Sheared Tropical System approaching the coast of Georgia
Geosphere true-color imagery over the Atlantic Ocean to the east of Florida and Georgia, above, shows a low-level cyclonic circulation with strong convection to its south. The appearance of the system suggests strong shear; an analysis of shear from the SSEC Tropical Weather website, below, shows the northerly shear over the storm that displaces the convection.
GOES-16 Geocolor imagery, overlain with GLM Flash Extent Density fields, below, (from this source), show meager lightning within the convection to the south of the low-level cyclonic circulation.
More information on this system is available at the National Hurricane Center, and from the NWS Forecast Offices in Jacksonville FL and in Charleston SC.
