THAN 1/3 WITHIN THE EDGE OF DG CONVECTION RESULTS IN A DT OF 3.0. THE MET

IS 2.0 BASED ON A REGULARLY WEAKENING TREND IN APPARENT INTENSITY OVER

THE PAST 24 HOURS. THE PT IS ALSO 2.0. THE FT IS BASED ON THE MET DUE TO

UNCERTAINTY IN BOTH PRECISE CENTER LOCATION AND IN HOW MUCH CONVECTIVE

WARMED A FAIR AMOUNT OVER THE PAST 6 HOURS.
