Can we say that 90L is dead?

Dead duck this system that although it fighted for a long time dry air and shear finnaly it couldn't survive.

Now the atlantic basin is very quiet until the african coast where a wave is emerging but conditions are not ideal as dry air covers much of the tropical atlantic even making the ITCZ that always have convection almost free of that.As ticka said in another thread she may extend for 2 more weeks the lull in top of the 2 already so if she is right it may be by the last days of this month that something may brew. :)

I still saw what looked like a low level rotation this morning. It may be in a coma but I don't know about dead yet :-)

I think 90L still has a LLS but it's unable to sustain convection without help of upper dynamics. 90L looks pretty much dead in the water. (No pun intended).
