Tropical Storm Georgette Forecast Discussion Number 9

3 years 1 month ago
Issued at 800 AM PDT Fri Jul 29 2022 715 WTPZ43 KNHC 291438 TCDEP3 Tropical Storm Georgette Discussion Number 9 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP082022 800 AM PDT Fri Jul 29 2022 GOES-17 Proxy-Vis and enhanced IR imagery show that Georgette's cloud pattern has become more symmetric with colder -77C inner core cloud tops. An earlier AMSR2 revealed an eye-like feature in the lower frequency band and a well-developed rain band in the north part of the cyclone. The eye feature, however, was not evident in the infrared presentation. Although the Dvorak subjective T-numbers from TAFB and SAB haven't changed; the initial intensity is increased to 50 kt in deference to the microwave image. The global models and the statistical intensity guidance indicate that the easterly shear will increase within 24 hours, causing Georgette to weaken slowly. However, due to Georgette's compact size, intensity fluctuations are possible in the short term. The latest GFS run shows that Georgette could hang on a little longer than the NHC forecast indicates, possibly as a post-tropical cyclone. Therefore, adjusting the forecast may be deemed necessary to extend the cyclone's life in subsequent advisories. The official forecast is very close to the HCCA and IVCN intensity aids. Georgette's initial motion is estimated to be just a bit south of due west or 260/11 kt. A mid-tropospheric ridge stretching east-northeast to west-southwest should steer the small cyclone west to west-southwestward during the next 48 hours. Afterward, a reduction in forward speed along with a turn toward the northeast is expected in response to larger Frank weakening the ridge and disrupting the steering flow while passing to the northeast of Georgette. Although the ECMWF global has been the best performer in the eastern Pacific this season with respect to forecast track, the model continues to initialize poorly the compact TC indicating a significantly weaker system while remaining the left tracker outlier. The GFS, however, now has a more accurate depiction of the cyclone's size and vertical depth and shows a more direct response to Frank's larger wind field. There still is quite a bit of uncertainty in Georgette's future track as evident by the larger than usual guidance spread, particularly after the northeast turn. Consequently, this is a low confidence forecast. The NHC forecast is similar to the previous advisory through 48 hours, but has been adjusted to the left beyond that point to agree more with the HCCA and GEFS/EPS ensemble member solutions.

Tropical Storm Frank Forecast Discussion Number 14

3 years 1 month ago
Issued at 900 AM MDT Fri Jul 29 2022 000 WTPZ42 KNHC 291437 TCDEP2 Tropical Storm Frank Discussion Number 14 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP072022 900 AM MDT Fri Jul 29 2022 In infrared imagery, Frank's appearance has not changed much since the last advisory. While the system shows a large curved convective band that wraps a little more than three-quarters of the way around the center, the central deep convection is a bit ragged, possibly due to dry air entrainment from the northwest. However, recent 37 GHz microwave data shows the cyclone has developed a good low-level structure, with a ring of shallow to moderate convection surrounding a 40 n mi wide developing eye. Satellite intensity estimates have changed little since the previous advisory, so the initial intensity remains 55 kt. Frank will be in an environment of light vertical shear and over sea surface temperatures of 28-29C for the next 36 h, and the inner-core structure seen in the microwave imagery favors a faster rate of strengthening. The one current negative factor is the dry air entrainment that is causing the inner core deep convection to sputter. The intensity forecast assumes strengthening will resume as the deep convection will becomes persistent, and it follows the trend of the intensity guidance in calling for a peak intensity of 90 kt in 36 h. After that time, Frank should move over progressively cooler SSTs, with the system reaching 21C water by 120 h. This should cause steady to rapid weakening, and Frank is forecast to become a remnant low by the end of the forecast period. The initial motion is now 300/10 kt. Frank is moving along the southwest side of the subtropical ridge over northwestern Mexico, and it should move generally northwestward during the forecast period toward a developing break in the ridge west of California. The track guidance is in good agreement with this scenario and has changed little since the previous advisory. Thus, the new forecast track is an update of the previous forecast. It again should be noted that Frank and Tropical Storm Georgette are expected to come close enough to one another for some interaction. Frank will be the larger and dominant system during this interaction, and Georgette will have little impact on the track or intensity of Frank.

Tropical Storm Georgette Forecast Discussion Number 5

3 years 1 month ago
Issued at 800 AM PDT Thu Jul 28 2022 000 WTPZ43 KNHC 281538 CCA TCDEP3 Tropical Storm Georgette Discussion Number 5...Corrected NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP082022 800 AM PDT Thu Jul 28 2022 Corrected typo in first paragraph Georgette's structure on conventional satellite imagery remains distinct this morning, with a small yet intense central dense overcast with cloud tops as cold at -80 C near where the center is estimated currently. The 1 minute GOES-17 data, in combination with some cyclonically rotating GLM flashes, has been helpful in determining the center location on first-light visible, which appears more embedded in the convection than previously expected. A 1234 UTC SSMIS microwave pass also hints at this more embedded structure. The initial intensity remains 45-kt in closest agreement with the 1200 UTC Dvorak estimate from TAFB. Georgette's center may have relocated a bit closer to the convection this morning, but the current motion is still estimated at south of due west at 260/9 kt. As previously discussed, a northeast to southwest-oriented ridge should continue to steer Georgette west-southwestward or southwestward for the next 12-24 hours, and the guidance is in decent agreement of the track during this time frame. However, after 24 hours, the track forecast becomes highly problematic as the larger circulation of Frank approaches from the east. The majority of the deterministic track aids respond to Frank by quickly absorbing Georgette into its larger circulation, with the trackers quickly shifting to the center of Frank between the 36-60 hour forecast. However, this apparent absorption solution is not a done deal, and there is a non-negligible number of European ensemble members that keep Georgette a distinct feature beyond the next 2-3 days. In addition, it is primarily the stronger and rightward ensemble track members that have this solution, and Georgette is already stronger and right-of-track compared to much of the deterministic guidance this morning. For these reasons, the latest track forecast was nudged further west compared to the previous one, attempting to the account for the possibility that the stronger-rightward ECMWF ensemble members could verify, and now shows dissipation at 120 hours, which is a little later than the previous forecast. Needless to say though, the track forecast has higher-than-normal uncertainty due to the difficulty in forecasting these binary TC interactions. Intensity-wise, Georgette still could intensify a bit more today in a moderate easterly shear environment while over 28-29 C sea-surface temperatures. However, mid-level relative humidity diagnosed by SHIPS guidance remains quite low, and the shear could still import dry air into Georgette's tiny core and disrupt its current convective structure. After today, the majority of the guidance either maintains or weakens the tropical storm, and the latest intensity forecast will continue to show a steady state 50-kt tropical storm from 24-48 hours. Assuming Frank does get close to Georgette, its easterly upper-level outflow and westerly low-level inflow could further increase the shear after 48 hours, and gradual weakening is shown after that time. At 120 hours, Georgette is forecast to open up into a trough as Frank either absorbs it or passes by to its north. The NHC intensity forecast is in closest agreement to the latest LGEM guidance.
