DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 700 PM PST (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Polo was located near latitude 16.9 North, longitude 118.3 West. Polo is moving toward the west-northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h). A turn toward the west is expected later tonight or on Thursday, with this motion continuing through Friday. Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual weakening is expected to begin later tonight or on Thursday, and Polo is expected to decay to a remnant low pressure area on Friday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches).

Tropical Storm Polo Forecast Discussion Number 6

Issued at 700 PM PST Wed Nov 18 2020 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 190234 TCDEP1 Tropical Storm Polo Discussion Number 6 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP212020 700 PM PST Wed Nov 18 2020 Satellite imagery shows that the convection associated with Polo has diminished this evening, with the remaining convection now to the east of the exposed low-level center. The initial intensity is held at a possibly generous 35 kt as a blend of subjective and objective satellite intensity estimates. Polo is moving into an environment of moderate westerly shear, a dryer air mass, and decreasing sea surface temperatures, and the system should gradually weaken during the next 48 h. The new intensity forecast has minor adjustments from the previous forecast, and it calls for Polo to degenerate to a remnant low by 36 h and dissipate by 60 h. The initial motion is 285/11. A low-level ridge to the north of the cyclone should steer the system generally westward until it dissipates. and the new track forecast is an update of the previous forecast.

Tropical Storm Polo Forecast Discussion Number 5
2020-11-18 21:33:27| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 100 PM PST Wed Nov 18 2020 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 182033 TCDEP1 Tropical Storm Polo Discussion Number 5 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP212020 100 PM PST Wed Nov 18 2020 While the cloud pattern was fairly well organized this morning, Polo provided a little surprise when the center popped out of the central dense overcast. The system has since developed deep convection near the center, so perhaps this was a temporary fluctuation but reflects marginal environmental conditions. The initial wind speed is kept at 40 kt as a blend of the satellite data, and unfortunately scatterometer data missed again for a more certain estimate. Polo probably will peak in intensity during the next 12 hours or so before a combination of higher shear and dry/stable air causes the storm to weaken and eventually become a remnant low on Friday. No significant changes were made to the intensity forecast, and there were no meaningful model outliers from the NHC prediction. At least the exposed center allowed for a more precise initial motion estimate, though it ended up about the same as before 285/10. Model guidance is tightly clustered on the storm turning westward tomorrow while it remains to the south of a low- to mid-level ridge. The small cyclone will likely decay into a trough of low pressure by the weekend. Only cosmetic changes were made to the last forecast, which continues to lie near or just south of the model consensus.
