Tropical Depression Ten-E Forecast Discussion Number 6
2020-08-14 16:33:00| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 800 AM PDT Fri Aug 14 2020 000 WTPZ45 KNHC 141432 TCDEP5 Tropical Depression Ten-E Discussion Number 6 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP102020 800 AM PDT Fri Aug 14 2020 Since the last advisory, the depression has maintained a small ragged band of convection in its southwest quadrant. Intensity fixes from TAFB, SAB, and UW-CIMSS (both ADT and SATCON) do not indicate that the system has changed appreciably so the intensity remains 30 kt for this advisory. The intensity guidance is generally more bullish on the future of the depression than it has been previously. The COAMPS-TC and GFS now forecast strengthening to occur in a few days, and the latter of those models forms a symmetric CDO with an eye in simulated satellite imagery around day 5. In the short term, strong northeasterly shear should continue to limit the development potential of the cyclone, but upper-level winds could become less hostile in a few days. The main change to the NHC intensity forecast was to maintain the system as a tropical cyclone through day 5 and to show some minimal strengthening near the end of the period, though it is slightly below the intensity consensus. That said, there is perhaps equal probability that the system could become a remnant low before the environmental conditions improve, in which case no increase in the system's winds will likely occur. No significant changes were made to the NHC track forecast. The depression is moving west-southwestward near 5 kt, steered by a low- to mid-level ridge to its north. The global models indicate that the ridge will weaken in a day or two, allowing the system to gain a little latitude. Regardless of its exact heading, only a slow drift is expected through early next week.

Tropical Storm Josephine Forecast Discussion Number 11
2020-08-14 10:36:53| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)
Issued at 500 AM AST Fri Aug 14 2020 000 WTNT41 KNHC 140836 TCDAT1 Tropical Storm Josephine Discussion Number 11 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL112020 500 AM AST Fri Aug 14 2020 As has been the case for the last couple of days, the center of the tropical storm is displaced to the south of the main area of deep convection. Some new convective cells have been forming nearer to the estimated center, but the overall cloud pattern is quite ragged-looking at this time. ASCAT data from a few hours ago indicate that the intensity is near 35 kt, which is consistent with the latest Dvorak estimates from TAFB and SAB. NOAA data buoy 41040 confirmed that the system still has a closed circulation since it reported light westerly winds while the center of Josephine passed to its north. An Air Force Reserve Unit Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate the storm later today. Josephine is beginning to move into an environment of increasing vertical shear associated with a large upper-tropospheric trough over the western Atlantic. Therefore, the window of opportunity for strengthening is closing soon. The official intensity forecast allows for some intensification during the next 24 hours before the upper-level winds become prohibitively strong. However, the NHC forecast is now above most of the model intensity guidance through 72 hours. The storm continues its west-northwestward motion and is moving at about 300/15 kt. Josephine should continue this general motion as it approaches a weakness in the subtropical ridge in 48 hours or so. Then, the cyclone should turn northward and move through the weakness in 3-4 days. Late in the forecast period, Josephine or its remnants are expected to turn north-northeastward while it approaches the higher-latitude westerlies. The official track forecast is essentially the same as the previous one, and also lies close to the latest corrected multi-model consensus. Josephine should pass far enough to the northeast of the Leeward Islands over the weekend to prevent major impacts. However, interests in the area should continue to monitor its progress until the storm has passed north of that area.

Tropical Depression Ten-E Forecast Discussion Number 5
2020-08-14 10:35:23| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 200 AM PDT Fri Aug 14 2020 120 WTPZ45 KNHC 140835 TCDEP5 Tropical Depression Ten-E Discussion Number 5 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP102020 200 AM PDT Fri Aug 14 2020 The circulation of the depression was devoid of deep convection for several hours tonight and just recently new convection has begun to develop near the center. Although the Dvorak data T-numbers continue to decrease, a recent ASCAT overpass revealed there were several wind vectors supporting keeping the initial intensity at 30 kt. The ASCAT ambiguities from the overpass suggest that the low may be starting to become less well-defined, and if deep convection cannot persist for an appreciable amount of time, the system may open into a trough embedded in the Intertropical Convergence Zone. The current environment consisting of moderate northeasterly shear, modest moisture, and some subsidence is not expected to change all that much over the next few days. None of the intensity guidance except for the SHIPS makes the system a tropical storm. However, the simulated satellite imagery from various models do suggest that intermittent convection should continue to develop near the center in the near-term, which could provide enough vortex spin-up to keep the system a depression for a little while. The official intensity forecast is unchanged from the previous one, but it should be reiterated that the system could dissipate or degenerate to a convection-free remnant low at any time. The depression is now moving just south of west at 4 kt and is being steered by a low-level ridge to its northwest. This ridge is forecast to remain in place for the next couple of days. Over the weekend, the ridge is forecast to weaken, and with the loss of steering flow, the depression may begin to drift generally northwestward. The latest NHC forecast is little changed from the previous one and is also near the TVCE/TVCX consensus aids.
