MIAMI, Fla. - Don is quickly becoming a thing of the past after the National Hurricane Center downgraded it from a tropical storm to a post-tropical cyclone and issued its last advisory on Monday.

Don has sustained winds of about 45 mph with some higher gusts and is drifting off to the east-northeast at about 20 mph.

The NHC says that movement should continue until Don dissipates on Tuesday.

No other advisories will be issued by the NHC.
