The fourth named storm of the Atlantic hurricane season lasted for less than forty-eight hours, becoming a "post tropical remnant low" on Wednesday. The statistics on Post-Tropical Cyclone Dolly as of 11 a.m. ET Wednesday. *Note* This is the final advisory issued by NHC for this system. The technicality of this means that thunderstorms around the center of Dolly diminished, while the low pressure center moves over cooler sea surface temperatures in the northern Atlantic. While Dolly no longer exists, gale-force wind and larger waves/swells will still impact the northern Atlantic.
