Issued at 500 PM EDT Tue Jul 10 2018 900 WTNT33 KNHC 102053 TCPAT3 BULLETIN Hurricane Chris Advisory Number 17 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL032018 500 PM EDT Tue Jul 10 2018 ...CHRIS FINALLY BECOMES A HURRICANE WHILE MOVING AWAY FROM THE UNITED STATES... SUMMARY OF 500 PM EDT...2100 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...33.7N 72.4W ABOUT 205 MI...330 KM ESE OF CAPE HATTERAS NORTH CAROLINA MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...85 MPH...140 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...NE OR 50 DEGREES AT 10 MPH...17 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...980 MB...28.94 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. Interests along the coast of North Carolina and in Atlantic Canada should monitor the progress of Hurricane Chris. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 500 PM EDT (2100 UTC), the center of Hurricane Chris was located near latitude 33.7 North, longitude 72.4 West. Chris is moving toward the northeast near 10 mph (17 km/h). A continued northeastward motion accompanied by a steady increase in forward speed is expected through Thursday night. Reports from an Air Force Reserve hurricane hunter aircraft indicate that maximum sustained winds have increased to near 85 mph (140 km/h) with higher gusts. Some additional strengthening is forecast tonight and Wednesday. Chris is forecast to begin weakening by Thursday, and become a strong post-tropical cyclone by Thursday night or early Friday. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 15 miles (30 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles (150 km). The minimum central pressure recently measured by the reconnaissance aircraft was 980 mb (28.94 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Swells generated by Hurricane Chris are expected to increase and affect portions of the coasts of North Carolina and the mid-Atlantic states during the next few days. These swells could cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 1100 PM EDT. $$ Forecaster Stewart

Tropical Storm Chris Forecast Discussion Number 16

2018-07-10 16:53:03| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 1100 AM EDT Tue Jul 10 2018 034 WTNT43 KNHC 101452 TCDAT3 Tropical Storm Chris Discussion Number 16 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL032018 1100 AM EDT Tue Jul 10 2018 During the past 6 hours, Chris has developed a well-defined eye in both satellite and radar imagery at times, with a diameter that has varied in size from 30 nmi to the present 20 nmi. The overall convective pattern has also become more symmetrical with well-established outflow present in all quadrants. Satellite intensity estimates are T3.5/55 kt from TAFB, and T4.0/65 kt from SAB and UW-CIMSS ADT, and Chris certainly has the satellite appearance of being a hurricane. However, the intensity is being maintained at 60 kt for this advisory due to significant cold upwelling that has occurred beneath the cyclone when Chris was moving slowly during the previous 48 hours. The colder waters have likely stabilized the boundary layer, which has inhibited stronger winds aloft from mixing down to the surface. The cold upwelling is supported by sea-surface temperature (SST) data from nearby NOAA Buoy 41002, which has shown 6 deg F of cooling during the past 48 hours, and is currently sitting at 76F. An Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft is scheduled to investigate Chris this afternoon to provide a better intensity estimate. Recent satellite and radar fixes indicate that Chris is finally moving northeastward at a faster forward speed, and the initial motion estimate is now 050/08 kt. The narrow subtropical ridge to the southeast of the cyclone is getting pushed northward by the remnants of Beryl, which has helped to finally nudge Chris toward the northeast. A further increase in forward speed is expected as a strong deep-layer trough digs southeastward along the U.S. east coast, accelerating the cyclone at forward speeds of 25-30 kt by 48 hours and beyond. Chris is forecast to pass well southeast of Nova Scotia in a couple of days, and move near or over southeastern Newfoundland in about 60 hours. The NHC track guidance remains in good agreement on the evolving steering flow regime, but there continues to be some pronounced speed differences. The new NHC track forecast is similar to the previous advisory, and lies close to the consensus models HCCA, FSSE, and TVCN. My best estimate, based on the data from Buoy 41002, is that significant upwelling likely occurred within the 30-kt wind radii while Chris was nearly stationary. Assuming that that is the case, then Chris will be moving over warmer waters shortly, which should allow for an increase in convection to occur and also for winds aloft to better mix downward to the surface. The vertical wind shear is forecast to remain modest at 10-15 kt for the next 24 hours, so gradual intensification is expected during that time. By 48 hours, Chris will have crossed over the north wall of the Gulfstream and be moving over SSTs colder than 20 deg C, which will combine with strong southwesterly wind shear, and cause Chris to rapidly transition to an extratropical cyclone. The official intensity forecast follows the FSSE intensity model through 36 hours, and then shows more significant weakening after that, similar to the SHIPS, LGEM, and HCCA models.
