Hurricane Gilma Forecast Discussion Number 27

11 months 1 week ago
Issued at 200 PM HST Sat Aug 24 2024 525 WTPZ42 KNHC 250001 TCDEP2 Hurricane Gilma Special Discussion Number 27 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP072024 200 PM HST Sat Aug 24 2024 Gilma has continued to exhibit a solid inner core on infrared imagery this afternoon. The eye has become more defined on visible satellite imagery and has started to clear out. Recent microwave imagery further confirmed that the structure of Gilma has improved with a vertically aligned center and a well-established eye wall. Satellite intensity estimates have continued to rise with objective estimates now between 100-110 kt. Thus, the initial intensity is set to 105 kt for this special advisory, and Gilma has regained major hurricane strength as a Category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson wind scale. The initial motion remains 275/8 kt. A mid-level ridge is forecast to gradually build to the north of Gilma during the next several days, and this should steer the cyclone on a generally westward, or just north of westward, track through the forecast period. The NHC track has not changed with this special advisory forecast. The intensity forecast has had some significant changes compared to the previous advisory in the short term, given the initial intensity being increased, and the new NHC forecast calls for some additional strengthening in the near term. Beyond 12 h gradual then steady weakening is forecast to occur as Gilma moves over cooler sea surface temperatures and into a drier more stable airmass. The system is still forecast to become a remnant low in 120 h.

Hurricane Gilma Forecast Discussion Number 26

11 months 1 week ago
Issued at 1100 AM HST Sat Aug 24 2024 000 WTPZ42 KNHC 242036 TCDEP2 Hurricane Gilma Discussion Number 26 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP072024 1100 AM HST Sat Aug 24 2024 Gilma has become better organized during the past few hours, with the eye becoming more distinct and the eyewall convection becoming colder and more symmetric. In response, the various satellite intensity estimates have increased to the 90-105 kt range. Based on that, the initial intensity is increased to 95 kt, and this might be conservative. This intensification could be due to the center passing near a tongue of warmer sea surface temperatures. The initial motion remains 275/8 kt. A mid-level ridge is forecast to gradually build to the north of Gilma during the next several days, and this should steer the cyclone on a generally westward, or just north of westward, track through the forecast period. The track guidance has changed little since the last advisory, and while there is some spread in the forward speed it is tightly clustered in direction. The new forecast track therefore has little change from the previous forecast. In contrast to the track forecast, the intensity forecast and guidance have significant changes. First, it is uncertain how long the current re-intensification will last. The bulk of the intensity guidance shows little additional strengthening, but given that the organization is still increasing some additional strengthening is possible in the next 6-12 h. Second, there have been some changes to the guidance in the 3-5 day period. The regional hurricane models are forecasting lower intensities than they did 6 h ago, with only the HAFS-A still keeping Gilma a tropical storm at 120 h. On the other hand, simulated satellite imagery from the GFS/ECMWF suggests that the cyclone will continue to develop organized convection for a longer time than the previous model runs were forecasting. Putting all of these changes together, the new intensity forecast calls for a stronger Gilma during the first 60 h, and now calls for the cyclone to retain tropical storm status through 96 h. By 120 h, westerly shear and dry air entrainment should cause the system to degenerate to a remnant low pressure area.

Hurricane Gilma Forecast Discussion Number 25

11 months 1 week ago
Issued at 500 AM HST Sat Aug 24 2024 000 WTPZ42 KNHC 241431 TCDEP2 Hurricane Gilma Discussion Number 25 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP072024 500 AM HST Sat Aug 24 2024 Gilma continues to show a well-defined, but somewhat asymmetric, central dense overcast in satellite imagery. AMSR microwave data near 1000 UTC showed an eye and eyewall are still present under the overcast, and the eye makes occasional attempts to appear in infrared imagery. The various subjective and objective intensity estimates currently have a wide range from 65-90 kt. However, the overall trend of these estimates is down, and based on this the initial intensity is reduced to a somewhat uncertain 80 kt. The initial motion is 275/8 kt. A mid-level ridge is forecast to gradually build to the north of Gilma during the next several days, and this should steer the cyclone on a generally westward, or just north of westward, track through the forecast period. The guidance has shifted south since the last advisory, continuing a trend that started yesterday. Based on this guidance, the new forecast track is also adjusted a little south of the previous track. Gilma is expected to remain over sea surface temperatures (SSTs) near 26C for the next day or two, and since it is in a light shear environment, only slow weakening is expected during this time. After that time, increasing westerly shear and dry air entrainment is likely to lead to significant weakening, even though the SSTs along the forecast track remain near 25-26C. While this is the most likely scenario, some differences have developed in the intensity guidance. The global models and the HMON regional model generally show Gilma degenerating to a post tropical cyclone by 96 h and to a remnant low by 120 h. On the other hand, the latest HWRF, HAFS-A, and HAFS-B runs show the cyclone remaining a convection producing tropical storm through the end of the forecast period. Given the forecast shear and dry air, these forecasts look too strong, and the new intensity forecast will follow the global model solutions of a faster decay.
