Tuesday Morning Update

Paulette looks weaker again

The Weather Situation
Paulette was renamed a tropical storm. IMO, it is already a depression again as convection has been stripped from the circulation. NHC says it is expected to drift east then move west and weaken. It already looks to have weakened.
