Tropical Storm Olaf Forecast Discussion Number 13

2021-09-10 22:45:35| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)

Issued at 300 PM MDT Fri Sep 10 2021 000 WTPZ45 KNHC 102045 TCDEP5 Tropical Storm Olaf Discussion Number 13 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP152021 300 PM MDT Fri Sep 10 2021 The low-level center of Olaf is completely exposed in visible satellite imagery this afternoon. The system has been devoid of organized convection since around 1200 UTC, and Olaf is at risk of losing its status as a tropical cyclone overnight if it is unable to generate new convection within the next 12 h. Despite its lack of convection, a weather station at Puerto Cortes measured sustained tropical-storm-force winds several hours ago as the center of Olaf passed very near the observation site, and it has more recently reported several tropical-storm-force gusts. The initial intensity is lowered to 40 kt for this advisory based on the aforementioned surface observations and T2.5/35 kt Dvorak classifications from TAFB and SAB. Olaf has rapidly weakened today, and this weakening trend is expected to continue during the next couple of days. The cyclone will be moving over sub-26 deg C sea-surface temperatures and into a drier, more stable environment that should largely suppress new convective development. Model simulated satellite imagery from the GFS and ECMWF indicate that Olaf will struggle to produce any new convection by tomorrow, and the intensity guidance consensus favors continued weakening as the vortex spins down. The official NHC intensity forecast shows Olaf becoming a 25-kt remnant low by 24 h. The remnant low is forecast to linger around for several days after, but remain weak as it moves over the open waters of the eastern Pacific. The tropical storm has begun moving more westward away from Baja California Sur, and its initial motion is estimated to be west-northwest (295 degrees) at 9 kt. A mid-level ridge building to the north of Olaf should steer the cyclone westward tonight into Saturday. By late Saturday, the shallow cyclone will begin moving southwestward as it is steered around a low-level ridge to its northwest. The official NHC track forecast lies near the middle of the guidance envelope, closest to the multi-model consensus aids. Key Messages: 1. Olaf is moving away from the Baja California peninsula, and lingering tropical storm conditions along portions of the southwestern coast of Baja California Sur are forecast to diminish this evening. 2. Heavy rains associated with Olaf are expected across portions of southern Baja California Sur through tonight. This rainfall may trigger life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides.

SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for... * Baja California Sur Mexico from Puerto San Andresito southward to Santa Fe A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected or occurring somewhere within the tropical storm warning area. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 300 PM MDT (2100 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Olaf was located near latitude 24.6 North, longitude 112.7 West. Olaf is moving toward the west-northwest near 10 mph (17 km/h). A turn toward the west is expected tonight and Saturday, followed by a southwestward motion beginning on Saturday night and continuing into early next week. On the forecast track, the center of Olaf will move away from the southwestern coast of Baja California Sur tonight. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Additional weakening is expected during the next couple of days, and Olaf is forecast to degenerate to a post-tropical remnant low on Saturday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the center. A weather station at Puerto Cortes reported a wind gust of 38 mph (61 km/h) during the past couple of hours. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1001 mb (29.56 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Olaf can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP5 and WMO header WTPZ45 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/graphics_ep5.shtml?key_messages WIND: Tropical storm conditions are occurring within portions of the tropical storm warning area, but are expected to subside during the next several hours. RAINFALL: Olaf is expected to produce an additional 2 to 4 inches of rain with isolated maximum amounts of 6 inches across portions of southern Baja California Sur through tonight. This rainfall may trigger life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides. STORM SURGE: Storm surge is expected to produce coastal flooding in regions of onshore winds within the warning area. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large waves. SURF: Swells generated by Olaf will affect portions of the coasts of Nayarit and Sinaloa through this evening, and portions of the west coast of Baja California Sur through Saturday. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next intermediate advisory at 600 PM MDT. Next complete advisory at 900 PM MDT. $$ Forecaster Reinhart
