Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1100 PM PDT Sun Aug 24 2025

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

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Depression Ten-E, located in the east Pacific basin, several hundred
miles south of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.

Central East Pacific:
An area of low pressure is likely to form in a few days well to the
south of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula.
Subsequent slow development is possible late this week into the
weekend as the system moves westward to west-northwestward at 10 to
15 mph.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...near 0 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...low...20 percent.

&&

Public Advisories on Tropical Depression Ten-E are issued under WMO
header WTPZ35 KNHC and under AWIPS header MIATCPEP5.
Forecast/Advisories on Tropical Depression Ten-E are issued under

North Carolina's Catawba-Wateree water system in a drought watch

1 month ago
The Catawba-Wateree River Basin has returned to normal conditions after recent weeks of rain. Hoodline Charlotte (N.C.), Aug 25, 2025 The Catawba-Wateree Drought Management Advisory Group announced that the river system was in Stage 0 of its drought protocol, which means increased monitoring of the reservoirs. Stage 0 does not yet require any water conservation steps. WSOC-TV ABC 9 Charlotte (N.C.), April 3, 2025

MD 2013 CONCERNING SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 603... FOR PARTS OF THE EASTERN TEXAS PANHANDLE
Mesoscale Discussion 2013 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0918 PM CDT Sun Aug 24 2025 Areas affected...Parts of the eastern Texas Panhandle Concerning...Severe Thunderstorm Watch 603... Valid 250218Z - 250315Z The severe weather threat for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 603 continues. SUMMARY...A localized risk of severe hail and wind continues across parts of Severe Thunderstorm Watch 603 in the eastern Texas Panhandle. DISCUSSION...The latest radar data from KAMA shows ongoing convection moving southward across the eastern TX Panhandle, including one discrete supercell moving across Gray/Donley Counties. This storm is approaching the southern edge of a weakly unstable air mass, where around 30 kt of effective shear will continue to promote a risk of large hail and locally severe gusts in the near term. However, given limited residence time in the surface-based buoyancy and a gradual increase in nocturnal PBL static stability, the severe risk should gradually decrease over the next couple hours, and a downstream watch is not currently expected. ..Weinman.. 08/25/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...

Tropical Depression Ten-E Forecast Discussion Number 2

Issued at 800 PM MST Sun Aug 24 2025 000 WTPZ45 KNHC 250233 TCDEP5 Tropical Depression Ten-E Discussion Number 2 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP102025 800 PM MST Sun Aug 24 2025 The depression has changed little over the past several hours, and it continues to maintain a broad structure with numerous bands of deep convection. The convection, however, is not particularly well organized and remains confined to the western half of the circulation due to moderate northeasterly vertical wind shear. The initial intensity remains 30 kt based on a blend of the latest satellite estimates. Tropical Depression Ten-E is moving west-northwestward at 11 kt on the south side of a subtropical high. This general motion is expected to continue during the next day or so as the steering pattern persists. After that time, a gradual turn to the northwest and then the north-northwest is forecast as the system moves into a weakness within the subtropical ridge. The NHC track forecast is similar to the previous one, and lies near the middle of the guidance envelope. The shear over the system is expected to lessen soon, and that should allow the cyclone to strengthen over the next day or two. However, any strengthening is likely to be short-lived as the system is expected to move over sub 26C waters in about 48 hours. The expected track over cooler water combined with a progressively drier airmass should cause a weakening trend, and ultimately lead to the system becoming a post-tropical low in about 4 days. The NHC intensity forecast is slightly higher than the previous one and lies fairly close to the IVCN consensus aid.

URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 603 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 720 PM CDT Sun Aug 24 2025 The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of Western Oklahoma Eastern Texas Panhandle * Effective this Sunday evening from 720 PM until 1100 PM CDT. * Primary threats include... Scattered damaging winds and isolated significant gusts to 80 mph possible Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2.5 inches in diameter possible SUMMARY...A cluster of severe thunderstorms will likely continue to pose a risk for severe gusts (60-80 mph) and large to very large hail (1 to 2.5 inches in diameter) through the mid evening hours. Additional storm development is possible over the Texas and Oklahoma Panhandles this evening. These potential additional storms may yield a risk for large hail and severe gusts as well. The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 70 statute miles east and west of a line from 35 miles east northeast of Guymon OK to 25 miles west of Altus OK. For a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU3). PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS... REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area. Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce tornadoes. && OTHER WATCH INFORMATION...CONTINUE...WW 602... AVIATION...A few severe thunderstorms with hail surface and aloft to 2.5 inches.

A watch is not currently expected, though trends are being monitored. DISCUSSION...A couple of discrete storms have recently intensified along a north/south-oriented surface boundary extending across the far eastern TX Panhandle, while a separate storm cluster has been evolving along an antecedent outflow boundary in northwest OK. Ahead of these storms, a warm/moist PBL (lower 60s dewpoints) and modest midlevel lapse rates are yielding weak surface-based buoyancy. However, around 40 kt of effective shear should continue to favor supercell structure, with a risk of isolated large to very large hail and locally severe gusts. The severe risk should persist for another couple hours, prior to increasing nocturnal static stability. Given the potentially limited spatiotemporal nature of the threat, it is unclear if a watch is needed, though trends are being monitored. ..Weinman/Smith.. 08/24/2025 ...Please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product...
