NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052025
800 PM AST Sat Aug 16 2025
...NOAA AND AIR FORCE HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT SUGGEST THAT ERIN IS
UNDERGOING AN EYEWALL REPLACEMENT CYCLE...
SUMMARY OF 800 PM AST...0000 UTC...INFORMATION
----------------------------------------------
LOCATION...20.0N 64.6W
ABOUT 160 MI...255 KM NW OF ANGUILLA
ABOUT 150 MI...235 KM NE OF SAN JUAN PUERTO RICO
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...150 MPH...240 KM/H
PRESENT MOVEMENT...W OR 275 DEGREES AT 15 MPH...24 KM/H
MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...934 MB...27.58 INCHES
WATCHES AND WARNINGS
--------------------
CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY:
None.
SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT:
A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for...
* St. Martin and St. Barthelemy
* Sint Maarten
* Turks and Caicos Islands
A Tropical Storm Watch means that tropical storm conditions are
possible within the watch area, in this case within the next 12
hours in the Leeward Islands and in the next 48 hours in the Turks
and Caicos Islands.
Interests elsewhere in the northern Leeward Islands, Virgin Islands,
and Puerto Rico, as well as in the southeastern Bahamas should
monitor the progress of Erin.
For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products
issued by your national meteorological service.
DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 PM AST (0000 UTC), the eye of Hurricane Erin was located near
latitude 20.0 North, longitude 64.6 West. Erin is moving toward the
west near 15 mph (24 km/h). A turn towards the west-northwest is
expected later tonight with a decrease in forward speed, and a turn
towards the north is expected to occur early next week. On the
forecast track, the center of Erin is expected to move just north of
the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico through Sunday, and pass to the
east of the Turks and Caicos Islands and the southeastern Bahamas
Sunday night and Monday.
Recent data from both the NOAA and Air Force Reserve Hurricane
Hunters indicate that maximum sustained winds have decreased to near
150 mph (240 km/h) with higher gusts. Erin is a category 4
hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Some
fluctuations in intensity are expected over the next couple of days
due to inner-core structural changes.
Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 30 miles (45 km) from
the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185
miles (295 km).
The latest minimum central pressure estimated by hurricane hunter
dropsonde data is 934 mb (27.58 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for Erin can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header WTNT45 KNHC.
RAINFALL: The outer bands of Erin will continue to produce areas of
heavy rainfall through Sunday across the northern Leeward Islands,
the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. Rainfall totals of 2 to 4
inches, with isolated totals of 6 inches, are expected. Locally
considerable flash and urban flooding, along with landslides or
mudslides, are possible.
For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall and flash flooding
associated with Erin, please see the National Weather Service Storm
Total Rainfall Graphic, available at
hurricanes.gov/graphics_at5.shtml?rainqpf
WIND: Tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch
area in the Leeward Islands through tonight, and in the watch area
in the Turks and Caicos Islands beginning on Sunday. Squalls with
wind gusts to tropical-storm force may occur elsewhere over portions
of the northern Leeward Islands, Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico
through Sunday. Squalls with wind gusts to tropical-storm force may
also occur over the southeastern Bahamas beginning on Sunday.
SURF: Swells generated by Erin will affect portions of the northern
Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, Hispaniola, and
the Turks and Caicos Islands through the weekend. These swells will
spread to the Bahamas, Bermuda, and the east coast of the United
States by early next week. These rough ocean conditions will likely
cause life-threatening surf and rip currents. Please consult
products from your local weather forecast office for more
information.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
800 PM EDT Sat Aug 16 2025
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Hurricane
Erin, located about 100 miles north of the Virgin Islands.
Northwestern Atlantic:
The area of low pressure located a couple hundred miles off the
coast of North Carolina has not become any better organized over the
past 24 hours, with limited disorganized shower and thunderstorm
activity displaced well to the east of the center. Some slight
development of this system is still possible over the next day or so
while it moves little over the warm waters of the Gulf Stream. By
Monday, environmental conditions are expected to become unfavorable
for further development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.
Central Tropical Atlantic:
An area of low pressure could form over the central tropical
Atlantic during the middle to latter portion of next week from a
westward moving tropical wave. Some subsequent development could
occur as the system moves westward to west-northwestward at around
15 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.

Hurricane Erin Discussion Number 22
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052025
500 PM AST Sat Aug 16 2025
Erin's rapid intensification may have bottomed out near 16Z based on
the last couple of passes of data from an Air Force Reserve
Hurricane Hunter. At that time, the maximum winds were near 140 kt
and the central pressure was near 915 mb. Both Air Force and NOAA
aircraft reported concentric eyewalls forming, and during the last
couple of hours the small eye seen in conventional satellite imagery
is becoming cloud-filled. This suggests an eyewall replacement cycle
may be starting. The initial intensity is held at 140 kt pending the
upcoming arrival of a NOAA Hurricane Hunter.
The eye has started to gain latitude during the past few hours and
the initial motion is now 280/13 kt - a little slower than before.
The track guidance still suggests that Erin will turn back to the
west-northwest with a decrease in forward speed during the next
6-12 h on the south side of a subtropical ridge. This motion should
then continue through 24-36 h. After 36 h, the western side of
the ridge is still expected to weaken, due to a series of shortwave
troughs moving through the mid-latitude westerlies, and that should
cause Erin to slow further and make a gradual turn to the north.
However, there remains a significant spread in the guidance in just
when this turn will occur, and the spread has increased due to the
12Z ECMWF forecast shifting to the west. Overall, the guidance
envelope has shifted to the left during the entire forecast track,
and the new forecast track is also shifted to the west. The new
track is still to the east of the consensus models during the
northward motion, and additional track adjustments may be necessary
in later forecasts.
Fluctuations in intensity are expected during the next 24 hours due
to possible eyewall replacement cycles. However, Erin should remain
a strong hurricane during this time. Between 24-72 h, increasing
northwesterly shear should cause a gradual weakening, although there
are likely to be fluctuations superimposed on this. After 72 h, the
storm should start to encounter the mid-latitude westerlies where
the shear will increase further. The new intensity forecast will
show an increased weakening rate, but will keep Erin as a major
hurricane as it will still be over warm sea surface temperatures
during that time.
Although Erin is a somewhat compact hurricane now, the models are in
strong agreement that the system will grow in size over the next
several days. In fact, by the middle of next week, Erin is forecast
to at least double or triple in size, which will result in rough
ocean conditions over the western Atlantic.
KEY MESSAGES:
1. Heavy rainfall at times through Sunday across the northern
Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico may lead to
locally considerable flash and urban flooding, along with landslides
or mudslides.
2. Tropical-storm conditions are possible in the Turks and Caicos
Islands during the next 48 h, where a Tropical Storm Watch is now in
effect. Gusts to tropical storm force in Erin's outer rainbands are
likely in portions of the northern Leeward Islands through tonight
and over portions of the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico through
Sunday. Tropical-storm force wind gusts are possible in the
Southeast Bahamas beginning on Sunday.
3. Erin is expected to produce life-threatening surf and rip
currents along the beaches of the Bahamas, much of the east coast of
the U.S., and Atlantic Canada next week.

Tropical Storm Erin Discussion Number 3
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052025
1100 PM AST Mon Aug 11 2025
After struggling earlier during the diurnal convective minimum, a
large convective burst has formed and persisted over the center of
Erin for the past several hours, and a recent GPM microwave pass
from 11/2237 UTC confirmed that the low-level center is underneath
this burst. The latest subjective intensity estimates range from
35-45 kt, and the objective intensity estimates from UW-CIMSS have
crept up slightly to the 40-45 kt range. The initial intensity is
held at 40 kt, which might be a tad conservative.
Erin continues moving quickly westward, with the latest motion
estimated at 275/18 kt. This general motion with a gradual decrease
in forward speed is expected over the next 2 to 3 days as the
tropical storm is steered by a mid-level subtropical ridge to its
north. Towards the end of the forecast period, the ridge should
erode some, which would allow Erin to turn toward the west-northwest
and gain some latitude. However, there are some differences in the
global models as to how significant the weakness in the ridge will
be, and this will affect how far north the cyclone gets by day 5.
Some of the recent model solutions are a bit farther to the left (or
southwest) at the end of the forecast period. The NHC forecast is
nudged only very slightly to the left at days 4-5, and now lies
slightly to the north of the latest consensus aids. Based on the
model spread, the confidence in the track forecast appears to be
about average.
Erin is expected to remain in low vertical wind shear conditions for
the next 3-4 days. The thermodynamic environment is less favorable
in the short-term, with sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) around
26-27C, and stable stratocumulus clouds noted just to the west and
northwest of Erin. Only slow strengthening is forecast during the
next 1 to 2 days until Erin reaches warmer water. A faster rate of
intensification is anticipated after that time. The latest NHC
forecast is very similar to the previous one, and lies slightly
below the intensity consensus for the first 36 h. Thereafter, the
NHC intensity forecast is near the middle of the intensity guidance
envelope. It is possible that vertical wind shear could increase in
4 to 5 days, but that will depend on where the upper-level ridge is
situated in relation to Erin, which is uncertain at this time.
KEY MESSAGES:
1. It is still too early to determine what impacts, if any, Erin may
bring to the northern Leeward Islands, Bermuda, or the east coast of
the United States. As we approach the climatological peak of the
hurricane season, it is an opportune time to ensure your
preparedness plans are in place.

800 PM EDT Mon Aug 11 2025
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Erin, located over the eastern tropical Atlantic several
hundred miles west of the Cabo Verde Islands.
Northwestern Atlantic:
A non-tropical area of low pressure located a few hundred miles
south-southeast of Nova Scotia, Canada is producing disorganized
shower and thunderstorm activity to the west of its center. Some
limited tropical or subtropical development is possible over the
next day or two as the low drifts westward near the relatively warm
waters of the Gulf Stream. By the middle of this week, the system
is expected to move northward over cooler waters, ending its chances
for further tropical development.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.
Central Atlantic:
A weak surface trough of low pressure located over the central
Atlantic is interacting with an upper-level disturbance, producing
scattered disorganized showers. Development of this system is not
expected as it drifts generally northward over the next day or two.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...near 0 percent.
Northeastern Gulf:
A surface trough in the north-central Gulf is associated with a
broad area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. While
development of this system is not anticipated before it moves inland
on Tuesday, locally heavy rainfall could produce flash flooding
across portions of the Florida Panhandle, southern Alabama, southern
Mississippi and southeastern Louisiana over the next day or so. For
more information on the rainfall hazards related to this system,
please see products issued by your local National Weather Service
forecast office.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...near 0 percent.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 AM EDT Mon Aug 11 2025
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL97):
Showers and thunderstorms continue to show signs of organization
in association with a well-defined low pressure area located near
the northwestern Cabo Verde Islands. The system will likely become
a tropical depression within the next day or so while it moves
generally westward. Locally heavy rainfall and gusty winds are
expected to continue today across portions of the Cabo Verde
Islands, and interests there should monitor the progress of this
system.
Even if a tropical depression does not form over the next day or so,
environmental conditions appear conducive for later development, and
a tropical depression or tropical storm is expected to form by the
middle to latter portion of this week while moving westward to
west-northwestward at 15 to 20 mph across the eastern and central
tropical Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.
Central Atlantic (AL96):
Disorganized showers and thunderstorms continue in association with
a trough of low pressure located over the central tropical Atlantic.
Some gradual development is possible during the middle part of this
week while the system moves generally northward over the central
Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.
