Tropical Storm Marie Forecast Discussion Number 4
2020-09-30 04:35:27| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 900 PM MDT Tue Sep 29 2020 000 WTPZ43 KNHC 300235 TCDEP3 Tropical Storm Marie Discussion Number 4 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP182020 900 PM MDT Tue Sep 29 2020 Infrared and passive microwave imagery indicate that Marie has continued to become better organized despite moderate northeasterly vertical wind shear of about 15 kt. The deep convection is now primarily confined to a single tightly curved band that wraps around the west side of the circulation. A late-arriving 29/1718Z ASCAT-C scatterometer pass revealed that Marie has a very tight inner-core circulation with a radius of maximum winds (RMW) of only 10-15 nmi and a small 34-kt wind radii extending outward to only about 20 nmi The scatterometer data also showed some 34-38 kt surface wind vectors in all quadrants. A blend of the scatterometer wind data and subjective Dvorak intensity estimates of of T2.5/35 kt and T3.0/45 kt from SAB and TAFB, respectively, the intensity has been increased to 40 kt. The initial motion estimate is 275/11 kt. As mentioned in the previous discussion, Marie's forecast track remains fairly straightforward. The cyclone is expected to move generally westward to west-northwestward for the next few days as it skirts the southern periphery of a deep-layer ridge to the north. Thereafter, a slower motion toward the northwest is forecast as Marie moves into a weakness in the ridge. The new NHC track forecast is similar to but a little to the left of the previous advisory track, and lies down the middle of the tightly packed consensus track model guidance envelope. Although the GFS- and ECMWF-based SHIPS intensity models have backed off significantly on predicting rapid intensification (RI) on this cycle, several environmental and cyclone structural parameters are still favorable for RI to occur. For about the next 72 hours, sea-surface temperatures (SST) are forecast to remain above 28C, alone with mid-level humidity values above 70 prevent and low wind shear values around 5 kt. Those environmental conditions coupled with Marie's small RMW should result in RI beginning in about 24 hours and continuing until the 60-h time period. As result, Marie is forecast to strengthen into a hurricane in about 24 hours and possibly become a major hurricane in 60-72 hours. Rapid weakening is expected on days 4 and 5 due to SSTs less than 26C, likely significant cold upwelling owing to Marie's expected large and strong wind field, and increasing southwesterly vertical shear of 20-25 kt. The NHC official intensity forecast is similar to the previous advisory, and closely follows a blend of the Decay-SHIPS and LGEM statistical models and the corrected-consensus HCCA model. Marie's 12-ft sea radii remain larger than would be expected for a small tropical storm due to a large fetch of southerly swell originating from the Southern Hemisphere.

Tropical Storm Marie Forecast Discussion Number 3
2020-09-29 22:33:58| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 300 PM MDT Tue Sep 29 2020 000 WTPZ43 KNHC 292033 TCDEP3 Tropical Storm Marie Discussion Number 3 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP182020 300 PM MDT Tue Sep 29 2020 A WindSat microwave image from earlier this morning indicated that the tropical cyclone's low-level circulation was becoming better defined, with perhaps the formative stage of a cyan ring seen in the 37-GHz channel. Visible images also show the center tucked just beneath recent bursts of deep convection, and Dvorak estimates have risen to T2.0 and T2.5 from TAFB and SAB, respectively. These data, along with ambiguity analyses of recent ASCAT-B and -C scatterometer passes, indicate the depression has strengthened to Tropical Storm Marie with maximum winds of 35 kt. Marie's future track is probably the most straightforward part of the forecast. A mid-tropospheric high anchored over the southwestern United States is steering Marie westward with an initial motion of 275/10 kt. This high will remain the main driver, forcing the cyclone westward or west-northwestward for the next 3 days. By days 4 and 5, Marie is likely to reach a break in the ridge and should slow down a bit and turn toward the northwest. There are no notable outliers among the track guidance, and the small spread among the models yields higher-than-normal confidence in the track forecast. The new NHC forecast is very similar to the previous prediction, and is close to the TVCE and HCCA consensus aids. The intensity forecast is a little more challenging, but mostly because a good proportion of the guidance suggests that Marie will intensify significantly during the next few days. Relatively low deep-layer shear, warm ocean waters, and favorable upper-level divergence all favor strengthening, and several of the various SHIPS Rapid Intensification thresholds are several times higher than their climatological means. In addition, all of the dynamical models, the consensus aids, and the GFS-based SHIPS model bring Marie to hurricane strength within 24 hours. Given these signals, the NHC intensity forecast has been raised from the previous one and lies near or just below the intensity consensus in order to maintain some continuity. But given what is shown by some of the better-performing intensity models, I would not be surprised if subsequent forecasts show a faster rate of intensification or a higher peak intensity. Weakening is expected by days 4 and 5 due to cooler waters and increasing southwesterly shear. Marie's 12-ft sea radii are larger than would be expected for a small, just-developing tropical storm due to a large fetch of southerly swell originating from the Southern Hemisphere.
