As of 2 p.m. EDT Sunday, TD 2 was centered about 170 miles south-southeast of Panama City, Florida, drifting northwest at a mere 1 mph (2 km/h). The depression’s top winds were only 30 mph (45 km/h). TD 2’s central pressure was a relatively high 1011 mb, and the storm’s large circulation was minimizing the pressure contrast between TD 2’s weak center and the surrounding environment, thus keeping the winds light.
