Tropical Storm Eugene Forecast Discussion Number 2

2 years ago
Issued at 300 PM MDT Sat Aug 05 2023 444 WTPZ41 KNHC 052038 TCDEP1 Tropical Storm Eugene Discussion Number 2 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP062023 300 PM MDT Sat Aug 05 2023 This afternoon's satellite presentation of the system has improved, with a well-developed curved band in its eastern semicircle and a recent burst of deep convection with -75 Celsius cloud tops just east of the surface circulation. Based on this and a consensus of the objective intensity estimates from UW-CIMSS, the system is being upgraded to Tropical Storm Eugene, making it the fifth tropical storm of the eastern North Pacific hurricane season. Although dry mid-tropospheric air originating from mainland Mexico may be negatively affecting the cyclone's intensification rate, as indicated by the presence of a few arc clouds, a brief window of opportunity still exists for further strengthening during the next day or so. By mid-period, Eugene is expected to move over the cooler water west of the Baja California peninsula and enter a surrounding dry and stable marine-layer air mass. The NHC forecast calls for the cyclone to degenerate to a remnant low by 72 hours, or sooner, and dissipation in 5 days which is slightly below the Decay SHIPS statistical guidance, but close to the LGEM and the usually reliable intensity consensus guidance. The initial estimated motion is northwestward or 315/13 kt. The track forecast philosophy remains unchanged, and Eugene should move generally northwestward in the short term within the southeasterly mid-level steering flow provided by a subtropical ridge to the north. By 48 hours, the vertically shallow cyclone should turn toward the west-northwest in the lower boundary trade wind flow while a reduction in forward speed takes place, possibly meandering before dissipating next week. The updated NHC track forecast is very similar to the previous official forecast and lies near the various consensus models. Although the track forecast is currently off the southwestern coast of Mexico, enough uncertainty still exists that interests in the southern portion of the Baja California peninsula should monitor the progress of this system.

Hurricane Dora Forecast Discussion Number 22

2 years ago
Issued at 1100 AM HST Sat Aug 05 2023 000 WTPZ45 KNHC 052037 TCDEP5 Hurricane Dora Discussion Number 22 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP052023 1100 AM HST Sat Aug 05 2023 Dora has become significantly better organized over the past six hours, with a well-defined 15 n mi wide eye inside a cold central dense overcast. The various subjective and objective satellite intensity estimates are now in the 100-120 kt range, and the initial intensity is increased to 115 kt in best agreement with the subjective estimates from TAFB and SAB. As noted in the last several advisories, Dora continues moving westward along the southern side of a deep-layer ridge to the north. This ridge is expected to build westward for the next three days or so, which should induce a somewhat faster forward speed while it passes well south of Hawaii early next week. There has been little change to the track guidance since the last advisory, and the new forecast track is again almost identical to the old track. Dora is moving over sea surface temperatures near 27C, and it is currently in a light-shear environment. This is at least partly responsible for the current intensification. The intensity guidance suggests this round of intensification should be almost over, although there is some uncertainty in this since it underestimated how strong the storm would get today. Based on the current trends and the current guidance, the intensity forecast calls for some additional strengthening during the next 12 h, followed by some weakening. After 48 h, while Dora should remain over 27C sea surface temperatures and in light shear through 96 h, it is expected to encounter a drier environment and an area of upper-level convergence. These factors should lead to continued gradual weakening, with the caveat that there is a large spread in the guidance on how much weakening will occur. The early part of the intensity forecast follows the upper edge of the intensity guidance, while the 60-120 h portion is in best agreement with the SHIPS model.

SUMMARY OF 300 PM MDT...2100 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...19.2N 107.7W ABOUT 290 MI...470 KM SSE OF THE SOUTHERN TIP OF BAJA CALIFORNIA MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...40 MPH...65 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...NW OR 315 DEGREES AT 15 MPH...24 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1004 MB...29.65 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. Interests in the southern portion of the Baja California peninsula should monitor the progress of this system. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 300 PM MDT (2100 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Eugene was located near latitude 19.2 North, longitude 107.7 West. Eugene is moving toward the northwest near 15 mph (24 km/h), and this motion should continue through the weekend followed by a turn toward the west-northwest early next week. Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts. Some further strengthening is forecast during the next couple of days. Afterward, weakening is expected and the cyclone should quickly become a remnant low in 3 days. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- RAINFALL: Heavy rainfall associated with Eugene will remain mostly off the southwest Mexican coast. The outer edges of rainfall from the depression may produce 1 to 2 inches of rain along the coastal sections of the southwestern Mexican states of Colima, Jalisco, Nayarit and the southern portion of Baja California Sur.

SPC 1730Z Day 2 Outlook
Day 2 Convective Outlook CORR 1 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0315 PM CDT Sat Aug 05 2023 Valid 061200Z - 071200Z ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM THE MID-MISSISSIPPI INTO PARTS OF THE OHIO AND TENNESSEE VALLEYS... CORRECTED FOR GENERAL THUNDER LINE ...SUMMARY... Widely scattered to scattered severe thunderstorms are expected Sunday over portions of the Midwest and Ohio and Tennessee Valley regions. ...Synopsis... A shortwave trough now over the Dakotas will continue into the Midwest and parts of the Mid-Mississippi/Lower Ohio Valleys on Sunday. Multiple convectively augmented shortwave troughs/MCVs are expected to exist within the Great Lakes region as well as the Lower Ohio Valley. At the surface, low pressure systems are forecast within the Lower Great Lakes and the Mid-Missouri Valley. A cold front is expected to be moving through the southern Plains. A warm front will be present within the Ohio Valley into perhaps parts of the Mid-Atlantic. ...Mississippi/Ohio/Tennessee Valleys... Confidence is highest in convection occurring with a shortwave trough/MCV that moves out of Nebraska/Iowa on Saturday night. Convection may be ongoing into parts of eastern Iowa/western Illinois early in the period. There is some uncertainty on the degree of destabilization as there will likely be some impact in the wake of two MCVs moving out of the area early in the period. The greatest amount of surface heating is still expected from parts of central/southern Illinois and southern Indiana southward into Tennessee. Storm coverage will be maximized near the MCV, but other development may occur farther south along the cold front as well. Strong/damaging wind gusts are the primary threat expected, but some large hail could occur as well. There could be a more concentrated area of wind damage potential in southern Illinois/Indiana, but confidence is too low for an increase in wind probabilities. ...Southeast... An MCV from convection in the southern Plains will move into the Mid-South/Southeast during the afternoon. Strong surface heating of a moist airmass and forcing from the MCV could promote development of a cluster of storms. The location of this activity is a bit uncertain, but wind damage risk is probable where development occurs given the steep low/mid-level lapse rates. ...Mid-Atlantic... An MCV is forecast to move out of eastern Kentucky/Tennessee. Given cloud cover expected with this feature, downstream destabilization is far from certain especially given the poor mid-level lapse rates expected. Isolated wind damage may occur with a few stronger storms. Should an area of greater surface heating/storm intensity become apparent, wind probabilities could be increased. ...Eastern Colorado... Moderate mid-level winds will persist across the Divide in the wake of the mid-level trough. Modestly moist post-frontal upslope flow may be enough to initiate a few strong storms. Wind profiles would favor some potential for at least small hail. Currently, thermodynamic profiles do not appear conducive to a greater threat of large hail. Hail probabilities will be withheld for now. ..Wendt.. 08/05/2023 Read more

Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0258 PM CDT Sat Aug 05 2023 Valid 052000Z - 061200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN COLORADO INTO SOUTHERN KANSAS AND NORTHERN/CENTRAL OKLAHOMA... ...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FROM EASTERN ILLINOIS INTO CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PARTS OF INDIANA... ...SUMMARY... The most concentrated area of severe thunderstorms with potential for destructive wind and hail is expected across parts of the south-central Great Plains the remainder of this afternoon through tonight. Potential for a few tornadoes will exist separately over the Mid-Missouri and Wabash Valleys during the late this afternoon to early evening. ...20Z Update... Weak warm advection activity from far southern Kansas into northern Oklahoma has tempered destabilization especially for southeast Kansas into southwest Missouri. Given these observational trends along with model solutions that have generally handled this activity better, wind probabilities have been reduced for these areas. Even with some stabilization remaining into northeast Oklahoma, the low-level jet still may support an organized MCS moving into central/northeast Oklahoma tonight. Probabilities remain unchanged in northeast Oklahoma and have been increased into parts of central Oklahoma. Given the potential for clustering in parts of Arkansas into western Tennessee and northern Mississippi, wind probabilities have been adjusted accordingly. Ongoing activity will move into strongly buoyant airmass where temperatures have risen into the upper 90s to low 100s F. See mesoscale discussion #1846 for more short-term details across these areas. ..Wendt.. 08/05/2023 .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1127 AM CDT Sat Aug 05 2023/ ...Synopsis... Water-vapor imagery this morning shows a rather complex upper-air pattern with several important features that will influence the severe threat this afternoon into tonight. An MCV located over the southeast KS/northeast OK vicinity will continue to move east across the Ozarks during the day. Another MCV over IL will gradually shift east into IN by this evening. A mid-level low will move little over SD during the period, while a belt of stronger mid- to upper-level flow associated with an upper jet noses into the central High Plains. In the low levels, extensive outflow is evident over much of the northern half of OK into KS in wake of earlier morning thunderstorm activity near the OK/KS border. Easterly low-level flow will aid in maintaining moist conditions into eastern CO southward to the Raton Mesa. A narrow moist plume will protrude northward from eastern NE/western IA into southeast SD ahead of a gradually eastward-moving cool front. Low-level confluence will aid in focusing thunderstorm development over the lower Wabash Valley beginning early this afternoon through early evening. ...Eastern CO/northeast NM into the TX Panhandle and KS/OK... Not much change from previous forecast thinking. Convective outflow late this morning arcs westward across central OK through the central TX Panhandle. Near and north of the outflow, late morning thunderstorms over OK may continue to linger into the mid afternoon across the northern half of OK and pose an isolated risk for severe gusts. The initial thunderstorm development and more appreciable severe risk will probably focus near the Raton Mesa and Palmer Divide towards mid-afternoon. Moist upslope flow beneath the left exit region of an upper jet overspreading the central High Plains will facilitate a favorable setup for supercells. Potential will exist for regenerative supercells spreading east-southeast off the higher terrain. A few of these may become long-lived and capable of producing baseball to softball-sized hail centered on the southeast CO vicinity given highly elongated mid to upper hodographs and large buoyancy amid very steep mid-level lapse rates. A strengthening low-level jet over west TX during the evening will favor increasing convective development with multiple severe thunderstorm clusters spreading across western and southern KS, the Panhandles, and western to northern OK. Severe wind gusts will become more prolific as this occurs, which should include potential for sporadic gusts from 70-85 mph. ...Ozarks/Mid South... Ongoing thunderstorm cluster late this morning will continue to move east into a destabilizing and very unstable airmass across northern AR. Strong heating via mostly clear skies will result in temperatures warming into the 90s with mid to upper 70s dewpoints. Forecast soundings show a moderate mid-level flow enhancement via the approaching disturbance and MLCAPE 3000-4500 J/kg. Although uncertainty is high regarding details, it is possible some rejuvenation to the thunderstorm activity occurs on the periphery of the deeper cores going forward into the early-mid afternoon. If this occurs, widely scattered strong to severe gusts are possible into the early evening. ...Mid-MO Valley vicinity... A mid-level low over central SD will drift east with stronger destabilization confined downstream of it from southeast SD to eastern NE and far western IA. Early afternoon convective development will initially be most pronounced across southeast SD and likely arc southward into at least northeast NE before spreading into northwest IA later. Weaknesses in the mid-level wind profile may yield a linear cluster type mode, but some enlargement to the low-level hodograph, especially in the SD/NE/IA border area, should foster low-level updraft rotation capable of producing a couple tornadoes. Otherwise, slow-moving linear clusters will yield a threat for isolated severe hail and wind persisting through the evening. ...IL/IN vicinity... An MCV over central IL will drift east into IN through tonight. Continued destabilization despite appreciable cloud cover will become increasingly conducive for scattered storms to develop by early to mid afternoon. Forecast soundings show a spatially confined corridor of favorable low-level SRH overlapping the northeast extent of the surface-based instability plume in southern parts of IL/IN. A few supercells will probably evolve as storms mature through the late afternoon/early evening and move east into south-central IN. Any vigorous updraft/supercell will be capable of at least an isolated, short-term risk for a tornado given the wind profile/moist low levels. Read more
