Tropical Storm Karina Forecast Discussion Number 12
2020-09-15 22:59:29| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 200 PM PDT Tue Sep 15 2020 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 152059 TCDEP1 Tropical Storm Karina Discussion Number 12 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP162020 Issued by NWS Central Pacific Hurricane Center Honolulu HI 200 PM PDT Tue Sep 15 2020 Latest satellite images show little significant change in the organization of deep convection associated with Karina since the previous advisory. Although the thunderstorms are primarily limited to the southwest semicircle, they remain over the center, and outflow in the northeast semicircle appears somewhat improved in the last couple of hours. A blend of subjective Dvorak current intensity estimates of 3.0/45 kt from SAB/HFO and 3.5/55 kt from TAFB supports maintaining an initial intensity of 50 kt. Karina is crossing the 26C isotherm with an initial motion estimate of 305/10 kt, and much cooler waters lie along the forecast track. Karina is being steered by a mid- and upper-level ridge to the centered to the northeast and north respectively, and the short term forecast anticipates some relaxation of the recent northeasterly shear as Karina rounds the ridges. This should lead to slow weakening in the short term, and as south to southwesterly shear increases after about 24 hours, Karina will continue to weaken. Simulated satellite imagery based on HWRF guidance indicates the cyclone will become convection-free within about 48 hours, with dissipation following soon thereafter. As Karina weakens and becomes increasingly shallow, it will be steered by the low-level northeasterly trade wind flow supplied by a surface high centered to the distant northwest. The updated track forecast lies along the same trajectory as the previous, but is shifted slightly southward due to recent observed motion, and is near the middle of guidance envelope. The intensity forecast is essentially unchanged and closely follows trends presented by SHIPS and FSSE.

Tropical Storm Teddy Forecast Discussion Number 13
2020-09-15 22:39:50| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)
Issued at 500 PM AST Tue Sep 15 2020 000 WTNT45 KNHC 152039 TCDAT5 Tropical Storm Teddy Discussion Number 13 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL202020 500 PM AST Tue Sep 15 2020 Overall, Teddy's organization has continued to slowly improve during the past several hours. AMSR microwave imagery near 1630 UTC showed that a low- to mid-level eye feature is beginning to form. The overall convective pattern has also improved, though not enough to increase the intensity estimates at this time, which only range from 45-55 kt. The intensity is therefore held at 55 kt, but it does appear that some intensification is imminent. The AMSR image showed indications of a microwave signature commonly associated with rapid intensification in favorable environments. Low shear and warm SSTs along the forecast track are certainly conducive, though dry air continues to be a possible limiting factor. The dry air is probably the reason that dry slots continue to occasionally appear in IR imagery near the center of Teddy. Rapid intensification probabilities are not particularly high; the SHIPS RI gives a 22 percent chance of a 30-kt increase during the next 24 h while DTOPS shows a mere 1 percent chance. The rest of the intensity models forecast only modest strengthening for the next couple of days. The NHC intensity forecast is at the top of the intensity guidance for the next 48 h and slightly above all of the models after that, but I am hesitant to lower it any further at this time given the recent microwave signature and overall improvement in Teddy's structure. In contrast, Teddy's track outlook remains straightforward, and no changes of note were made to the official forecast. The tropical storm is turning gradually toward the northwest and should begin moving in that direction tonight. A ridge over the central Atlantic should then steer Teddy in that general direction for the rest of the week. The model spread is still much lower than normal, and confidence in the track forecast is fairly high.

Hurricane Sally Forecast Discussion Number 18
2020-09-15 22:38:43| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)
Issued at 400 PM CDT Tue Sep 15 2020 000 WTNT44 KNHC 152038 TCDAT4 Hurricane Sally Discussion Number 18 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL192020 400 PM CDT Tue Sep 15 2020 Sally has been inching its way toward the north-central Gulf Coast today. The overall structure of the storm has remained about the same during the day with a large ragged eye in apparent in radar imagery. A NOAA P-3 aircraft that has been sampling the storm since late this morning has reported peak flight-level winds of 76 kt, and NWS Doppler radar has shown velocities of 75-80 kt at around 7000 ft. The intensity was reduced to 70 kt on the 1800 UTC intermediate advisory and remains at that value for this advisory. Radar and aircraft fixes show that Sally has been moving very slowly toward the north or 350/2 kt. The track forecast philosophy remains unchanged from the previous advisory. Sally is currently located within an area of weak steering flow between a couple of mid-level ridges to its east and west. A weak mid-level trough over the south-central United States is forecast to slide eastward over the next few days, which should cause Sally to turn north-northeastward and then northeastward over the next 24-36 hours. Sally's forward speed is expected to remain quite slow over the next 24-48 hours, but the guidance has trended slightly faster after that time. The slow forward speed is likely to result in a historical rainfall event for the north-central Gulf Coast. It may sound like a broken record, but the track guidance has again shifted eastward during the first 24-36 hours, and the NHC forecast has been adjusted accordingly. Since Sally has a large wind field, and storm surge and rainfall hazards extend far from the eye, users should not focus on the exact forecast track or specific location and timing of landfall as strong winds and bands of heavy rainfall are already affecting the Gulf Coast and will continue to do so for quite some time. The combination of upwelling and moderate westerly shear is likely to result in little change in strength prior to Sally moving onshore. Once the center of the hurricane moves onshore, rapid weakening is expected and the global models indicate that the circulation will becoming elongated along a frontal boundary in 3 to 4 days. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Historic life-threatening flash flooding due to rainfall is likely through Wednesday along and just inland of the coast from the Florida Panhandle west of the Apalachicola River to far southeastern Mississippi. Widespread moderate to major river flooding is forecast along and just inland of the central Gulf Coast. Significant flash and urban flooding, as well as widespread minor to moderate river flooding, is likely across inland portions of Mississippi and Alabama, and into Georgia and the western Carolinas this week. 2. Life-threatening storm surge is expected along portions of the coastline from Alabama to the western Florida Panhandle, including Mobile Bay. 3. Hurricane conditions are expected this evening and overnight within portions of the Hurricane Warning area along the Mississippi and Alabama coastlines and the western Florida Panhandle.
