Hurricane Delta Forecast Discussion Number 19
2020-10-09 10:45:29| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)
Issued at 400 AM CDT Fri Oct 09 2020 297 WTNT41 KNHC 090845 TCDAT1 Hurricane Delta Discussion Number 19 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL262020 400 AM CDT Fri Oct 09 2020 Delta has been generally steady in strength during the past several hours as it starts to close in on the southwestern Louisiana coast. An eye has occasionally been evident in geostationary satellite images, and deep convection remains quite intense around that feature. The Air Force Hurricane Hunters recently found have been investigating Delta this morning, and recently reported maximum flight-level winds of 125 kt and peak SFMR surface winds of 99 kt. Based on a blend of this data, the initial intensity is held at 105 kt. The hurricane appears to be leveling off in strength as recent microwave passes show some asymmetry in the eyewall and vertical tilt due to southwesterly shear. The core of the hurricane passed very close to NOAA buoy 42002 a few hours ago, and the pressure at the buoy fell to 953 mb. The buoy also reported peak winds around 70 kt and a significant wave height of about 35 ft. The major hurricane is now moving northward at 10 kt. The track forecast models remain quite consistent. Delta is forecast to continue moving northward today and then turn north-northeastward tonight between a ridge over the western Atlantic and a trough over the south-central United States. This motion is expected to take the core of the hurricane to the Louisiana coast this evening. After landfall, a turn to the northeast is forecast as a larger trough moves eastward toward Delta, and that motion should continue until the cyclone dissipates over Tennessee or Kentucky in a few days. The models remain tightly clustered, and only minor tweaks were made to the previous NHC track forecast. Delta is expected to move over waters with progressively lower oceanic heat content as it approaches the Louisiana coast. These less favorable oceanic conditions combined with an increase in southwesterly shear should cause Delta to weaken a little before it moves onshore. Regardless, Delta is forecast to be near major hurricane intensity when it makes landfall and significant impacts are expected (see Key Messages below). After landfall, rapid weakening is anticipated and Delta is forecast to fall below hurricane strength tonight or early Saturday and dissipate in about 3 days. Key Messages: 1. Life-threatening storm surge is expected near and east of where Delta makes landfall this evening, and a Storm Surge Warning is in effect from High Island, Texas, to Ocean Springs, Mississippi. The highest inundation of 7 to 11 feet is expected somewhere between Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge and Morgan City, Louisiana. Residents in the warning area should promptly follow advice given by local officials. The storm surge risk remains high despite the forecast decrease in intensity before landfall since Delta is a relatively large hurricane. 2. Hurricane-force winds are expected this afternoon and evening somewhere within the Hurricane Warning area between High Island, Texas, and Morgan City, Louisiana. Hurricane force winds will also spread inland across portions of southern Louisiana near the path of Deltas center this evening and tonight. 3. Heavy rainfall will lead to significant flash flooding and minor to major river flooding in parts of Louisiana today and Saturday. Additional flooding is expected across portions of the central Gulf Coast into the Lower Mississippi Valley.

Tropical Depression Norbert Forecast Discussion Number 15
2020-10-09 10:38:30| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 300 AM MDT Fri Oct 09 2020 089 WTPZ44 KNHC 090838 TCDEP4 Tropical Depression Norbert Discussion Number 15 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP192020 300 AM MDT Fri Oct 09 2020 Norbert is clearly struggling to remain a tropical depression. The low-level center is exposed in recent satellite imagery, likely due to a combination of east-southeasterly vertical wind shear and dry mid-level air in the surrounding environment. The nearest deep convection is located roughly 50 miles south of the center, and it is very poorly organized. Unfortunately, overnight ASCAT passes missed the center of Norbert, but a partial overpass of the eastern semicircle revealed 20 kt winds. A blend of the UW-CIMSS objective estimate and the TAFB subjective Dvorak estimate supports an intensity of 25 kt, which may be generous given the lack of sustained convection near the cyclone's center. Vertical wind shear is taking its toll on Norbert, and the latest SHIPS guidance suggests the deep-layer shear will increase over the next 24-48 h. Thus, Norbert is unlikely to survive the five-day forecast period. If new convection doesn't develop soon, it could degenerate into a remnant low as early as today. The latest NHC forecast explicitly calls for dissipation by 72 h. Norbert is starting to drift northwestward, and this general motion should continue over the next couple of days as a weak mid-level ridge builds to the northeast of the depression. The NHC track forecast closely follows the consensus aids and remains very close to the previous forecast.

Tropical Depression Norbert Forecast Discussion Number 14
2020-10-09 04:42:25| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 900 PM MDT Thu Oct 08 2020 000 WTPZ44 KNHC 090242 TCDEP4 Tropical Depression Norbert Discussion Number 14 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP192020 900 PM MDT Thu Oct 08 2020 Norbert's satellite presentation has changed little in the past several hours. Intermittent bursts of deep convection continue to pulse near the center, and the depression's asymmetric appearance indicates it is still experiencing southeasterly shear. The initial intensity is held at 25 kt based on a T1.5 Dvorak classification from TAFB and earlier satellite-derived wind data. Environmental conditions are not expected to change much during the next several days. Norbert will remain over warm sea-surface temperatures, but weak to moderate east-southeasterly shear will likely persist over the cyclone. Little intensity change is expected over the next couple of days. The NHC intensity forecast keeps Norbert as a 25-kt tropical depression through the next 60 h, although minor intensity fluctuations are possible. Between 36-72 h, increasing deep-layer shear should expedite Norbert's degeneration into a remnant low, and this advisory calls for Norbert to become a remnant low at 72 h. Norbert has moved little in the past 6-12 h, as the large-scale steering currents remain weak. A weak mid-level ridge is forecast to build to the northeast of the cyclone Friday through Saturday, which should steer Norbert slowly west-northwestward or northwestward. A mid- to upper-level low is expected to move across northern Mexico on Sunday, which could cause Norbert to stall or meander once again if it remains a depression. Later in the forecast period, whatever remains of Norbert should move westward as it becomes embedded within the low-level easterly trades. The latest NHC track forecast is adjusted slightly towards the left of the previous forecast, in line with the latest model consensus.
