Tropical Storm KATE Forecast Discussion Number 6

2015-11-10 09:56:32| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 400 AM EST TUE NOV 10 2015 000 WTNT42 KNHC 100856 TCDAT2 TROPICAL STORM KATE DISCUSSION NUMBER 6 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL122015 400 AM EST TUE NOV 10 2015 Kate's convective structure hasn't changed much from the previous advisory. The center is located beneath a small central dense overcast with broken banding over the northeastern quadrant. The initial intensity remains 50 kt based on a blend of Dvorak numbers of T3.5/55 kt from TAFB and T3.0/45 kt from SAB. A NOAA P-3 aircraft recently reached Kate, and on its first pass through the center it reported peak 700-mb flight-level winds of 45 kt and surface winds between 40-45 kt. In addition, the central pressure has fallen to 1003 mb. The plane will be making a few more passes through the center during the next couple of hours. Although vertical shear is forecast to increase during the next couple of days and Kate will be moving over water colder than 26C within the next 12-24 hours, all of the reliable intensity models indicate that the cyclone should strengthen and reach hurricane strength by 36 hours, if not sooner. After 36 hours, the shear is expected to increase to nearly 50 kt, which should cause Kate to become post-tropical. One significant change on this cycle is that the 00Z GFS, UKMET, Canadian, and to some extent the ECMWF now show Kate becoming the dominant low pressure area over the north Atlantic in a few days instead of being absorbed by a separate extratropical low. Therefore, the updated NHC is now extended beyond 48 hours, showing Kate as a growing extratropical low over the north Atlantic on days 3-5. Kate is accelerating northward with an initial motion of 010/15 kt. The cyclone is forecast to turn northeastward and east-northeastward and accelerate further through Wednesday as it becomes embedded in the mid-latitude westerlies. Kate is likely to slow down around day 3 when it becomes extratropical, but it should resume a faster northeastward motion toward the far north Atlantic on days 4 and 5. The new NHC track forecast is primarily an update of the previous forecast through 48 hours, and the extended extratropical portion beyond day 3 is generally a blend of the GFS and ECMWF models.

Tropical Storm KATE Public Advisory Number 6

2015-11-10 09:55:56| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 400 AM EST TUE NOV 10 2015 000 WTNT32 KNHC 100855 TCPAT2 BULLETIN TROPICAL STORM KATE ADVISORY NUMBER 6 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL122015 400 AM EST TUE NOV 10 2015 ...KATE ACCELERATING AWAY FROM THE BAHAMAS... SUMMARY OF 400 AM EST...0900 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...28.8N 75.8W ABOUT 280 MI...450 KM NNE OF THE NORTHWESTERN BAHAMAS ABOUT 695 MI...1120 KM WSW OF BERMUDA MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...60 MPH...95 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...N OR 10 DEGREES AT 17 MPH...28 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1003 MB...29.62 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK ------------------------------ At 400 AM EST (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Kate was located near latitude 28.8 North, longitude 75.8 West. Kate is moving toward the north near 17 mph (28 km/h). A turn toward the northeast at a faster forward speed is forecast later today, followed by an even faster east-northeastward motion on Wednesday. On the forecast track, the center of Kate is expected to remain well offshore the east coast of the United States and north of Bermuda. Maximum sustained winds are near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher gusts. Some strengthening is forecast during the next couple of days, and Kate could become a hurricane by Wednesday. Tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 80 miles (130 km) from the center. Data from a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that the minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Swells generated by Kate are affecting the eastward-facing beaches in the northwestern Bahamas but should gradually subside today. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 1000 AM EST. $$ Forecaster Berg
