The system then started moving north and developed a very broad circulation.[47] On June 17 at 21:00 UTC, the NHC started issuing advisories on the system as Potential Tropical Cyclone Three.[48] Tropical-storm-force winds were indicated by satellite data on June 18 at 18:00 UTC, but the storm still lacked a well-developed low-level circulation.[49] As the system moved inland into southeastern Louisiana on June 19, satellite imagery finally revealed a well enough defined surface circulation and at 09:00 UTC, the NHC upgraded the system to a tropical storm, assigning it the name Claudette.[50] Claudette then weakened into a tropical depression as it moved further inland and produced gusty winds in areas of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and parts of Florida.[51] On June 21 at 09:00 UTC, Claudette re-strengthened into a tropical storm as its center was located over North Carolina.[52] After moving into the Atlantic Ocean at 15:00 UTC,[53] Claudette moved away from the coast of United States,[54] before degenerating into a trough of low pressure at 03:00 UTC on June 22.[55]
