08MAR21. TROPICAL CYCLONE 25S (IMAN), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 469 NM
SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF PORT LOUIS, MAURITIUS, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD 
AT 29 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED 
SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS THE SYSTEM HAS SIGNIFICANTLY ERODED AS IT 
ACCELERATED SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD CHARACTERIZED BY UNRAVELED/DISPERSED 
RAIN BANDS AND WARMED CONVECTIVE TOPS. THE INITIAL POSITION AND 
INTENSITY ARE PLACED WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE BASED ON A 080437Z 25KM 
RESOLUTION ASCAT BULLSEYE PASS. ANALYSIS INDICATES THE SYSTEM HAS 
DRIFTED INTO COOLER (27C AND DECREASING) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES AND 
STRONG (40KT+) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE ASCAT PASS ALSO INDICATES THE 
LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION HAS BECOME IRREGULAR AND GROSSLY ELONGATED WITH 
THE 35KT WIND FIELD EXPANDED UP TO 100NM. TC PHASE CLASSIFICATION 
WORKSHEET INDICATES THE SYSTEM IS NOW SUBTROPICAL AND WILL REMAIN SO 
AS IT CONTINUES TO ACCELERATE POLEWARD. THIS IS THE FINAL WARNING ON 
THIS SYSTEM BY THE JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI. THE SYSTEM 
WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR SIGNS OF REGENERATION. MAXIMUM 
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 080600Z IS 20 FEET. REFER TO TROPICAL 
CYCLONE 24S (HABANA) WARNINGS (WTXS32 PGTW) FOR TWELVE-HOURLY 
UPDATES.//
