Source NHC Sept 19 at 5pm Increasing westerly shear and a drying airmass along the forecast track should result in weakening within 36 to 48 hours, and global models show the cyclone dissipating by 60 h. However, given the small size of the system, it wouldn't be surprising if the cyclone weakened or dissipated sooner than shown here.
