Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
500 AM PDT Wed Aug 27 2025

For the eastern and central North Pacific east of 180 longitude:

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Juliette, located in the eastern Pacific basin several hundred
miles west of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.

Well South of the Hawaiian Islands:
An area of low pressure located several hundred miles south of the
Hawaiian Islands continues to produce disorganized showers and
thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear conducive for some
slow development of this system over the next few days, while it
moves westward at 10 to 15 mph across the central Pacific basin.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...20 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.

Well Southwest of the Baja California Peninsula:
A tropical wave located a few hundred miles south of the coast of
southwestern Mexico continues to produce a large area of
disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions
appear favorable for gradual development of this system toward the
end of the week, and a tropical depression could form over the
weekend while the system moves westward to west-northwestward at 10
to 15 mph across the central to western part of the eastern Pacific
basin.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.

South of Southern Mexico:
Another area of low pressure could form this weekend offshore of the
coast of southern Mexico. Environmental conditions appear conducive
for some gradual development of this system into early next week
while it moves generally west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...30 percent.

Tropical Storm Juliette Forecast Discussion Number 11

Issued at 200 AM PDT Wed Aug 27 2025 984 WTPZ45 KNHC 270835 TCDEP5 Tropical Storm Juliette Discussion Number 11 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP102025 200 AM PDT Wed Aug 27 2025 Juliette still has a relatively healthy presentation this morning on satellite imagery, with a small, but symmetric area of deep convection near its center. However, these cold cloud tops are warming as the cyclone begins to move over the progressively cooler ocean waters of the eastern North Pacific. Satellite intensity estimates are decreasing, and we also received a helpful Metop-C ASCAT pass at 0451 UTC which only had a peak wind retrieval of 36 kt in the eastern side of the tropical storm. The initial intensity is only being lowered to 45 kt this advisory, assuming some scatterometer undersampling of the small circulation. The tropical storm is now moving north-northwestward, estimated at 330/11 kt. This motion should continue for the next day or so with a little more rightward turn as Juliette is steered poleward through a weakness in the mid-level ridging produced by a deep-layer trough located off the California coast. As the cyclone becomes vertically shallow, its forward motion should slow substantially as it becomes more steered by the light and variable low-level flow in this part of the eastern North Pacific. The official track forecast this cycle is fairly similar to the prior one, other than a little more eastward shift after Juliette becomes a remnant low. This forecast remains generally in the middle of the guidance envelope. Juliette's tropical cyclone story is fading as it moves over sea-surface temperatures below 25C which cool further over the next 24 hours. While vertical wind shear is currently low, it is expected to increase substantially after 24 hours, stripping away the storm's remaining convection by that time. Thus, Juliette is expected to become a remnant low in about 36 h. The remnant low should ultimately open up into a trough by the end of the week. Even as Juliette becomes a remnant low, some of its mid- to upper-level moisture will be advected poleward towards portions of northwestern Mexico and the southwestern U.S., which could help to enhance local monsoonal rainfall for these areas in the latter half of this week.

Day 4-8 Outlook
Day 4-8 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0251 AM CDT Wed Aug 27 2025 Valid 301200Z - 041200Z ...DISCUSSION... The upper-low over New England will gradually drift away from the U.S. as an upper ridge builds west of the Rockies this weekend into early next week. Surface troughing will persist across the Plains states, with adequate low-level moisture remaining in place to support scattered thunderstorms. At the moment, it appears that any severe risk will be sparse at best. As the upper ridge persists, a positively tilted upper trough will rapidly translate from Canada into the MS Valley during the middle of next week, accompanied by a progressive surface cold front. This cold front will bring a cool, stable airmass to much of the northern and central Plains into the MS Valley, reducing thunderstorm potential. Strong storms could occur immediately ahead of the surface cold front around Day 8/Wednesday, though questions surrounding the placement and timing of this front preclude the introduction of severe probabilities at this time.

Day 3 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0214 AM CDT Wed Aug 27 2025 Valid 291200Z - 301200Z ...NO SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AREAS FORECAST... ...SUMMARY... A couple of strong storms cannot be ruled out from the Sabine River Valley to the southern High Plains. ...Synopsis... An upper-level cutoff low will meander over New England while upper ridging prevails over the western and central U.S. on Friday. As surface high pressure remains in place across the Great Lakes and Interior West, weak surface troughing will encourage low-level moisture return across the Plains states. With daytime heating, thunderstorms may develop off of a remnant outflow boundary across central TX into the Sabine River Valley that was left behind by storms from Day 2. Storms are also expected to develop off of the higher terrain across the High Plains given modest upslope low-level flow. Adequate low-level moisture, overspread by modest mid-level lapse rates/vertical wind shear, will support isolated strong thunderstorms across the southern High Plains toward the Sabine River Valley (along the outflow boundary). Sub-severe wind/hail should accompany the stronger storms. However, mediocre thermodynamic vertical profiles (evident via forecast soundings), suggest that severe storms should be quite sparse, with no severe probabilities introduced this outlook. ..Squitieri.. 08/27/2025 Read more
