924 WTNT44 KNHC 180831 TCDAT4 Remnants Of Sara Discussion Number 19 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL192024 300 AM CST Mon Nov 18 2024 Satellite images and surface observations indicate that Sara no longer has a well organized circulation, and therefore has degenerated into a trough of low pressure. The trough is beginning to emerge back over water in the southwestern Gulf of Mexico. While strong upper-level winds are expected to inhibit tropical development, the remnant vorticity and moisture could interact with an approaching frontal system and contribute to heavy rainfall along the northern Gulf Coast during the next couple of days. This is the last NHC advisory on Sara. For more information on the ongoing rainfall threat in southern Mexico/Central America and the expected heavy rainfall along the U.S. Gulf Coast, see products issued by the Weather Prediction Center and your local weather office.
