SUMMARY OF 800 AM MST...1500 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...18.2N 107.8W ABOUT 235 MI...380 KM WSW OF MANZANILLO MEXICO MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...50 MPH...85 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...WNW OR 295 DEGREES AT 9 MPH...15 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...999 MB...29.50 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 800 AM MST (1500 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Dalila was located near latitude 18.2 North, longitude 107.8 West. Dalila is moving toward the west-northwest near 9 mph (15 km/h). A gradual turn towards the west will occur later today, with a continued westward motion the next couple of days Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts. Steady weakening is forecast the during the next few days, and the system is expected to become a remnant low tonight or Monday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles (150 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 999 mb (29.50 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- RAINFALL: Additional rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches are possible across portions of the Mexican states of Nayarit, Jalisco, Colima, and Michoacán today, with localized storm totals up to 9 inches near the coast. Any instances of flash flooding and mudslides should decrease today.

Tropical Storm Dalila Forecast Discussion Number 12

Issued at 800 AM MST Sun Jun 15 2025 000 WTPZ44 KNHC 151434 TCDEP4 Tropical Storm Dalila Discussion Number 12 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP042025 800 AM MST Sun Jun 15 2025 Dalila's satellite appearance has degraded since the previous advisory. Cloud tops have been warming, and what convection remains is displaced to the southwest. First-light visible imagery showed that the system has decoupled with the low-level center exposed due to moderate northeasterly wind shear. Given the current satellite presentation, subjective and objective intensity estimates have started to drop-off, and the initial intensity is lowered to 45 kt for this advisory. Dalila is moving towards the west-northwest, at an estimated 295/8 kt. As Dalila continues to weaken and becomes a shallower vortex, a turn towards the west is expected within the low-level wind flow. The current NHC track forecast is similar to the previous, near the consensus aids. The storm will continue to weaken today within a cooler SSTs and a drier, more stable environment. Dalila is already struggling to produce convection and should become a post-tropical cyclone later tonight. The latest intensity forecast shows steady weakening and the system dissipating in a couple of days.

SPC Jun 15, 2025 1300 UTC Day 1 Convective Outlook

SPC 1300Z Day 1 Outlook
Day 1 Convective Outlook NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0752 AM CDT Sun Jun 15 2025 Valid 151300Z - 161200Z ...THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS... ...SUMMARY... Scattered severe thunderstorms capable of producing large to very large hail and swaths of severe/damaging gusts (some 75+ mph) are likely across portions of central/eastern Montana into northeast Wyoming and the western Dakotas this afternoon through tonight. Additional strong to severe thunderstorms may occur across the central/southern Plains, and over parts of Virginia and North Carolina. ...Northern/Central Plains... Ongoing thunderstorms across northeast MT may pose an isolated hail threat this morning. Otherwise, upper ridging will continue to prevail over the Southwest and southern Rockies today, with a subtle mid-level shortwave trough forecast to advance northeastward across the northern Rockies and adjacent High Plains through the period. This feature will likely aid in the development of initially high-based convection over parts of the northern Rockies in MT by early to mid afternoon. Meanwhile, diurnal heating of a fairly moist low-level airmass (surface dewpoints generally in the mid to upper 50s) and steep mid-level lapse rates will foster around 2000-3000 J/kg of MLCAPE through the afternoon across much of central/eastern MT along and south of a convectively reinforced boundary. Modest low-level east-southeasterly flow will veer to west-southwesterly and strengthen with height through mid/upper levels. This will support around 40-50 kt of effective bulk shear and organized convection. Intense thunderstorm development appears increasingly likely across central MT by mid to late afternoon, as large-scale ascent associated with the shortwave trough overspreads the surface warm sector. Given the rather favorable thermodynamic/kinematic environment expected, initial convection will likely be supercellular and pose a threat for large to very large hail potentially up to 2-3 inches in diameter. The Enhanced Risk has been expanded westward some in central MT to account for this expected supercell development, and a 30% area has been included for large hail as well. With time this evening, one or more clusters will likely evolve from the initially discrete activity across eastern MT into parts of northeast WY and the western Dakotas. Steepened low-level lapse rates should aid in efficient mixing of intense downdraft winds to the surface, and swaths of severe/damaging winds should occur as thunderstorms spread eastward through the evening and into early Monday morning. Some of these winds may be significant, with peak gusts potentially reaching up to 70-80 mph on an isolated basis. Isolated to scattered high-based thunderstorms should develop along the surface trough/dryline within a moist low-level upslope flow regime across portions of southeast WY into eastern CO, and perhaps persisting into western NE/KS. This activity will pose a risk of strong to severe outflow winds given a deeply mixed boundary layer and the presence of very steep low-level lapse rates. Isolated hail may also occur where any robust updrafts can be maintained within a modestly sheared environment. ...Southern Plains... Extensive, loosely organized convection is ongoing this morning across much of western/southern OK and vicinity. This activity is being aided by modest low-level warm moist advection associated with a 20-30 kt southwesterly low-level jet. Current expectations are for these thunderstorms to generally weaken through the rest of the morning as the low-level jet gradually weakens. Even so, an isolated threat for strong/gusty winds may persist with these clusters as they spread generally south-southeastward. There may be some chance for either this morning convection or related outflow to regenerate new, robust convection this afternoon across parts of TX. Have expanded the Marginal Risk for wind southward a bit to account for this potential, but in general weak shear should limit convective organization with southward extent. Otherwise, an isolated severe threat may exist with convection that develops across AR this afternoon in proximity to a remnant MCV, and along/east of the surface lee trough/dryline across the southern High Plains. ...Virginia/North Carolina... A low-amplitude mid-level shortwave trough will move eastward across the central/southern Appalachians today. A related weak surface low should develop eastward near the NC/VA border through the afternoon. A moist and unstable airmass will likely be in place across much of NC and southern VA as filtered daytime heating occurs. Poor lapse rates aloft and modest deep-layer shear should limit the overall severe potential across this region. Still, isolated wet microbursts and/or marginally severe hail may occur with the stronger updrafts/cores that can develop this afternoon and early evening. ..Gleason/Kerr.. 06/15/2025 Read more

This feature will likely aid in the development of initially high-based convection over parts of the northern Rockies in MT by early to mid afternoon. Meanwhile, diurnal heating of a fairly moist low-level airmass (surface dewpoints generally in the mid to upper 50s) and steep mid-level lapse rates will foster around 2000-3000 J/kg of MLCAPE through the afternoon across much of central/eastern MT along and south of a convectively reinforced boundary. Modest low-level east-southeasterly flow will veer to west-southwesterly and strengthen with height through mid/upper levels. This will support around 40-50 kt of effective bulk shear and organized convection. Intense thunderstorm development appears increasingly likely across central MT by mid to late afternoon, as large-scale ascent associated with the shortwave trough overspreads the surface warm sector. Given the rather favorable thermodynamic/kinematic environment expected, initial convection will likely be supercellular and pose a threat for large to very large hail potentially up to 2-3 inches in diameter. The Enhanced Risk has been expanded westward some in central MT to account for this expected supercell development, and a 30% area has been included for large hail as well. With time this evening, one or more clusters will likely evolve from the initially discrete activity across eastern MT into parts of northeast WY and the western Dakotas. Steepened low-level lapse rates should aid in efficient mixing of intense downdraft winds to the surface, and swaths of severe/damaging winds should occur as thunderstorms spread eastward through the evening and into early Monday morning. Some of these winds may be significant, with peak gusts potentially reaching up to 70-80 mph on an isolated basis. Isolated to scattered high-based thunderstorms should develop along the surface trough/dryline within a moist low-level upslope flow regime across portions of southeast WY into eastern CO, and perhaps persisting into western NE/KS. This activity will pose a risk of strong to severe outflow winds given a deeply mixed boundary layer and the presence of very steep low-level lapse rates. Isolated hail may also occur where any robust updrafts can be maintained within a modestly sheared environment. ...Southern Plains... Extensive, loosely organized convection is ongoing this morning across much of western/southern OK and vicinity. This activity is being aided by modest low-level warm moist advection associated with a 20-30 kt southwesterly low-level jet. Current expectations are for these thunderstorms to generally weaken through the rest of the morning as the low-level jet gradually weakens. Even so, an isolated threat for strong/gusty winds may persist with these clusters as they spread generally south-southeastward. There may be some chance for either this morning convection or related outflow to regenerate new, robust convection this afternoon across parts of TX. Have expanded the Marginal Risk for wind southward a bit to account for this potential, but in general weak shear should limit convective organization with southward extent. Otherwise, an isolated severe threat may exist with convection that develops across AR this afternoon in proximity to a remnant MCV, and along/east of the surface lee trough/dryline across the southern High Plains. ...Virginia/North Carolina... A low-amplitude mid-level shortwave trough will move eastward across the central/southern Appalachians today. A related weak surface low should develop eastward near the NC/VA border through the afternoon. A moist and unstable airmass will likely be in place across much of NC and southern VA as filtered daytime heating occurs. Poor lapse rates aloft and modest deep-layer shear should limit the overall severe potential across this region. Still, isolated wet microbursts and/or marginally severe hail may occur with the stronger updrafts/cores that can develop this afternoon and early evening. ..Gleason/Kerr.. 06/15/2025 Read more

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
500 AM PDT Sun Jun 15 2025

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

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Dalila, located in the eastern Pacific basin a couple of
hundred miles west of the coast of southwestern Mexico.

Offshore of Central America and Southeastern Mexico (EP94):
A broad area of low pressure continues to produce disorganized
showers and thunderstorms along the coasts of El Salvador, Honduras,
Nicaragua, Guatemala, Costa Rica and adjacent offshore waters.
Environmental conditions appear conducive for gradual development of
this system, and a tropical depression could form by the middle of
this week while moving westward to west-northwestward just offshore
of the coasts of El Salvador, Guatemala, and southeastern Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...60 percent.
