Tropical Storm Narda Forecast Discussion Number 6

3 days 6 hours ago
Issued at 900 PM CST Mon Sep 22 2025 000 WTPZ44 KNHC 230243 TCDEP4 Tropical Storm Narda Discussion Number 6 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP142025 900 PM CST Mon Sep 22 2025 The satellite presentation of Narda has continued to improve since the previous advisory, with deep convection featuring cloud tops colder than -80C bursting over the low-level center. A recent 0034 UTC WSFM microwave image confirms the improved organization, showing Narda beginning to develop an inner-core structure. Subjective Dvorak estimates from TAFB and SAB were both 3.5/55 kt, while objective estimates from UW-CIMSS ranged from 44 to 60 kt. A blend of these data, along with the improved satellite appearance, supports raising the initial intensity to 55 kt for this advisory. Narda is moving due west, or 270 degrees, at 11 kt. This motion is expected to continue for the next several days as the cyclone is steered by a strengthening subtropical ridge to its north and northwest. By late in the period, a mid-level low over southern California is forecast to erode the eastern portion of the ridge, causing the cyclone to slow down and turn northwestward around day 5. The official forecast track has been adjusted slightly south of the previous prediction during the next couple of days to account for the westward motion that has now begun, but it remains very close to the prior forecast from day 3 onward. The track forecast follows a blend of the HCCA, TVCE, and FSSE consensus aids, as well as the Google DeepMind/NOAA Eagle AI guidance. Narda will remain embedded within a moist air mass, over very warm waters, and in an environment of light to moderate easterly shear during the next couple of days. These factors should support steady strengthening. The latest GFS- and ECMWF-based SHIPS guidance indicates about a 50 percent probability of a 25-kt increase within 24 hours, and the intensity forecast reflects this. Narda is expected to become a hurricane later tonight or early Tuesday and could approach major hurricane status within a couple of days. By late in the forecast period, however, Narda will move into an environment with mid-level humidity below 50 percent and over waters cooler than 26C, which should result in steady to rapid weakening by day 5. The official intensity forecast remains near the upper end of the guidance envelope and is most closely aligned with the SHIPS and HCCA aids.

MD 2119 CONCERNING SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE FOR CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS
Mesoscale Discussion 2119 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0718 PM CDT Mon Sep 22 2025 Areas affected...Central High Plains Concerning...Severe potential...Watch possible Valid 230018Z - 230215Z Probability of Watch Issuance...60 percent SUMMARY...Convection is expected to increase across western Kansas into the Oklahoma Panhandle later this evening. Hail and wind are possible with this activity and a watch is being considered, though timing is uncertain. DISCUSSION...Midlevel heights are being suppressed across the southern Rockies this evening with an apparent vort over northern NM, ejecting east-northeast toward the High Plains. Latest radar imagery supports this with a substantial amount of weak convection arcing from northeast NM to northern Otero County NM. A secondary short wave is digging southeast across eastern UT, and this feature will advance into western CO late this evening. Net result will be a responsive LLJ that should increase across the eastern TX Panhandle into southwestern KS. Southeasterly boundary-layer flow is currently noted across the eastern TX Panhandle into eastern CO. This is contributing to a corridor of higher instability extending across the High Plains. 00z soundings from DDC and AMA exhibit very steep midlevel lapse rates, and large-scale ascent/moistening at midlevels is contributing to the aforementioned arcing band of convection. Latest thinking is sustained low-level warm advection will eventually aid robust thunderstorm development across western KS. This activity should propagate southeast, encouraged by the increasing LLJ. Hail and wind are the primary concerns and a watch is being considered. ..Darrow/Kerr.. 09/23/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... ATTN...WFO...OUN...DDC...GLD...AMA...

Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0751 PM CDT Mon Sep 22 2025 Valid 230100Z - 231200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS AS WELL AS THE UPPER MIDWEST... ...SUMMARY... Scattered severe thunderstorms will be possible tonight across portions of the southern/central Plains, lower/mid Missouri Valley, and Ohio Valley. Large to very large hail and severe/damaging winds should be the main threats. ...Southern and central Plains... Evening water vapor imagery shows a convectively augmented mid-level vort max ahead of a broad upper trough over the Rockies, moving into the southern/central High Plains. Ascent from this features is forecast to intensify this evening aiding in the development of 30-40 kt southerly low-level jet. Persistent southeasterly flow should continue transporting mid 60s to low 70s F dewpoints into parts of the central and southern Plains tonight. The intensification of the low-level jet this evening and associated moist advection will allow scattered to numerous storms to develop within a moderate unstable environment after 03z. 35-50 kt of deep-layer shear will favor a mix of organized multicells and supercells. Large to very large hail is a possibility with initial, likely elevated, supercells into the early overnight. Increasing ascent and the low-level jet should favor upscale growth into a cluster or MCS over portions of KS/OK tonight. Severe gusts will likely become the primary hazard. A couple of tornadoes are also possible given large low-level hodographs and some potential for supercells or embedded mesovorticies. These storms should continue eastward toward the KS/MO/OK border by 12z tomorrow. ...Missouri Valley and Upper Midwest... Broad and weak low-level warm advection is expected to strengthen this evening near an east-west front draped over portions of the mid Missouri Valley and Midwest. Convection currently developing along and south of the front should continue to increase in coverage and intensity tonight aided by weak ascent from several shortwave perturbations passing overhead. Moderate buoyancy, steep mid-level laps rates and some veering with height could support organized multicells or a few supercell structures capable of hail and damaging gusts. Some upscale growth is expected tonight with one or more clusters persisting across the Missouri Valley and into the central Plains. Isolated hail and damaging gusts are possible. ...Ohio and Tennessee Valleys... Several lines/clusters of strong to occasional severe storms are ongoing this evening and expected to persist into early tonight. Aided by ascent from a broad shortwave trough modestly enhanced southwesterly low/mid-level winds will persist, supporting the loosely organized multicell clusters. Instability is forecast to gradually wane with the loss of diurnal heating, though a moist boundary layer should support occasional damaging gusts through this evening with the stronger clusters. ..Lyons.. 09/23/2025 Read more

Evening water vapor imagery shows a convectively augmented mid-level vort max ahead of a broad upper trough over the Rockies, moving into the southern/central High Plains. Ascent from this features is forecast to intensify this evening aiding in the development of 30-40 kt southerly low-level jet. Persistent southeasterly flow should continue transporting mid 60s to low 70s F dewpoints into parts of the central and southern Plains tonight. The intensification of the low-level jet this evening and associated moist advection will allow scattered to numerous storms to develop within a moderate unstable environment after 03z. 35-50 kt of deep-layer shear will favor a mix of organized multicells and supercells. Large to very large hail is a possibility with initial, likely elevated, supercells into the early overnight. Increasing ascent and the low-level jet should favor upscale growth into a cluster or MCS over portions of KS/OK tonight. Severe gusts will likely become the primary hazard. A couple of tornadoes are also possible given large low-level hodographs and some potential for supercells or embedded mesovorticies. These storms should continue eastward toward the KS/MO/OK border by 12z tomorrow. ...Missouri Valley and Upper Midwest... Broad and weak low-level warm advection is expected to strengthen this evening near an east-west front draped over portions of the mid Missouri Valley and Midwest. Convection currently developing along and south of the front should continue to increase in coverage and intensity tonight aided by weak ascent from several shortwave perturbations passing overhead. Moderate buoyancy, steep mid-level laps rates and some veering with height could support organized multicells or a few supercell structures capable of hail and damaging gusts. Some upscale growth is expected tonight with one or more clusters persisting across the Missouri Valley and into the central Plains. Isolated hail and damaging gusts are possible. ...Ohio and Tennessee Valleys... Several lines/clusters of strong to occasional severe storms are ongoing this evening and expected to persist into early tonight. Aided by ascent from a broad shortwave trough modestly enhanced southwesterly low/mid-level winds will persist, supporting the loosely organized multicell clusters. Instability is forecast to gradually wane with the loss of diurnal heating, though a moist boundary layer should support occasional damaging gusts through this evening with the stronger clusters. ..Lyons.. 09/23/2025 Read more
