Tropical Depression Sean Forecast Discussion Number 17

Issued at 1100 PM AST Sat Oct 14 2023 000 WTNT44 KNHC 150231 TCDAT4 Tropical Depression Sean Discussion Number 17 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL192023 1100 PM AST Sat Oct 14 2023 Deep convection continues to burst near Sean's center, and as a result, Dvorak estimates from TAFB and SAB remain T2.0/30 kt. In addition, a recent ASCAT-B pass showed winds a little over 25 kt, and all these estimates support maintaining Sean as a 30-kt tropical depression. With relatively low vertical shear, warm sea surface temperatures of 28-29 degrees Celsius, and an unstable atmosphere, the environment is just conducive enough for additional bursts of convection. The biggest limiting factor is a lack of mid-level moisture, with relative humidities running about 50 percent. Consequently, the convection is likely to become less persistent and less organized, and global models indicate that Sean's small circulation should open up into a trough over the next day or two. The NHC forecast shows Sean degenerating into a remnant low in 24 hours and then dissipating by 48 hours, but it's also possible that the system remains a tropical depression right up until it opens up into a trough. Sean continues to move northwestward, or 305/7 kt. As it becomes a weaker system, the depression is expected to become increasingly steered by lower-level ridging. As a result, Sean is expected to turn west-northwestward overnight and then westward by early Monday, just before or as it degenerates into a trough. The NHC track forecast is very close to the previous prediction and the latest TVCA multi-model consensus.

SPC 0100Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0724 PM CDT Sat Oct 14 2023 Valid 150100Z - 151200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... Severe weather threat has ended over the eastern North Carolina vicinty. Severe storms are not expected across the U.S. through the remainder of the period. ...Discussion... A surface low now in the vicinity of southern portions of the Chesapeake Bay will move offshore this evening, as mid-level short-wave troughing continues to move eastward across the central Appalachians. Earlier warm-sector convection over far eastern North Carolina and the Outer Banks has moved offshore, and with it, any potential for stronger storms. As such, MRGL risk is being removed from the outlook at this time. A few lightning strikes will remain possible, however, across portions of the Mid-Atlantic region through this evening. Elsewhere, a few thunderstorms may persist this evening over South Florida, while lightning is not expected across the remainder of the CONUS through 15/12Z. ..Goss.. 10/15/2023 Read more

* Formation chance through 7 days...high...80 percent.

South of Guatemala and El Salvador:
An area of low pressure is expected to form south of the coasts of
Guatemala and El Salvador by the middle of next week. Gradual
development of the disturbance will be possible after that while the
system meanders over the far eastern portion of the eastern North
Pacific basin.

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Depression Sean, located over the central tropical Atlantic.

Eastern Tropical Atlantic (AL94):
Showers and thunderstorms associated with an area of low pressure
located several hundred miles southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands
have become less organized since this morning. However,
environmental conditions are forecast to become more conducive for
development, and a tropical depression or tropical storm is likely
to form within the next couple of days while the system moves
westward or west-northwestward across the central and western
tropical Atlantic. Additional information on this system, including
gale warnings, can be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the
National Weather Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...70 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook

SPC Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook
Day 3-8 Fire Weather Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0458 PM CDT Sat Oct 14 2023 Valid 161200Z - 221200Z The beginning of the extended forecast period will feature a large high pressure center across the Plains. A mid-level shortwave trough over the Pacific Northwest on Monday will traverse the top of the ridge across the northern Rockies and amplify as it moves southeast into the eastern CONUS. As this occurs, an area of surface low-pressure will develop across the Plains and eventually move into the eastern CONUS. Breezy conditions will accompany this surface low, but relatively cool temperatures should keep relative humidity somewhat higher. Fuels remain moist across much of the CONUS, particularly where the dry and breezy conditions will be present. Therefore, fire weather concerns should remain minimal for the extended period. ..Bentley.. 10/14/2023 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov/fire for graphic product... Read more

Tropical Storm Sean Forecast Discussion Number 13

1 year 9 months ago
Issued at 1100 PM AST Fri Oct 13 2023 000 WTNT44 KNHC 140238 TCDAT4 Tropical Storm Sean Discussion Number 13 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL192023 1100 PM AST Fri Oct 13 2023 Sean is still showing signs of life with a recent burst of convection in the northeast quadrant obscuring the surface circulation. Unfortunately, no new satellite surface wind data is available this evening. Objective and subjective Dvorak estimates range between 25-45 kt. The initial intensity is held at a possibly generous 35 kt, which is closest to the TAFB final T-number of T2.5. The storm has noticeably slowed since the last advisory, with an estimated motion of 290/7 kt. The model guidance continues to insist Sean will turn northwestward on the southwest side of a weak ridge over the eastern Atlantic. However, this has yet to occur. As the cyclone weakens and becomes more shallow, it is expected to bend back to west-northwest. Once again, the latest NHC track forecast was shifted south of the previous prediction, and favors the southern side of the guidance envelope due to the recent northward bias of the models. There have been no changes to the official intensity forecast. Sean is expected to continue to weaken in the relatively hostile atmospheric conditions and become a remnant low later this weekend. Most model guidance shows the storm opening into a trough early next week, and the NHC forecast shows dissipation on Monday.
