Position is based on animated Vis satellite imagery, with high confidence. Satellite presentation has continued to degrade, with minimal convection near the system. AMSR2 at 0311 UTC and OSCAT at 0118 UTC indicated gales occurring in northern quadrants. Intensity is assessed at 35 knots based on the AMSR2 and OSCAT passes. Dvorak analysis: at DT was unable to be obtained and there is little convection near the system now. MET is 2.0 based on a W+ trend, with PAT reduced to 1.5. FT of 1.5 based on MET, and CI held above at 2.0. Latest objective guidance at 0610 UTC includes ADT 25 knots, AiDT 31 knots, DPRINT 28 knots, DMINT 27 knots (0327 UTC), and SATCON 39 knots (0410UTC). The environment is unfavourable for any renewed development, and Maila is expected to be downgraded below a tropical cyclone tonight, before further weakening occurs by Sunday. From early next week, the remnants of Maila may track through the Coral Sea and eventually towards the Far North Queensland coast. However, it is likely to be a dissipating tropical low at this time.
