Hurricane Gilma Forecast Discussion Number 29

1 year ago
Issued at 1100 PM HST Sat Aug 24 2024 000 WTPZ42 KNHC 250832 TCDEP2 Hurricane Gilma Discussion Number 29 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP072024 1100 PM HST Sat Aug 24 2024 After a brief period of rapid strengthening earlier this evening, Gilma's intensity has leveled off. Conventional GOES-18 satellite imagery shows that the deep inner core convection has eroded considerably in the western half of the cyclone. The initial intensity is set at 115 kt and is based on a blend of the subjective Dvorak intensity estimates and various UW-CIMSS objective techniques. Although the current intensity is higher than noted in the previous advisory, Gilma likely peaked a few hours ago based on earlier ADT intensity estimates of 115-119 kt and the 0000 UTC constrained Data-T 6.5 subjective estimates from both TAFB and SAB. Although Gilma's period of rapid intensification has likely ended, some intensity fluctuations, common in major hurricanes, are possible in the short term, and the official forecast indicates little intensity change through Sunday. Afterward, the cyclone is expected to traverse cooler oceanic surface temperatures and move into a thermodynamically inhibiting dry and stable marine layer by the middle-part of the forecast. Early next week, the statistical SHIPS intensity guidance shows an increase in west-southwesterly shear spreading east of the Big Island of Hawaii. These negative intensity contributions should result in a weakening trend through the remainder of the forecast period. The NHC intensity forecast has been nudged upward slightly from the previous one and is based on a blend of the Decay SHIPS statistical aid and the IVCN consensus model. Gilma's initial motion is estimated to be west-northwestward, or 285/8 kt. A strengthening mid-troposphere subtropical ridge situated to the north of the hurricane should steer Gilma on a generally west-northwest or west track through day 5. The official track forecast is a little bit slower than the previous advisory beyond day 3 and is a compromise of the HCCA and TVCE consensus guidance. Gilma's wind radii have been adjusted based on a 0530 UTC METOP-B ASCAT overpass.

SUMMARY OF 1100 PM HST...0900 UTC...INFORMATION ----------------------------------------------- LOCATION...18.0N 132.5W ABOUT 1500 MI...2410 KM W OF THE SOUTHERN TIP OF BAJA CALIFORNIA ABOUT 1480 MI...2380 KM E OF HILO HAWAII MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...130 MPH...215 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...WNW OR 285 DEGREES AT 9 MPH...15 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...949 MB...28.03 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 PM HST (0900 UTC), the center of Hurricane Gilma was located near latitude 18.0 North, longitude 132.5 West. Gilma is moving toward the west-northwest near 9 mph (15 km/h). A west-northwestward or westward motion at a slightly faster forward speed is expected during the next several days. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 130 mph (215 km/h) with higher gusts. Gilma is a category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Some intensity fluctuations are possible through Sunday. Afterward, gradual weakening is expected although Gilma should remain a hurricane through early next week. Steady weakening is forecast to continue through the end of next week. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 25 miles (35 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 125 miles (205 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 949 mb (28.03 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- None NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 500 AM HST. $$ Forecaster Roberts

SPC 0730Z Day 3 Outlook
Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0227 AM CDT Sun Aug 25 2024 Valid 271200Z - 281200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF THE GREAT LAKES REGION... ...SUMMARY... Severe-weather potential is evident across the Great Lakes region on Tuesday. ...Synopsis... While upper ridging/weak flow aloft prevails across most of the southern 2/3 of the country, an active northern stream will persist Tuesday. Within this stream, and upper trough will continue moving eastward across western Canada and the northwest CONUS. Meanwhile, a weaker/lower amplitude downstream trough will nonetheless be the more substantial feature with respect to convective/severe potential. This trough, initially over the north-central U.S., is forecast to shift eastward across the Upper Great Lakes and southern Ontario through Wednesday morning. At the surface, low pressure initially near the Upper Mississippi Valley will accompany the eastward advance of the upper system, moving eastward across the Great Lakes region through the period. ...Great Lakes region... Thunderstorms -- and accompanying risk for large hail and damaging winds -- are expected to be ongoing across parts of the Upper Mississippi Valley/western Upper Great Lakes region at the start of the period, in advance of the eastward-moving upper disturbance. Questions regarding initial location, and speed of advance, of this convection cast substantial uncertainties with respect to evolution of the severe threat into Tuesday afternoon and beyond. Still, as the upper system and associated surface low track eastward across the Great Lakes, and a moist boundary layer heats/strongly destabilizes through the afternoon in areas away from ongoing convection/clouds, severe threat should persist/shift eastward with time. With a belt of moderately strong deep-layer westerlies shifting across the Great Lakes in tandem with the upper system, potential for organized, rather fast-moving storms is indicated. While capping may limit convective coverage with southward extent, Wisconsin and Michigan appear likely to be the centroid of the risk. As storms spread eastward through the evening and into the overnight hours, the eastern extent of the risk is difficult to delineate at this time. At least some risk may reach as far east as the Lake Ontario/Finger Lakes region of New York and adjacent north-central Pennsylvania. ..Goss.. 08/25/2024 Read more
