SUMMARY OF 1200 PM MDT...1800 UTC...INFORMATION ----------------------------------------------- LOCATION...16.8N 108.2W ABOUT 455 MI...735 KM SSW OF MAZATLAN MEXICO ABOUT 435 MI...700 KM SSE OF THE SOUTHERN TIP OF BAJA CALIFORNIA MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...70 MPH...110 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...NW OR 320 DEGREES AT 6 MPH...9 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...992 MB...29.29 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY: None. SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Hurricane Watch is in effect for... * Bahia Tempehuaya to Escuinapa A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for... * North of Bahia Tempehuaya to Altata * South of Escuinapa to San Blas * Isla Marias * Los Barilles to Cabo San Lucas A Hurricane Warning and a Tropical Storm Warning will likely be required tonight for portions of the current Watch areas by this afternoon or evening. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1200 PM MDT (1800 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Pamela was located near latitude 16.8 North, longitude 108.2 West. Pamela is moving toward the northwest near 6 mph (9 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue today. A turn toward the north is forecast to occur tonight into Tuesday, followed by a faster northeastward motion by Tuesday night. On the forecast track, Pamela will pass south of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula Tuesday night or early Wednesday and make landfall on west-central mainland Mexico Wednesday morning. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 70 mph (110 km/h) with higher gusts. Steady to rapid strengthening is forecast, and Pamela is expected to become a hurricane by tonight and a major hurricane on Tuesday. Pamela is forecast remain a major hurricane until it reaches the coast of Mexico on Wednesday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 992 mb (29.29 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Hurricane conditions are possible within the Hurricane Watch area by late Tuesday, with tropical storm conditions possible by Tuesday afternoon. Tropical storm conditions are possible within the Tropical Storm Watch areas by Tuesday afternoon. RAINFALL: Pamela is expected to produce the following rainfall amounts through Wednesday: Across the Mexican States of Sinaloa and western Durango... 4 to 8 inches with isolated maximum totals of 12 inches. This rainfall may trigger significant and life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides. Across southern portions of Baja California Sur... 2 to 4 inches with isolated maximum totals of 6 inches. SURF: Pamela is expected to generate swells that will affect portions of the southern Baja California peninsula and southwestern and west-central mainland Mexico by late Tuesday. 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 300 PM MDT. $$ Forecaster Stewart

Tropical Storm Pamela Forecast Discussion Number 6
2021-10-11 17:13:22| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 900 AM MDT Mon Oct 11 2021 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 111513 CCA TCDEP1 Tropical Storm Pamela Discussion Number 6...Corrected NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP162021 900 AM MDT Mon Oct 11 2021 Corrected to update Key Messages Pamela's convective pattern has undergone a pronounced bursting phase since the previous advisory, including significant lightning activity in the inner-core region near the center, with formation of a Central Dense Overcast (CDO) now evident. However, the lightning ceased about 5 h ago and the CDO has recently become a little disheveled looking along with pronounced warming of the cloud tops compared to the much colder cloud tops colder than -85C just a few hours ago. The advisory intensity has been increased to 55 kt based on an average of satellite intensity estimates of T4.0/65 from TAFB, T3.0/45 kt from SAB, and T3.5/55 kt from UW-CIMSS ADT. Pamela has slowed down significantly since the previous advisory, and the motion estimate is now northwestward or 320/07 kt. A northwestward motion should continue today as Pamela approaches an east-to-west-oriented subtropical ridge axis situated along 19-20N latitude. By late tonight, the storm is forecast to turn slowly northward, followed by a motion toward the northeast at a faster forward speed by Tuesday night. As Pamela gets caught up in the moderate southwesterly flow between the subtropical ridge to its south and an approaching mid-latitude trough to the northwest, the cyclone should continue to accelerate northeastward on Wednesday until Pamela makes landfall along the southwest coast of Mexico. The new NHC forecast track is a tad to the right of and slightly faster than the previous advisory track, and close to the middle of the tightly packed simple- and corrected-consensus track model envelope. The recent disruption in Pamela's convective pattern has likely been due the cyclone having entrained a slug of dry air. However, this convective hiatus will likely be short-lived due to the robust inner-core wind field noted in earlier ASCAT wind data, which should allow for Pamela to mix out any dry air. Moderate northerly shear is forecast to subside over the next 24 hours, giving way to the development of an upper-level anticyclone over the storm, along with an impressive outflow pattern developing in the northern semicircle. The combination of a tight inner-core wind field, low vertical shear, very warm sea-surface temperatures, and a moist mid-level environment should allow for Pamela to rapid intensify for the next 36 hours -- possibly even right up until Pamela reaches the coast of Mexico. The latest official intensity forecast is very similar to the previous advisory, and is an average of the consensus intensity models IVCN and NOAA-HCCA, an remains at the high end of the intensity guidance. Pamela is expected to become a dangerous major hurricane prior to landfall. After inland occurs, rapid weakening is expected as the storm moves over the rugged terrain of west-central Mexico. However, higher elevations could still receive tropical-storm force winds after Pamela moves well inland. An Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate Pamela Tuesday late morning and early afternoon. Key Messages: 1. Pamela is forecast to be a major hurricane when it reaches the coast of west-central mainland Mexico on Wednesday, and life-threatening storm surge and dangerous hurricane-force winds are possible within the Hurricane Watch area. Residents in this area should monitor the progress of Pamela and follow any advice given by local officials. 2. Pamela is expected to pass near or south of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula as a hurricane Tuesday night and early Wednesday, and tropical-storm conditions are possible within the Tropical storm Watch area. 3. Heavy rains associated with Pamela are expected to move into the Mexican States of Sinaloa and western Durgano along with southern portions of Baja California Sur Tuesday and Wednesday. This will pose a threat of significant and life-threatening flash flooding and mudslides.

Residents in this area should monitor the progress of this system and ensure they have their hurricane plan in place. Hurricane watches will likely be required later this morning. 2. Pamela is expected to pass near or south of the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula as a hurricane Tuesday night or early Wednesday, and could bring strong winds to the extreme southern portion of the peninsula. Watches could be required for portions of this area later today. 3. Heavy rains associated with Pamela are expected to move into the Mexican States of Sinaloa and western Durgano along with southern portions of Baja California Sur Tuesday and Wednesday.
