Tropical Storm Don Forecast Discussion Number 2

2017-07-18 04:36:39| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 1100 PM AST Mon Jul 17 2017 000 WTNT45 KNHC 180236 TCDAT5 Tropical Storm Don Discussion Number 2 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052017 1100 PM AST Mon Jul 17 2017 Before completing its mission in Don, the Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft twice measured reliable surface winds around 40 kt via the SFMR instrument, and that is set as the initial intensity for this advisory. A burst of deep convection which began just after 2000 UTC has persisted for the past several hours, and small clusters of lightning have periodically occurred near the estimated center. Don is embedded within a narrow east-west zone of low shear, and that shear is expected to remain low for another 24 hours or so. Since the cyclone has a compact circulation, significant changes in intensity--both up and down--become more likely. Therefore, given that the environment looks favorable for the next 24 hours, the new NHC intensity forecast shows strengthening up to 50 kt as Don approaches the Windward Islands. After 24 hours, increasing westerly shear should induce weakening while Don moves through the southeastern Caribbean Sea, and the cyclone is expected to degenerate into an open wave by 72 hours, if not sooner. Since model guidance varies widely between only showing an open wave (most of the global models) to Don reaching hurricane strength (HWRF and some of the statistical models), it cannot be stressed enough that confidence in the intensity forecast is very low at this time. Don's initial motion is 280/16 kt. There is also a bit of uncertainty in the track forecast, especially in Don's future forward speed, since most of the global models don't show a strong enough vortex to provide a tracker. However, the general trend is for Don to move just north of due west and speed up by 24 hours. The updated NHC track forecast is a little faster than the previous forecast after 24 hours, mainly based on the latest GFS and ECMWF global model fields.

On the forecast track, the center of Don will move across the Windward Islands late Tuesday and then westward across the southeastern Caribbean Sea on Wednesday. Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Some strengthening is possible through Tuesday while Don approaches the Windward Islands. Weakening is expected on Wednesday when Don moves through the southeastern Caribbean Sea. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 25 miles (35 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1009 mb (29.80 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected in the warning area by late Tuesday and Tuesday night.
