Hurricane ANDRES Forecast Discussion Number 20
2015-06-02 04:34:27| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 800 PM PDT MON JUN 01 2015 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 020234 TCDEP1 HURRICANE ANDRES DISCUSSION NUMBER 20 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP012015 800 PM PDT MON JUN 01 2015 Satellite imagery shows that the coverage and intensity of central deep convection are gradually decreasing, especially over the northwest quadrant of the cyclone. In addition, the eye has become much less apparent. The initial wind speed is set at 100 kt, which is a blend of Dvorak T- and Current Intensity numbers. Andres will soon be crossing the 26 deg C SST isotherm while continuing to interact with a drier and more stable air mass. These environmental factors should cause continued weakening, and the cyclone is likely to drop below hurricane strength within 36 hours or less. The NHC wind forecast closely follows the intensity model consensus. Andres is forecast to degenerate into a remnant low in 96 hours, but some of the guidance indicates that this event will occur sooner than that. After jogging to the left earlier today, Andres has now jogged to the right. Smoothing out the jogs yields an initial motion of 300/7 kt. The mid-level ridge to the north of the tropical cyclone is forecast to gradually break down over the next couple of days, and this should induce Andres to turn toward the northwest and north. Afterwards, a mid-level trough digs over the cyclone, but Andres should have become a shallower system and be steered slowly eastward by the weaker lower-level flow. The official forecast is very close to the latest Florida State University Superensemble track through 48 hours and close to the multi-model consensus after that.

Hurricane ANDRES Forecast Discussion Number 18
2015-06-01 16:52:54| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 800 AM PDT MON JUN 01 2015 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 011452 TCDEP1 HURRICANE ANDRES DISCUSSION NUMBER 18 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP012015 800 AM PDT MON JUN 01 2015 Enhanced infrared B-D curve imagery indicates that the eye temperature has cooled considerably this morning to about 7 Celsius, which results in a decrease of the subjective satellite intensity estimates to T6.0 (115 kt). Based on a compromise of these estimates and the objective data-T of 6.7 (132kt), the initial intensity is lowered slightly to 120 kt. Earlier IR satellite imagery showed that Andres peaked around 0900 UTC at an estimated 130 kt and it now appears that the expected weakening trend has begun, likely due to the intruding stable atmospheric marine layer from the northwest. Andres should be moving over cooler waters during the next 24 hours, which should result in a more rapid rate of weakening. The aforementioned stable air mass, cooler water, and increasing southwesterly shear by day 3, should cause the cyclone to become a tropical storm in 48 hours, and a remnant low in 96 hours or less. The hurricane has made its expected turn toward the west-northwest and is now moving at 285/5kt. Andres is forecast to turn toward the northwest in about 48 hours as the subtropical ridge begins to weaken with the approach of a deep-layer mid-latitude trough from the northwest. By day 3, the approaching trough is expected to result in a gradual turn toward the north and northeast but with a significant reduction is forward speed because of the sheared, shallow structure of the cyclone. The official forecast is similar to the previous advisory and is close to the GFS/ECMWF consensus, GFEX.
