Gordon is producing only a few sporadic bursts of deep convection, mainly over the southern and eastern portion of its circulation. The vertical wind shear does not appear to be very strong at this time.

Since Gordon is situated over warm water, the suppression of convection is probably due to a stable air mass and/or dry air. The advisory intensity is held at 35 mph.

It is forecast to remain over the open Atlantic and away from land through this week.
