WATCHES AND WARNINGS
--------------------
There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect.
Interests in the Azores should monitor the progress of Lorenzo.
DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 500 PM AST (2100 UTC), the eye of Hurricane Lorenzo was located
near latitude 23.3 North, longitude 45.0 West. Lorenzo is moving
toward the north near 10 mph (17 km/h), and this motion is
expected to continue through tonight. A turn toward the
north-northeast is forecast on Sunday, followed by a faster motion
toward the northeast beginning Monday or Tuesday. On the forecast
track, the center of Lorenzo will be approaching the Azores on
Tuesday.
Data from a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that maximum
sustained winds have increased to near 130 mph (215 km/h) with
higher gusts. Lorenzo is a category 4 hurricane on the
Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Fluctuations in intensity are
possible during the next day or so. Lorenzo is expected to
gradually weaken through Tuesday, but it will remain a large and
potent hurricane while it approaches the Azores.
Lorenzo is a large hurricane. Hurricane-force winds extend outward
up to 50 miles (85 km) from the center, and tropical-storm-force
winds extend outward up to 275 miles (445 km).
The minimum central pressure based on data from the plane is 950 mb
(28.06 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
SURF: Swells generated by Lorenzo are affecting portions of the
northeastern coast of South America and the Lesser Antilles and are
expected to spread westward to portions of the north coasts of the
Greater Antilles, the Bahamas, Bermuda, and the east coast of the
United States during the next few days. Swells are also expected
to build near the Azores on Sunday and Monday. These swells are
likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
Please consult products from your local weather office.

Hurricane Lorenzo Discussion Number 24
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL132019
1100 AM AST Sat Sep 28 2019
Lorenzo appears to be in the final stages of an eyewall
replacement. 37-GHz GCOM imagery from overnight suggested that a
smaller inner eyewall was embedded within a larger eye, and the new
eyewall now extends 40-45 n mi from the center of circulation. An
eye has also reappeared in GOES-16 visible and infrared satellite
imagery during the past several hours. Based on Dvorak intensity
estimates of T5.5/102 kt from TAFB and SAB, and an ADT estimate of
T5.3/97 kt, Lorenzo's intensity is still estimated to be 100 kt.
Although the hurricane seems to be wobbling a bit, fixes indicate
that it has generally turned northward with an initial motion of
350/9 kt. The track forecast remains straightforward, with very
little spread among the models and their ensembles. Lorenzo is
expected to be nudged north-northeastward and then northeastward
starting in 36 hours by strong ridging building over the western
Atlantic. The northeastward motion is expected to increase on day
3 when Lorenzo is picked up by a strong deep-layer trough over the
north Atlantic, and that acceleration is forecast to continue
through day 5. The NHC track forecast lies near the consensus aids
and is very similar to the previous forecast.
A little bit of west-southwesterly shear continues over Lorenzo,
but it's not strong enough to disrupt the circulation
significantly. Only a very slow, gradual weakening is forecast
during the next 3 days, matching what is indicated by many of the
intensity models. Extratropical transition is expected to have
begun by day 4 while Lorenzo is moving near the Azores, but that
process is not expected to be complete until day 5. Although
Lorenzo's winds are forecast to decrease a bit during the
extratropical transition due to stronger shear and cold waters, the
cyclone is expected to maintain hurricane-force winds through the
end of the forecast period.
Lorenzo's wind field will remain large, and the hurricane-force
wind radii are expected to grow in size during the next couple of
days. In addition, large swells continue to radiate outward away
from the hurricane and will reach much of the western and northern
side of the Atlantic basin in a few days.

Hurricane Lorenzo Discussion Number 23
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL132019
500 AM AST Sat Sep 28 2019
Lorenzo's tilt has grown this morning. AMSR2 imagery at 0505 UTC
showed a 20 n mi displacement between the low- and mid-level centers
of the hurricane, a consequence of persistent westerly wind shear.
Satellite-based intensity estimates vary greatly, from 77 to 110 kt,
so the intensity is set to 100 kt as a compromise of all available
data. Despite the decrease in Lorenzo's maximum winds during the
past 24 hours, earlier ASCAT-C data showed that its hurricane-force
wind field has expanded, and now reaches up to 45 n mi to the
northeast of the center.
The lower initial intensity resulted in a slightly lower intensity
forecast through most of the period. The wind shear affecting the
cyclone is forecast to continue, and a slow decrease in Lorenzo's
peak winds is still expected during the next several days. The
official intensity forecast is very near the intensity consensus.
Despite the expected decrease in intensity, the hurricane is not
forecast to decrease in size, and in fact Lorenzo's hurricane-force
wind field could increase further by next week. Because of that,
users are urged to not focus on the exact intensity of Lorenzo since
the cyclone will likely remain a powerful storm well into next week.
By 120 h, all of the global models indicate that Lorenzo will become
post-tropical, and so does the NHC forecast.
The aforementioned microwave data was very helpful in identifying
Lorenzo's center location. The hurricane has continued to move left
of the forecast track, and the initial motion estimate is 330/9 kt.
Despite Lorenzo's recent tendency to move farther west than
anticipated, the hurricane is still forecast to turn northward soon.
After continuing northward and north-northeastward for a day or two,
Lorenzo should accelerate toward the northeast ahead of a deep
mid-latitude trough approaching from the west by mid-week. The NHC
track forecast has been shifted slightly left for the first 48 h to
account for Lorenzo's recent motion, but it is very similar to the
previous forecast at 72 h and beyond. The models are in excellent
agreement for the first 3 days of the forecast but the uncertainty
grows by the end of the period, primarily due to differences in the
forecast forward speed of the cyclone as it recurves and becomes
post-tropical.

Hurricane Lorenzo Discussion Number 22
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL132019
1100 PM AST Fri Sep 27 2019
Lorenzo's cloud pattern has continued to deteriorate this evening.
A series of SSMI and GMI microwave overpasses revealed inner core
erosion, particularly in the south portion. The images also showed
a significant south to north vertical tilt of the cyclone,
indicative of the moderate southwesterly shear undercutting the
impressive upper-tropospheric diffluent flow. A blend of all the
available subjective and objective satellite intensity estimates, as
well as an earlier SATCON analysis, yields an initial intensity of
105 kt for this advisory.
Lorenzo will remain over warm oceanic sea surface temperatures for
the next 3 days. Nonetheless, the stiff southwesterly shear should
inhibit strengthening, although there is a slight chance of
short-term fluctuations in intensity caused by eyewall replacement
cycles. Beyond the 72 hour period, Lorenzo is expected to encounter
stronger mid-latitude westerlies, move over cooler waters, and
undergo extratropical transition as it interacts with a baroclinic
zone moving over the central north Atlantic. The NHC forecast is an
update of the previous advisory and is based on a blend of the HFIP
Corrected Consensus and Florida State Superensemble intensity
models.
The aforementioned microwave images also indicate that Lorenzo has
been moving a little to the left of track, and the initial motion is
estimated to be north-northwestward, or 335/8 kt. The song remains
the same, no change in the track forecast philosophy. Lorenzo should
turn northward and then northeastward during the next few days as it
moves around the western periphery of a mid-tropospheric ridge
anchored over the eastern Atlantic. Around mid-period, Lorenzo is
forecast to accelerate toward the northeast, in the mid-latitude
westerly flow, in response to a deep-layer major shortwave trough
approaching from the north-central Atlantic. The track forecast has
been adjusted slightly to the left of the previous one and is close
to the various consensus aids.
The wind radii have been adjusted using 2308 UTC METOP-B
scatterometer data. The forecast wind radii, beyond the 48 hour
period, is based primarily on the RVCN global consensus.
