SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for... * All of the Azores Islands A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area, in this case within 12 to 24 hours. Interests in Ireland and the United Kingdom should consult products from their local meteorological service for information about potential impacts from Helene in those locations. Local forecasts and warnings for the UK can be found on the website of the UK Met Office at https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/ . Local forecasts and warnings for Ireland can be found on the website of Met Eireann at https://www.met.ie/ . DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 200 PM AST (1800 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Helene was located near latitude 39.5 North, longitude 33.0 West. Helene is moving toward the northeast near 21 mph (33 km/h) and this motion is expected to continue with an increase in forward speed during the next couple of days. On the forecast track, Helene should pass near or over the western Azores later today or tonight and then approach Ireland and the United Kingdom Sunday night and Monday. Maximum sustained winds are near 70 mph (110 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is forecast today, but gradual weakening is expected beginning tonight or on Sunday. Helene is expected to transition to an extratropical cyclone as it approaches Ireland and the United Kingdom. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185 miles (295 km) from the center. Flores recently reported a wind gust of 44 mph (70 km/h). The estimated minimum central pressure is 988 mb (29.18 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected within portions of the warning area within the next few hours. These conditions should continue through tonight. RAINFALL: Helene is expected to produce total rainfall amounts 1 to 2 inches across the far western Azores. Rainfall amounts of 1 to 2 inches (25 to 50 mm) are expected across western Ireland and Scotland. SURF: Swells generated by Helene are affecting portions of the Azores. These swells are likely to continue for another couple of days and could cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 500 PM AST. $$ Forecaster Beven

Tropical Storm Helene Forecast Discussion Number 33

2018-09-15 16:35:06| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 1100 AM AST Sat Sep 15 2018 582 WTNT43 KNHC 151435 TCDAT3 Tropical Storm Helene Discussion Number 33 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL082018 1100 AM AST Sat Sep 15 2018 The cloud pattern of Helene is starting to show signs of decay, with the central convection decreasing since the previous advisory and the low-level center becoming partly exposed in a region between convective bands. The initial intensity is held at 60 kt for this advisory in best agreement with the CIMSS satellite consensus, but it is possible this is generous. The 34-kt wind radii in the southeastern quadrant were revised based on a partial ASCAT pass. Helene is moving toward colder water and into an area of strong shear associated with the mid-latitude westerlies. This should cause the system to weaken and, as it merges with a frontal system, become an extratropical cyclone in about 36 h. The global models forecast Helene to be absorbed into a large non-tropical low over the far north Atlantic after it passes Ireland and the United Kingdom, and thus the system is forecast to dissipate completely between 72-96 h. Helene has turned northeastward with the initial motion now 035/18. A faster motion toward the northeast should occur during the remainder of the cyclone's life as it becomes more embedded in the westerlies. On the forecast track, Helene should pass near or over the western Azores later today or tonight, and head toward Ireland and the United Kingdom late this weekend and early next week. There are no significant changes to either the track guidance or the official forecast track since the last advisory. Tropical storm conditions should spread over portions of the Azores during the next several hours and continue through tonight. Helene is also expected to be a storm-force post-tropical cyclone when it approaches Ireland and the United Kingdom in two to three days. Interests in those locations should consult products from their local meteorological service for information about potential impacts from Helene. Local forecasts and warnings for the UK can be found on the website of the UK Met Office at https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/. Local forecasts and warnings for Ireland can be found on the website of Met Eireann at https://www.met.ie/.
