The most recent tropical storm of the Atlantic Hurricane season was absorbed by a cold front early this past weekend.
On Friday, November 11 at 11 a.m. AST, Sean's maximum sustained winds were near 50 mph and it was moving to the northeast at 23 mph. At that time, Sean was just 125 miles (200 km) north-northeast of Bermuda, and a tropical storm warning was still affect for the island. Twelve hours Sean's winds lessened and the tropical storm sped up, which are two signs of a weakening tropical cyclone.
The National Hurricane Center noted on Friday, November 11, 2011 at 11 p.m. AST that Sean had officially merged with a cold front. Satellite imagery from NOAA's GOES-13 satellite shows the cold front moving through the northeastern Atlantic Ocean on November 14. A visible image from GOES at 1445 UTC (9:45 a.m. EST) showed the clouds associated with the cold front that captured Sean. The GOES image was created at NASA/NOAA's GOES Project at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md.
At 11 a.m. AST on November 11, Sean was a tropical storm and had maximum sustained winds near 40 mph (65 kmh). Those tropical-storm force winds extended 175 miles from the center, so Sean was about 350 miles in diameter. Sean was 505 miles (815 km) northeast of Bermuda and speeding to the east-northeast at 35 mph (56 kmh). Sean was classified at that time as a post-tropical storm.
