Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 1123 AM CDT Sun Aug 04 2024 Valid 041630Z - 051200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FOR A FEW TORNADOES OVER PARTS OF FLORIDA AND EXTREME SOUTHERN GEORGIA. DAMAGING WINDS MAY ALSO AFFECT PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST MONTANA THIS EVENING.... ...SUMMARY... Tropical Storm Debby may produce a few tornadoes over parts of Florida and extreme southern Georgia through early tomorrow morning as it intensifies. Scattered thunderstorms may produce damaging wind gusts across parts of Montana this evening. ...FL/South GA... Tropical Storm Debby continues to intensify off the west coast of the FL. Low-level wind fields are enlarging, resulting in strengthening shear profiles across much of peninsula. Dewpoints in the mid-upper 70s and pockets of heating, combined with deep tropical moisture, will result in scattered to widespread afternoon thunderstorms. Given the favorable wind fields, a few tornadoes are possible. ...MT/WY... Water vapor loop shows a well-defined mid-level shortwave trough moving eastward across ID. This feature and an associated mid-level speed max will cross the northern Rockies and into southern MT/northern WY this afternoon/evening. A consensus of 12z model guidance shows clusters of thunderstorms forming in this region, tracking eastward across southern MT through the evening. CAMs have a consistent signal for a more organized damaging wind threat, so have added a small SLGT to account for this scenario. ...SD/MN/IA... A strengthening low-level jet will enhance warm advection and lift over eastern SD/western MN this evening/tonight. Isolated thunderstorm development is possible in this regime, perhaps not until after midnight. This region will be beneath the southern fringe of stronger west-northwest flow aloft, and in a region of relatively steep mid-level lapse rates. Elevated storms capable of hail and perhaps gusty winds are possible. ...Northeast States... Scattered thunderstorms are expected today across much of New England and eastern NY/PA into NJ. Surface conditions are considerably cooler than recent days, which should weaken low-level lapse rates and temper the overall severe threat. Nevertheless, a few strong storms are possible - capable of gusty wind and small hail. ..Hart/Jewell.. 08/04/2024 Read more

MD 1813 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...TORNADO WATCH LIKELY FOR PORTIONS OF THE WESTERN AND CENTRAL FLORIDA PENINSULA
Mesoscale Discussion 1813 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0932 AM CDT Sun Aug 04 2024 Areas affected...portions of the western and central Florida Peninsula Concerning...Severe potential...Tornado Watch likely Valid 041432Z - 041600Z Probability of Watch Issuance...95 percent SUMMARY...Increasing diurnal heating on the outer envelope of intensifying TC Debby will likely support supercell development through much of the Day. Intensifying low-level shear may support a few tornadoes. A new Tornado Watch is likely. DISCUSSION...As of 1425 UTC, regional radar analysis placed the developing center of intensifying TC Debby approximately 105 nm west-southwest of KTBW. Latest NHC projections show continued intensification of the system west of the FL Peninsula. To the east of the main envelope of the TC, diurnal heating has commenced inland with temperatures warming into the mid 80s F. As heating continues, moderate buoyancy will likely support the development of scattered thunderstorms on the outer convergence bands. As the TC deepens, low-level wind fields should intensify through the morning and early afternoon. area VADs already show 0-1km SRH around 200-250 m2/s2 with weak mesocyclones noted within some of the stronger convective elements. As low-level shear intensifies, continued low-level updraft rotation appears probable with mini supercell structures. A few tornadoes are likely as storms intensify within the deepening buoyancy and stronger shear regime. Model guidance and observational trends suggest tornado potential is highest where the low-level flow retains the most easterly component, roughly along and north of the I-4 corridor later today. However, given the expected intensification of Debby, tornadoes will be possible across much of the western and central Peninsula as the bands move onshore and encounter stronger shear/buoyancy. Given the increasing risk for tornadoes, a Tornado Watch will likely be needed. ..Lyons/Hart.. 08/04/2024 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Tropical Storm Daniel Forecast Discussion Number 5

1 year 1 month ago
Issued at 800 AM PDT Sun Aug 04 2024 000 WTPZ44 KNHC 041435 TCDEP4 Tropical Storm Daniel Discussion Number 5 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP042024 800 AM PDT Sun Aug 04 2024 Daniel's convective structure continues to sputter along, with the coldest cloud tops organized in two regions to the northeast and southwest of the center, which appears to be mostly exposed this morning. The latest round of both subjective and objective intensity guidance has not changed much from overnight, and so the initial intensity remains 35 kt this advisory. It appears that the tropical storm is finally starting to track more north-northeastward this morning, with the estimated motion at 030/4 kt. A somewhat faster northeastward motion is expected to begin later today through Monday as Daniel's motion is influenced by the southwesterly monsoonal flow being picked up by Carlotta passing to the north. The global models still show a turn north and northwestward as Daniel gets caught in the outer periphery of Carlotta's larger circulation. The NHC track forecast is quite similar to the prior advisory, close to the multi-model consensus. While the vertical wind shear that was previously affecting Daniel is starting to subside, there is quite a bit of environmental dry air to the north of the storm, which will likely keep it in check, and only a modest amount of intensification is forecasted. After 48 h, this dry air is expected to fully envelop the circulation, choking off the remaining convection, marking the storm's transition to a post-tropical remnant low. The low is finally forecast to open up into a trough by midweek.

Tropical Storm Carlotta Forecast Discussion Number 17

1 year 1 month ago
Issued at 800 AM PDT Sun Aug 04 2024 000 WTPZ43 KNHC 041435 TCDEP3 Tropical Storm Carlotta Discussion Number 17 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP032024 800 AM PDT Sun Aug 04 2024 Carlotta's deep convection has become quite limited this morning. Subjective Dvorak and objective satellite estimates like the UW-CIMSS ADT are all decreasing, and support an initial intensity estimate of 55 kt. No changes of note were made to the NHC forecast, and further weakening should continue as Carlotta moves over SSTs that are already below 25 deg C. The SSTs will only get colder during the next couple of days as Carlotta moves along the forecast track. The tropical storm is forecast by most models to lose its remaining deep convection in about 48 h, and based on current trends this could occur even sooner. Dissipation is still expected around mid-week. The tropical storm is still moving westward to west-northwestward. This general motion should continue for the next day or two as Carlotta is steered by a deep-layer ridge centered well to its northeast. As the cyclone weakens further and becomes more vertically shallow, low-level steering will likely cause it to turn westward and slow down slightly in a couple of days.

Tropical Depression Five-E Forecast Discussion Number 1

1 year 1 month ago
Issued at 800 AM MST Sun Aug 04 2024 662 WTPZ45 KNHC 041435 TCDEP5 Tropical Depression Five-E Discussion Number 1 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP052024 800 AM MST Sun Aug 04 2024 Convection associated with a low located well offshore Mexico has steadily increased in coverage and organization since yesterday. Overnight ASCAT and first-light visible imagery indicate that the cyclone also has a well-defined, if somewhat broad, circulation. Subjective Dvorak classifications from TAFB and SAB were both 2.0 at 1200 UTC, which support initiating advisories on the system as a 30 kt depression. The depression is located within a very convectively active environment over the east Pacific, deep-layer wind shear is low, and SSTs are plenty warm, so strengthening is expected in the short term. The biggest source of uncertainty for this forecast is an expected interaction with a larger disturbance, currently Invest 96E, which is approaching from the east. Based on the available global and hurricane dynamical model forecasts, the most likely scenario is that 96E will be the dominant system. In that case, the new depression will only have a short window to strengthen before it is wrapped into and dissipates within the other circulation. Models historically handle interaction cases like this poorly, so confidence in the forecast is not high, despite the near universal agreement between the dynamical guidance on this upcoming evolution. The NHC forecast is very close to the consensus guidance through 24 to 36 h. After that, the model trackers appear to be getting fooled by the close proximity of 96E and TD Five-E and are following the stronger vortex instead. The NHC forecast is based heavily on a broad consensus of model fields beyond 36 h and shows dissipation occuring by 60 h. There is some chance that the depression could persist longer than forecast if the two systems remain farther apart, however there is not enough guidance with a trackable vortex to justify an explicit forecast beyond what is currently shown.
