Post-Tropical Cyclone HERMINE Forecast Discussion Number 28

2016-09-04 10:59:44| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 500 AM EDT SUN SEP 04 2016 000 WTNT44 KNHC 040859 TCDAT4 POST-TROPICAL CYCLONE HERMINE DISCUSSION NUMBER 28 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL092016 500 AM EDT SUN SEP 04 2016 The overall structure of Hermine has changed little during the past 6 hours. A ring of shallow convection has developed within 60-100 n mi northwest through northeast of the center, possibly due to that portion of the circulation passing over the Gulf Stream, where water temperatures are 29-30C. An earlier ASCAT-B pass indicated that winds had decreased to 50-55 kt, and recent data from an Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft confirms that Hermine has peak winds of 55 kt. The initial motion estimate is 065/10 kt. Hermine is expected to move slowly northward and perhaps erratically during the next 36 hours as the post-tropical cyclone begins to interact with an approaching strong mid-/upper-level shortwave trough that is gradually becoming more negatively tilted based on water vapor imagery. By 36-48 hours, Hermine is expected to become vertically stacked beneath a cut-off low, which could result in the cyclone briefly stalling south of southern New England before lifting out to the northeast by 72 hours. The models are in fairly good agreement on this developing track scenario through about 36 hours, but then diverge significantly after that with the UKMET model turning Hermine farther west closer to the New Jersey coast while the ECMWF lifts out Hermine more quickly. The GFS solution lies between these two extremes, and the new forecast track closely follows that model. However, there remains low confidence in any particular model. Little change in strength is likely today. However, by late tonight and on Monday, the models indicate that at least 6 deg C of cooling in the mid-/upper-levels will occur when Hermine's low-level circulation moves underneath the cut-off low. The combination of the much cooler air aloft over SSTs of at least 27-28C should generate strong instability and some inner-core convection, possibly resulting in a Hermine making the transition to a subtropical cyclone and strengthening back to hurricane force. The guidance is in good agreement that the system should slowly weaken after 48 hours when the system will be moving over much cooler water north of the Gulf Stream. The intensity forecast closely follows a blend of the GFS-ECMWF model solutions. KEY MESSAGES: 1. The slow motion and large wind field associated with Hermine will result in a long duration of hazardous conditions along much of the mid-Atlantic coast extending into southern New England through the holiday weekend and into midweek. 2. Small changes in the meandering track of Hermine could result in large differences in the impacts along the mid-Atlantic coast during the next several days. In addition, there could be multiple occurrences of tropical storm conditions in some locations within the warning area during this time. 3. Although Hermine has become a post-tropical cyclone, NHC will continue to issue its full suite of advisory and warning products as long as the system remains a significant threat to land areas. 4. P-surge, the model that drives the Potential Storm Surge Flooding Graphic, is designed for a wind field typical of a tropical cyclone. The wind field of Hermine is very poorly represented by the P-surge model and as a result, Flooding Graphics prior to today's 11 am EDT advisory understated the inundation risk from the Carolinas northward. The NWS is using the GFS ensemble system instead of P-surge for ongoing issuances of the Potential Storm Surge Flooding Graphic to provide a more realistic depiction of the threat. 5. The Prototype Storm Surge Watch/Warning Graphic accounts for the current wind structure of Hermine, and therefore accurately identifies those areas at risk for life-threatening storm surge. This graphic will also continue to be produced for Hermine.

Post-Tropical Cyclone HERMINE Public Advisory Number 28

2016-09-04 10:43:43| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 500 AM EDT SUN SEP 04 2016 000 WTNT34 KNHC 040843 TCPAT4 BULLETIN POST-TROPICAL CYCLONE HERMINE ADVISORY NUMBER 28 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL092016 500 AM EDT SUN SEP 04 2016 ...HERMINE EXPECTED TO SLOW DOWN AND TURN NORTHWARD LATER TODAY... ...DANGEROUS STORM SURGE TO CONTINUE ALONG THE COAST FROM VIRGINIA TO NEW JERSEY... SUMMARY OF 500 AM EDT...0900 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...36.8N 70.8W ABOUT 305 MI...485 KM SSE OF THE EASTERN TIP OF LONG ISLAND ABOUT 255 MI...415 KM ESE OF OCEAN CITY MARYLAND MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...65 MPH...100 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...ENE OR 65 DEGREES AT 12 MPH...19 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...998 MB...29.47 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY: The Tropical Storm Warning has been discontinued south of Duck, North Carolina. SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for... * Duck to west of Watch Hill * Chesapeake Bay from Smith Point southward * Delaware Bay A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for... * Watch Hill to Sagamore Beach * Block Island * Martha's Vineyard * Nantucket For storm information specific to your area, including possible inland watches and warnings, please monitor products issued by your local National Weather Service forecast office. DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK ------------------------------ At 500 AM EDT (0900 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Hermine was located near latitude 36.8 North, longitude 70.8 West. The post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the east-northeast near 12 mph (19 km/h). A turn toward the northeast and the north with a decrease in forward speed is expected later today, followed by a slow northward to northwestward motion through Monday. On the forecast track, the center of Hermine will meander slowly offshore of the mid-Atlantic coast for the next couple of days. Maximum sustained winds are near 65 mph (100 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is expected today. After that, the cyclone is forecast to intensify to hurricane force late tonight and on Monday. Hermine has a large wind field. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 205 miles (335 km) from the center. The minimum central pressure based on recent reports from an Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft is 998 mb (29.47 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Tropical storm conditions will continue to spread northward within the warning area along the Atlantic coast through Monday, and there may be multiple occurrences of tropical storm conditions along portions of the mid-Atlantic coast in the warning area during the next couple of days. Tropical storm conditions are possible in the watch area by Monday. STORM SURGE: The combination of a storm surge and the tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising waters moving inland from the shoreline. Along the immediate coastline, the surge will be accompanied by large and dangerous waves. There is a danger of life-threatening inundation through tonight in the Hampton Roads area, and in the next 36 hours from Chincoteague, Virginia, to Sandy Hook, New Jersey. Persons within these areas should take all necessary actions to protect life and property from rising water. Promptly follow all instructions, including evacuation orders, from local officials. There is also the possibility of life-threatening inundation during the next 48 hours at many coastal locations between Sandy Hook, New Jersey, and Bridgeport, Connecticut. For a depiction of areas at risk, please see the Prototype Storm Surge Watch/Warning graphic, which displays areas that would qualify for inclusion under a storm surge watch or warning currently under development by the National Weather Service and planned for operational use in 2017. The Prototype Graphic is available at www.hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?wsurge The water could reach the following heights above ground if the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide... North Carolina sounds...1 to 3 feet Hampton Roads area...2 to 4 feet Chincoteague, VA to Sandy Hook, NJ...3 to 5 feet Sandy Hook, NJ to Bridgeport, CT...2 to 4 feet RAINFALL: Heavy rainfall associated with Hermine will remain offshore through Monday/Labor Day. Hermine will produce rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches over southern New England from Long Island to eastern Massachusetts, and additional rainfall of one inch or less along the coastline of the mid-Atlantic states. SURF: Large waves generated by Hermine will affect the U.S. east coast from the mid-Atlantic states and expand northward along the coast of southern New England through Monday. These waves are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions, and significant beach erosion. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next intermediate advisory at 800 AM EDT. Next complete advisory at 1100 AM EDT. $$ Forecaster Stewart
