Tropical Storm Zeta Public Advisory Number 3A

2020-10-25 12:58:03| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 800 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2020 000 WTNT33 KNHC 251157 TCPAT3 BULLETIN Tropical Storm Zeta Intermediate Advisory Number 3A NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL282020 800 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2020 ...HURRICANE WATCH ISSUED FOR PORTIONS OF THE YUCATAN PENINSULA... SUMMARY OF 800 AM EDT...1200 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...17.8N 83.8W ABOUT 290 MI...470 KM SSE OF THE WESTERN TIP OF CUBA ABOUT 275 MI...445 KM SE OF COZUMEL MEXICO MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...40 MPH...65 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...N OR 360 DEGREES AT 0 MPH...0 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1005 MB...29.68 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY: The government of Mexico has issued a Hurricane Watch for the Yucatan Peninsula from Tulum to Rio Lagartos, including Cozumel. SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Hurricane Watch is in effect for... * Tulum to Rio Lagartos Mexico * Cozumel A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for... * Pinar del Rio Cuba A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possible within the watch area. A watch is typically issued 48 hours before the anticipated first occurrence of tropical-storm-force winds, conditions that make outside preparations difficult or dangerous. A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area within 36 hours. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 800 AM EDT (1200 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Zeta was located by a NOAA Hurricane Hunter aircraft near latitude 17.8 North, longitude 83.8 West. Zeta is nearly stationary, but a slow generally northwestward motion is expected later today. A turn toward the west-northwest and an increase in forward speed are forecast by Monday, followed by a faster northwestward motion on Tuesday. On the forecast track, the center of Zeta will pass south of western Cuba early Monday and move near or over the northern Yucatan Peninsula or the Yucatan Channel late Monday, move into the southern Gulf of Mexico on Tuesday, and reach the central Gulf of Mexico by late Tuesday. Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual strengthening is expected during the next 48 to 72 hours, and Zeta is forecast to become a hurricane by late Monday or early Tuesday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 80 miles (130 km), mainly southeast of the center. The minimum central pressure reported by the Hurricane Hunters is 1005 mb (29.68 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Tropical Storm Zeta can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT3 and WMO header WTNT43 KNHC. RAINFALL: Heavy rainfall bands will be expansive along and east-northeast of Zetas track. Across portions of central and western Cuba, the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, the northeast Yucatan peninsula of Mexico, Southern Florida and the Keys, storm total rainfall of 4 to 8 inches with local amounts of 12 inches are possible through Wednesday. By Wednesday, heavy rainfall associated with Zeta will begin to affect the central Gulf Coast region, which may lead to flash flooding in urban areas. WIND: Hurricane conditions are possible within the Hurricane Watch area in the Yucatan Peninsula by late Monday. Tropical storm conditions are expected within the warning area in Cuba by Monday morning. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 1100 AM EDT. $$ Forecaster Pasch

Tropical Storm Zeta Forecast Discussion Number 3

2020-10-25 10:01:08| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 500 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2020 000 WTNT43 KNHC 250900 TCDAT3 Tropical Storm Zeta Discussion Number 3 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL282020 500 AM EDT Sun Oct 25 2020 Earlier this morning, the tropical cyclone located over the northwestern Caribbean Sea was upgraded to Tropical Storm Zeta at 0600 UTC based on 0314Z ASCAT surface wind data of 32-33 kt located southeast of the broad center. Since then, a NOAA reconnaissance aircraft has been investigating Zeta and has found maximum 925-mb flight-level winds of about 40 kt and reliable SFMR surface winds of 33-36 kt. Recent satellite classifications from TAFB, SAB, and UW-CIMSS are 35 kt. Based on these data, the initial intensity is set at 35 kt. The initial motion estimate is stationary. Although Zeta has been steadily losing latitude during the past 12 hours, this has been primarily due to the broad low-level center reforming closer to the very intense convection located in the southern semicircle of the cyclone's large circulation. Satellite trends over the past 6 hours indicate that a mid-level circulation located about 90 nmi east of the low-level center is likely imparting a weak southerly component of motion on Zeta as well. Over the course of the next 72 hours, a weak shortwave trough currently located over the southeastern U.S. from the Tennessee Valley southward into the north-central Gulf of Mexico will continue to move eastward, allowing a low- to mid-level ridge to steadily build westward across the Bahamas, Florida, and the central Gulf of Mexico. This will gradually force Zeta on a northwestward track across or near the northeastern tip of the Yucatan Peninsula in about 48 h and into the central Gulf of Mexico by 72 h. The latest NHC model guidance is in very agreement on this developing 3-day track scenario. Thereafter, however, the models diverge fairly significantly due to uncertainty in the evolution of the next steering mechanism -- a trough over the northwestern U.S. that will dig southward and phase up/merge with a trough off the southern California and Baja California coasts. Phasing of northern and southern stream systems is always difficult to forecast, especially when one of those systems is outside the U.S. upper-air observing system like the system currently is off southern California. After the two systems phase in about 48 hours, a powerful mid/upper-level low is forecast to form by 72 h and eject eastward out of the southwestern U.S., causing the ridge over the Gulf of Mexico to erode eastward. This will allow Zeta to turn northward and then northeastward toward the north-central Gulf coast. The global models remain in poor agreement on the details of the timing of the eastward movement of the upper-low, resulting in model solutions ranging from Louisiana (ECMWF-UKMET-FSSE) to the Florida Panhandle (HWRF-HMON). The new NHC track forecast is a little left of the previous advisory track through 72 hours, and lies near the middle of the guidance envelope, close to the HCCA and TVCA multi-model consensus. However, given the current lack of motion of the system and the large model spread late in the period, the details of the track forecast are more uncertain than usual. Although the low- and mid-level circulations remain unaligned, the overall environment for the next 60-72 hours is expected to remain conducive for at least gradual intensification. After 72 hours, however, the deep-layer vertical wind shear is expected to increase while Zeta moves over cooler SSTs near the northern Gulf Coast, which should result in weakening before the cyclone moves inland. The new NHC intensity forecast is a tad higher than the previous advisory, and lies near the upper end of the intensity guidance. While the current NHC forecast indicates that the system should weaken below hurricane strength before landfall, users are reminded that strong tropical storms can still produce significant storm surge, rainfall, and wind impacts along the northern Gulf Coast. The cyclone should be absorbed into a frontal system by the end of the forecast period. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Zeta is expected to produce tropical storm conditions over extreme western Cuba on Monday. Tropical storm conditions are possible in the northern Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico Monday night and early Tuesday. 2. Through Wednesday, heavy rainfall is expected from Tropical Storm Zeta across portions of central and western Cuba, the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, the northeast Yucatan peninsula of Mexico, Southern Florida and the Keys. This rainfall may lead to flash flooding in urban areas. 3. Zeta is forecast to approach the northern Gulf Coast as a tropical storm Tuesday night and Wednesday, and could bring storm surge, rainfall, and wind impacts to areas from Louisiana to the Florida Panhandle. Residents in these areas should monitor the progress of Zeta and updates to the forecast.
