REMARKS:
Severe tropical cyclone Charlotte has weakened, with the eye becoming more
intermittent and less easily identifiable.  

Charlotte is moving slowly to the southwest with recent movement about 5 knots.
CIMSS indicating moderate northerly shear of 15 to 20 knots with a tightening
temperature gradient in northern quadrants on recent satellite imagery. The
upper circulation is likely slightly displaced to the south southeast of the
low level centre. 

Dvorak analysis: embedded centre pattern white or colder surround gives DT=5.0.
Weakening trend gives MET=4.5 PAT=4.0. FT=5.0 based on DT, and CI=5.0. NOAA ADT
[21S] has CI of 3.9 but has struggled over the last 12 hours to identify the
appropriate Scene Type pattern. Recent ASCAT indicates 55 knots in eastern
quadrant, however hasn't captured the system centre and underestimates current
intensity. Intensity estimated at 80 knots based on Dvorak CI.  

Charlotte continues to move into a less favourable environment with wind shear
and dry air intruding from the north, especially as it approaches an upper
trough to the southwest. Hence weakening likely to increase during today.  

Charlotte is moving slowly to the southwest under the influence of a mid-level
high to the southeast. This remains the dominant steering influence until
Thursday when the track becomes more southerly owing to the stationary upper
trough to the southwest.  
    
The system is forecast to gradually lose its tropical characteristics and
become sub-tropical from overnight Thursday. Gales are forecast to persist
south of the centre, or may even be enhanced. The system may stall off the west
coast on the weekend, possibly causing wind and rain impacts for the lower west
coast of WA.
