SUMMARY OF 200 AM PDT...0900 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...24.5N 115.0W ABOUT 170 MI...275 KM W OF CABO SAN LAZARO MEXICO MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...35 MPH...55 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...STATIONARY MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1002 MB...29.59 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. Interests in Baja California Sur and Sonora, Mexico, should continue to monitor the risk of heavy rainfall and flash flooding associated with Lorena. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 200 AM PDT (0900 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Lorena was located near latitude 24.5 North, longitude 115.0 West. The post-tropical cyclone is currently nearly stationary. A slow north-northwestward to northwestward motion is expected through early Saturday, followed by a turn toward the west-northwest over the weekend. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts. Additional weakening is forecast, and the remnant low is expected to dissipate by late Sunday or Sunday night. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1002 mb (29.59 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Lorena can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP2 and WMO header WTPZ42 KNHC. RAINFALL: Bands of heavy rainfall will continue to impact Baja California Sur and Sonora Mexico through today. Additional rainfall totals of 4 to 8 inches, with maximum storm total amounts of 12 inches, are possible across portions of Baja California Sur, far southeast Baja California, southwestern Sonora, and northern Sinaloa through tonight. This will bring the risk of life-threatening flash floods and mudslides, especially in areas of higher terrain. Elsewhere across Mexico, 2 to 4 inches of rain, with isolated totals up to 6 inches, are expected across the remainder of Sonora. These amounts will lead to isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding. Across the southwestern United States, 1 to 2 inches of rain, with isolated totals up to 4 inches, are expected across portions of Arizona and New Mexico through Saturday, bringing the potential for isolated to scattered flash flooding. For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall and flash flooding associated with Lorena, please see the National Weather Service Storm Total Rainfall Graphic, available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_ep2.shtml?rainqpf SURF: Swells generated by Lorena will continue affecting portions of the west coast of Baja California Sur through today. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- This is the last advisory on Lorena by the National Hurricane Center. For additional information on the remnant low please see High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service, under AWIPS header NFDHSFEPI, WMO header FZPN02 KWBC, and on the web at ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFEPI.php Rainfall forecasts for the United States can be found at https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/qpf2.shtml and outlooks of flash flood risks can be found at https://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/qpf/excessive_rainfall_outlook_ero.php For rainfall forecasts in northwestern Mexico, please see products from the Meteorological Service of Mexico. $$ Forecaster Beven

...LORENA DEGENERATES TO A REMNANT LOW PRESSURE AREA... ...MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE RISK OF LIFE-THREATENING FLASH FLOODING CONTINUES FOR BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR AND SONORA THROUGH TODAY...

Issued at 1100 PM HST Thu Sep 04 2025 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 050859 TCDEP1 Hurricane Kiko Discussion Number 21 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP112025 1100 PM HST Thu Sep 04 2025 The satellite presentation of Kiko has slowly deteriorated this evening, with the eye remaining mostly obscured by a central dense overcast with cloud top temperatures of -65 to -80C. A timely 05/0313Z WSFM microwave pass was helpful in locating the low-level center of Kiko, with the image also showing hints that an outer eyewall may be forming as part of an eyewall replacement cycle, which is possible considering the favorable environmental conditions the cyclone is traversing at the moment. The most recent conventional satellite images seem to lend credence to this possibility of an eyewall replacement cycle, with an eye beginning to re-develop and a deep convective ring developing around it. The most recent subjective Dvorak current intensity estimates from TAFB and SAB were 6.0/115 kt and 5.5/102 kt respectively, while the objective AiDT and ADT estimates from UW-CIMSS have ranged between 98 and 115 kt through the evening. Based on a blend of these data and accounting for recent satellite trends, the initial intensity has been held at 110 kt for this advisory, with Kiko remaining a strong category 3 hurricane. Kiko is moving due west, or 270 degrees, at 8 kt. A gradual turn toward the west-northwest is expected to begin later tonight or Friday, as the western extent of a subtropical ridge to the north of the cyclone is eroded by developing upper-level low north of Hawaii. This general west-northwestward motion along with a gradual increase in forward speed is forecast through the weekend and into early next week, as Kiko moves along the southwest periphery of the subtropical ridge to the northeast and toward a westward moving upper-level low to the north and northwest of the Hawaiian Islands. The latest track forecast is slightly south of the previous forecast through day 3 due to a delay in Kiko’s west-northwest turn, then very similar to the previous track on days 4 and 5. The track forecast is closest to the TVCE and EMXI aids and to the south of the HCCA and FSSE consensus. Kiko will remain over warm waters of 27–28C for the next 24 hours, while influenced by light northeasterly vertical wind shear, although the cyclone will remain in a drier than optimal mid-level environment. Despite the dry mid-level airmass Kiko will be moving through, the other factors appear favorable for some slight intensification, provided that the eyewall replacement cycle which is likely ongoing, completes. From 24 hours to 60 hours, Kiko will move over slightly cooler waters of 26 to 27C and into a drier mid-level environment with humidity levels below 50 percent. These less favorable conditions should lead to gradual weakening of the system, despite the continued very light vertical wind shear. Beginning on day 3 and continuing through day 5, the cyclone will be move over cooler water near or slightly below 26C, with west-southwesterly vertical wind shear ramping up steadily to more than 30 kt by day 5, and mid-level moisture will plummet below 40 percent. The increasingly hostile environment should lead to rapid weakening of Kiko as the cyclone approaches the Hawaiian Islands from the east-southeast. The official intensity forecast has been lowered slightly from the previous advisory cycle, but remains on the higher end of the intensity aids through 60 hours, due to the continued potential for Kiko to develop annular characteristics. The intensity forecast then trends closer middle of the intensity consensus envelop by days 3 through 5, with Kiko forecast to be a tropical storm by day 5 as it moves very close to the eastern end of the Hawaiian Island chain. Key Messages: 1. Kiko is forecast to approach the Hawaiian Islands during the early to the middle portion of next week. The risk of direct impacts from wind and rainfall is increasing. However, it is too soon to determine the exact location or magnitude of these impacts, and interests there should continue to monitor the progress of this storm.

Given the mostly favorable environment that the cyclone is traversing, it is likely that Kiko is once again undergoing an eyewall replacement. The most recent subjective Dvorak current intensity estimates from TAFB and SAB were 6.0/115 kt and 5.5/102 kt respectively, while the objective estimates from UW-CIMSS have ranged between 101 and 117 kt during the past several hours. Based on a blend of these data and accounting for the degradation in satellite appearance, the initial intensity has been lowered to 110 kt for this advisory, and Kiko is now a category 3 hurricane. Kiko is moving just north of due west, or 275 degrees, at 8 kt. A gradual turn toward the west-northwest is expected tonight and Friday, as the western extent of a subtropical ridge to the north of the cyclone is eroded by developing upper-level low north of Hawaii. This general motion along with a gradual increase in forward speed is forecast to continue over the weekend and through early next week, as Kiko moves along the southwest periphery of the subtropical ridge to the northeast and toward a westward moving upper-level low to the north and northwest of the Hawaiian Islands. The latest track forecast is very close to the previous forecast through 60 hours, and slightly to the north of the previous forecast for days 3 through 5, following the latest guidance trends. The track forecast is closest to the TVCE consensus aid, and is to the south of the HCCA and FSSE consensus aids. Kiko will remain over warm waters of 27–28C for the next 24 hours, while influenced by light northeasterly vertical wind shear and in a somewhat drier than optimal mid-level environment. Despite the dry mid-level airmass, the mostly favorable environment could lead to some slight intensification tonight and Friday, provided that the eyewall replacement cycle which is likely ongoing, completes. Beyond 24 hours through day 3, Kiko will move over slightly cooler waters of 26 to 27C and into a drier mid-level environment with humidity levels below 50 percent. Despite very light vertical wind shear, these less favorable conditions should lead to gradual weakening of the cyclone. By days 4 and 5, Kiko will be moving over cooler water near or slightly below 26C, with west-southwesterly vertical wind shear ramping up to more than 30 kt by day 5, while mid-level moisture also plummets below 40 percent. The increasingly hostile environment should lead to rapid weakening of Kiko as the cyclone approaches the Hawaiian Islands from the east-southeast. The official intensity forecast has been lowered slightly from the previous advisory cycle, but remains on the higher end or slightly above the intensity aids through day 3 due to the continued potential for Kiko to develop annular characteristics. The intensity forecast then trends closer to the intensity consensus aid HCCA by days 4 and 5, with Kiko forecast to be a tropical storm by day 5 as it nears the eastern end of the Hawaiian Island chain. Key Messages: 1. Kiko is forecast to approach the Hawaiian Islands during the early to the middle portion of next week. The risk of direct impacts from wind and rainfall is increasing. However, it is too soon to determine the exact location or magnitude of these impacts, and interests there should continue to monitor the progress of this storm.

Issued at 800 PM PDT Thu Sep 04 2025 598 WTPZ42 KNHC 050238 TCDEP2 Tropical Storm Lorena Discussion Number 13 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP122025 800 PM PDT Thu Sep 04 2025 Lorena has not produced deep convection near its center since about 8 AM this morning. Waves of heavy showers and thunderstorms continue to stream northeastward across Baja California Sur, Sonora, and northern Sinaloa, but this activity cannot be directly linked to Lorena's circulation. Weakening is assumed to have occurred since the earlier aircraft and ASCAT data, and the intensity is set at 40 kt based on a blend of Dvorak CI numbers and objective numbers (which are between 30 and 45 kt). With Lorena over cool waters and southwesterly shear only expected to increase, deep convection is not forecast to redevelop, and Lorena is likely to become post-tropical Friday morning. Winds will continue to steadily decrease, with the remnant low likely to dissipate by late Sunday. Lorena has been moving west of the dynamical model guidance over the past 6 to 12 hours, and the best-performing track models since this morning have been the simple shallow Trajectory and Beta Advection (TABS) models. Given that the circulation will remain shallow, the new NHC track forecast blends the TABS models with the latest GFS-ECWMF mean and HCCA consensus aid. This puts the new forecast west of the previous prediction by a somewhat noticeable degree, showing more of a slow northwestward motion instead of northward trajectory. Abundant moisture will continue to stream northeastward away from Lorena even though it is weakening. Significant rainfall and flash flooding has already occurred over portions of Baja California Sur, and the risk of life-threatening flash flooding will continue across portions of Baja California Sur and Sonora through Friday, and southern Arizona and New Mexico through Saturday. Key Messages: 1. Heavy rainfall associated with Lorena will continue to impact Baja California Sur and Sonora Mexico through Friday. This will increase the risk of life-threatening flash floods and mudslides across northwest Mexico. 2. Moisture from Lorena will contribute to heavy rainfall concerns across Arizona and New Mexico through Saturday. Isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding are possible across Arizona into Saturday. 3. Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions will affect portions of the western coast of Baja California Sur through Friday.
