Tropical Depression Thirteen-E Discussion Number 2
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP132024
800 PM PDT Fri Nov 01 2024
The depression has changed little in organization during the past
several hours, with visible and microwave satellite imagery showing
a cluster of convection near or a little east of the low-level
center. Satellite intensity estimates have changed little since the
last advisory, and thus the initial intensity remains 30 kt.
The initial motion remains 270/6 kt. The depression is expected to
continue moving generally westward during its lifetime as it is
steered by a broad mid-level ridge to the north. The latest track
guidance is similar to, but a little slower than, the earlier
guidance. Based on the latest aids, the new forecast track is also a
little slower, in the middle of the track guidance envelope.
The depression is currently in an environment of light shear and
over relatively warm water, and this should persist through 48 h.
While this environment seems favorable, the regional-hurricane
models and the global models show little strengthening during this
time. The intensity forecast follows these models and therefore
calls for little change in strength. However, any strengthening
would bring the system to tropical-storm strength, and the
statistical-dynamical models do forecast some intensification.
After 48 h, increasing shear is expected to cause this small system
to degenerate to a remnant low pressure area. A 72-h point as a
remnant low was added based on the global model guidance.

Hurricane Kristy Discussion Number 20
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP122024
800 AM PDT Sat Oct 26 2024
Kristy is rapidly weakening. Satellite images show the center of
the hurricane on the southern edge of the central dense overcast,
with the southern part of the circulation exposed due to strong
shear. The current intensity is set to 65 kt, consistent with
the latest estimates. Further rapid weakening is anticipated due
to a continuation of strong shear and Kristy moving over cooler
waters. The new intensity forecast is reduced from the previous
one, similar to the intensity consensus aids. Kristy should
become post-tropical without any organized convection in about 24 h.
The hurricane continues to move northwestward at about 12 kt
this morning. This general motion is expected until late today
when the mid-level circulation of the cyclone becomes decoupled
with the low-level center. Kristy should then turn westward on
Sunday and southwestward late that day as a remnant low. Very
little change was made to the previous forecast, which remains
steady in showing this course.
