Tropical Depression Celia Discussion Number 8
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP032022
1000 AM CDT Sat Jun 18 2022
After exhibiting a mostly exposed low-level swirl on overnight
satellite imagery, this morning a small but deep burst of
convection has formed just to the west of the center of Celia. Yet,
this activity does not have much organization and already appears
to be impacted by significant easterly vertical wind shear over the
system currently. Morning satellite intensity estimates from TAFB
and SAB are at 35 kt and 30 kt, with objective estimates from ADT
and SATCON at 25 kt and 36 kt respectively. The initial intensity
will remain 30 kt for this advisory.
Celia's long awaited left turn appears to be underway, with the
motion now at 290/4 kt. A building ridge to the north of Celia
should continue this westward turn in its track as the deep-layer
steering flow vector shifts out of the east. In general, a westward
motion is anticipated through the forecast period, though with a
more southward inflection over the next 48 hours, and a more
northward inflection thereafter. The new forecast track is just a
touch north of the various consensus aids (TVCE, HCCA) and is
changed little from the previous forecast.
Greater than 20 kt of easterly shear is forecast to continue
affecting Celia for at least the next 36-48 hours. For this primary
reason, the depression is expected to only maintain its intensity,
and it is quite possible the center may become stretched-out or
reform down-shear to the west where the deep-convective activity
should remain focused. After 48 hours, the easterly shear is
forecast to gradually subside, and Celia could have an opportunity
to intensify. The intensity forecast is essentially a carbon copy of
the previous one, and is in general agreement with the consensus
aids.
Key Messages:
1. Areas of heavy rainfall are expected north of Celia's track
across portions of far southern Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador
through Sunday. This rainfall may cause some instances of flash
flooding and mudslides across the region.
2. Interests along the coasts of El Salvador, Honduras, and
southeastern Mexico should continue to monitor the progress of this
system, although the chances of direct wind impacts continue to
decrease.

Tropical Storm Blas Discussion Number 18
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP022022
900 AM MDT Sat Jun 18 2022
Blas continues to weaken and is quite disorganized this morning.
Satellite images show a partially exposed low-level center
with deep convection confined to the southeastern quadrant of the
circulation. A blend of the latest Dvorak values from TAFB, SAB,
and CIMSS at the University of Wisconsin support nudging the
intensity down to 50 kt for this advisory.
The tropical storm is moving slowly west-northwestward at about 4
kt. A continued slow westward to west-northwestward motion within
the low- to mid-level flow is expected to continue through the
middle of next week. The models have trended slower this cycle,
and the NHC track forecast has been adjusted accordingly to be
positioned closer to the various consensus aids.
Although the current shear over Blas could decrease some, the storm
is headed over progressively cooler waters and moving into an
environment of increasingly stable atmospheric conditions. These
factors should continue the weakening trend, and Blas will likely
become a shallow remnant low in a couple of days. The NHC intensity
forecast is an update of the previous one, and is in line with the
majority of the guidance.
Swells associated with Blas are still causing dangerous surf and rip
currents along the coasts of southwestern Mexico and the southern
part of the Baja California peninsula. These conditions should
subside tonight.

Tropical Storm Celia Discussion Number 4
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP032022
1000 AM CDT Fri Jun 17 2022
The satellite presentation of the system has improved somewhat this
morning, with a well-defined band in its western semicircle and
some deep convection persisting near and just west of the
estimated center. Subjective intensity estimates are up to 35 kt
from SAB and 45 kt from TAFB, while the most recent objective
intensity estimates from UW-CIMSS were in the 40-45 kt range. There
were also a few wind retrievals from overnight scatterometer
imagery in the 34-36 kt range. The initial intensity has been set to
a possibly conservative 35 kt for this advisory, upgrading Tropical
Depression Three-E to Tropical Storm Celia.
Celia still appears to be drifting generally northward, with the
initial motion estimated at 020/4 kt. As discussed in the prior
advisory, the storm is currently embedded within weak steering
currents as a result of being a small vortex embedded within a much
broader low-level cyclonic circulation centered over Central
America, causing Celia to drift just east of due north over the past
12-18 hours. Possibly due to this small size, the model guidance
does not have a good handle on the current position or structure of
the cyclone. For example, the latest GFS run places Celia about 150
nm west of its actual position. The latest ECMWF run was closer to
the correct position but barely depicts Celia as a distinct entity
within the larger gyre circulation. Even the higher-resolution
regional hurricane models are struggling to depict this cyclone.
Given these difficulties, the short-term track forecast is quite
problematic, with the track guidance spread more than double the
typical climatological value in the 24-48 hour period. Generally the
guidance has shifted further south this cycle, when Celia is
expected to be steered by a building mid-level ridge and perhaps
some low-level flow enhanced by a gap wind event in the Gulf of
Tehuantepec. The track forecast this advisory follows suit, and is
further south than the previous advisory after 36 hours, but still
is not as far south as the reliable consensus aids. Given all the
complicating factors above, this track forecast is of low
confidence.
The substantial uncertainty in the track forecast also applies to
the current intensity forecast with Celia. Easterly vertical wind
shear is already starting to increase over the system, as suggested
by both GFS- and ECMWF- based SHIPS guidance, and is forecast to be
above 20 kt in 24-36 hours. The GFS model, which seems to be best
capturing Celia's current structure, quickly shears off the current
deep convection to the east due to the increasing upper-level flow.
In addition, current sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) under the
cyclone are already marginal (26-27 C) and could cool further over
the next 36 hours given Celia's slow motion. The intensity guidance
this cycle is lower than the previous one for the first 48-72 hours,
and only some slight additional intensification is anticipated
before these negative factors limit Celia's intensity. Towards the
end of the forecast period, the shear is expected to decrease and
SSTs warm, which could provide an opportunity for the storm to began
intensifying again. However, it is also possible the negative
factors indicated above may result in Celia weakening or
degenerating into a remnant low, devoid of organized convection, as
suggested by the ECMWF solution.
Key Messages:
1. Areas of heavy rainfall are expected north of Celia's track
across portions of far southern Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador
through Sunday. This rainfall may cause some instances of flash
flooding and mudslides across the region.
2. Interests along the coasts of El Salvador, Honduras, and
southeastern Mexico should monitor the progress of this system.
While Celia is expected to stay offshore, any motion to the north of
the current forecast track, or increase in size could require a
tropical storm watch or warning for part of this area.

Hurricane Blas Discussion Number 14
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP022022
900 AM MDT Fri Jun 17 2022
Blas has become a little better organized this morning. Microwave
data from overnight showed an eye feature and numerous curved
bands, especially south of the center. Since then, deep convection
has been increasing and has become a bit more symmetric around the
center. The latest Dvorak estimates range from 77 to 90 kt, and
the initial intensity is nudged up to 80 kt based on that data.
The hurricane continues to move west-northwestward, or 295 degrees,
at 12 kt. Blas is being steered by a strong mid-level ridge
centered over the south-central U.S. The hurricane is expected to
slow down on Saturday and turn westward on Sunday as the system
weakens and becomes increasingly steered by the lighter low-level
flow. This slow westward motion is forecast to continue through the
middle of next week. The NHC track forecast is nudged to the north
of the previous one to be in better agreement with the latest
consensus aids.
Blas is currently in favorable conditions for strengthening, but
that is not expected to last much longer. The hurricane should
cross the 26 degree C isotherm later today and move over
progressively cooler waters during the next several days. In
addition, Blas will be moving into an environment of increasingly
more stable and dry air. These conditions should promote a steady
weakening trend, and Blas will likely become a shallow post-tropical
system in a few days. The NHC intensity is forecast is a touch
higher than the previous one, due to the slightly stronger initial
intensity.
While Blas is moving farther away from the coast of Mexico, its
associated swells are expected to continue to affect portions of the
coast of southwestern Mexico for another day or so. These swells
are expected to spread to parts of the southern Baja California
peninsula later today and continue through the weekend. These
conditions are likely to cause dangerous surf and rip currents in
those areas.
