Tropical Storm John Forecast Discussion Number 12

10 months 1 week ago
Issued at 300 PM CST Wed Sep 25 2024 000 WTPZ45 KNHC 252052 TCDEP5 Tropical Storm John Discussion Number 12 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP102024 300 PM CST Wed Sep 25 2024 John is becoming more organized this afternoon. Satellite imagery has shown deep bursts of convection forming near the center with curved banding around the majority of the circulation. Subjective Dvorak from TAFB and SAB were 3.5/55 kt and 2.5/35 kt, respectively, and the initial intensity for this advisory is set to 45 kt to represent a blend of these estimates. An Air Force Hurricane Reconnaissance aircraft is en route to investigate John and gather more information about the intensity, location, and structure. The tropical-storm-force winds in the southeast quadrant have been adjusted outward significantly based on an earlier partial ASCAT pass. Little has changed in the intensity forecast reasoning. Oceanic and atmospheric conditions are conducive for further intensification, as long as the storm remains over water. SHIPS-RII, a rapid intensification indicator, shows about a 70 percent chance of rapid intensification in the next 24 hours. The official intensity forecast now shows John becoming a hurricane in 24 hours as it nears the coast of southwestern Mexico. This forecast is near the top of the guidance, closest to HCCA, but could still be conservative. John is moving with an estimated motion of 355/3 kt. The track forecast is rather uncertain. Model guidance has shifted westward, and is showing John either nearly stationary or slowly following the coastline northwestward. This motion seems to depend on the strength of the ridge to the north-northwest, which is centered over the southwestern United States. However, the current motion suggests John should move closer to the coast with the center likely to move inland on Thursday afternoon or evening, though this could occur sooner. Future adjustments to the track forecast may be necessary, and there remains a large spread in the aids. A Hurricane Warning has been issued by the government of Mexico for portions of the coast of southwestern Mexico, and interests there should closely monitor future forecasts for updates. The Tropical Storm Warning and Hurricane Watch have also been extended westward. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Tropical Storm John will bring additional very heavy rainfall to coastal portions of southwest Mexico through Friday. The additional rainfall totals will be falling across areas that have received very heavy rainfall amounts over the past few days. This heavy rainfall will likely cause significant and catastrophic life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides to the Mexican States of Guerrero, Oaxaca and Michoacan. 2. John is forecast to strengthen to a hurricane before landfall, and a Hurricane Warning has been issued for a portion of the coastline of southwestern Mexico, where tropical storm conditions could begin later today. The Tropical Storm Warning and Hurricane Watch have also been extended westward.

Tropical Storm John Forecast Discussion Number 11

10 months 1 week ago
Issued at 900 AM CST Wed Sep 25 2024 000 WTPZ45 KNHC 251456 TCDEP5 Tropical Storm John Discussion Number 11 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP102024 900 AM CST Wed Sep 25 2024 John has reformed near the southwestern coast of Mexico. The CIMSS-UW satellite vorticity analyses show remnants of vorticity, likely associated with the mid-level circulation of John, have merged with a larger source of vorticity from the monsoon trough. Convection has gradually become better organized based on geostationary infrared and visibly imagery. An AMSR2 microwave pass at 0807 UTC showed curved banding near the surface, indicating a well-defined surface center. A Dvorak classification from TAFB has given John a 2.0/35 kt and that is the initial intensity for this advisory. The environmental conditions appear conducive for John to strengthen in the next day or so, as long as the circulation stays over water. Global models show the vertical wind shear remaining weak-to-moderate, ample mid-level moisture, and very warm sea surface temperatures. Statistical guidance even suggests there is an above average possibility for strong-to-rapid intensification. The latest NHC intensity forecast shows John reaching a peak intensity of 55 kt in 24 h, which is near the HCCA intensity aid and at the top of the guidance envelope. However, there is a chance John may become a hurricane prior to landfall. The tropical storm is meandering eastward in the monsoonal flow with an estimate motion of 80/2 kt. Models indicate that John will gradually turn towards the north later today and accelerate slightly towards the coast on Thursday. Regional and global models vary the timing of landfall, with the GFS and GFS-based hurricane models showing John at the coast by tomorrow evening and the ECMWF lingering offshore until Friday. The official track forecast calls for landfall along the southern and southwestern coast of Mexico on Thursday evening, however, there is uncertainty associated with this timing. A Hurricane Watch and Tropical Storm Warning have been issued by the government of Mexico for portions of the coast of southern Mexico and interests there should closely monitor future forecasts for updates. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Tropical Storm John will bring additional very heavy rainfall to coastal portions of southwest Mexico through Friday. The additional rainfall totals will be falling across areas that have received very heavy rainfall amounts over the past few days. This heavy rainfall will likely cause significant and catastrophic, life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides to the Mexican States of Guerrero, Oaxaca, coastal Chiapas, and coastal Michoaca. 2.

Interests in southern Mexico should closely monitor the progress of
this system as it is expected to produce heavy rainfall with the
potential for flash flooding and mudslides over a large portion of
southern Mexico through this week.
