Okay, I just put on my flame retardant bullet proof suit... I am waving a white flag and asking for mercy before first!

45K cloud tops is a moderately big TS. Rain rates look unimpressive. Convective activity has waned since I looked 3 hours ago. I do not see any cyclonic turning.  I think as night approaches Ex-Gaston will lose convection again. I think he is a small open wave at this point.

I am unsure how the anti-cyclone plays into this? I certainly don't see cyclonic turning like we saw when he was a "naked swirl"? Is the anti-cyclone higher than his current cloud tops??? Meaning that if convection builds he may start spinning again?

Thanks for enduring "Amateur Hour"!!!!!!!
