Tropical Storm GEORGETTE Forecast Discussion Number 4
2016-07-22 16:56:48| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 800 AM PDT FRI JUL 22 2016 000 WTPZ43 KNHC 221456 TCDEP3 TROPICAL STORM GEORGETTE DISCUSSION NUMBER 4 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP082016 800 AM PDT FRI JUL 22 2016 The satellite presentation of the cyclone has improved during the past few hours, with an increase in deep convection in a developing CDO and a large but fractured convective band in the western semicircle. The initial intensity is set to 40 kt based on a blend of the latest Dvorak estimates of 45 kt from TAFB and 35 kt from SAB. A 0931Z GPM pass showed that some inner-core structure has developed, but moderate easterly shear is forecast to persist for the next couple of days. This envirionment should allow for steady strengthening while the storm moves over SSTs above 28C. SSTs cool below 26C after 72 hours, which suggests slow weakening late in the period. The new NHC intensity forecast has been adjusted upward given the initial intensity but keeps the same peak intensity. This forecast is above the intensity consensus and near the latest SHIPS and LGEM predictions through 5 days. The initial motion estimate is 295/11 and Georgette should be steered west-northwestward by the east Pacific subtropical ridge for the next 2 to 3 days. Later in the forecast period the ridge shifts westward, which should cause a decrease in forward speed and a bend in the track toward the northwest. The track model guidance is in generally good agreement on this scenario. The new NHC track forecast is along the previous one but is a little faster, and is close to the latest multi-model consensus. The formation of Georgette as the seventh named storm in the basin this month ties the July record for the most named storm formations, which was set in 1985.

Post-Tropical Cyclone ESTELLE Forecast Discussion Number 29
2016-07-22 16:50:53| National Hurricane Center (East Pacific)
Issued at 800 AM PDT FRI JUL 22 2016 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 221450 TCDEP1 POST-TROPICAL CYCLONE ESTELLE DISCUSSION NUMBER 29 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP062016 800 AM PDT FRI JUL 22 2016 Estelle has been lacking any deep convection for about 15 hours, and is now designated a post-tropical cyclone. The initial intensity is held at 35 kt based on the earlier ASCAT data and the latest Dvorak CI estimate from TAFB based on weakening rules. The cyclone should gradually spin down over the next couple of days as it moves over cool waters and dissipate in 48 to 72 hours. Estelle is moving toward the west-northwest at 14 kt, and this motion should continue until dissipation as the cyclone is steered by the subtropical ridge centered well to its northeast.

Tropical Storm ESTELLE Forecast Discussion Number 28

Issued at 200 AM PDT FRI JUL 22 2016 000 WTPZ41 KNHC 220836 TCDEP1 TROPICAL STORM ESTELLE DISCUSSION NUMBER 28 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP062016 200 AM PDT FRI JUL 22 2016 Estelle has been devoid of deep convection since 0000 UTC. The circulation, however, is still vigorous. Based on continuity and a recent ASCAT-B pass over the cyclone, the initial intensity has been adjusted to 35 kt. Since the cyclone is moving over increasingly cooler waters, additional weakening is forecast, and Estelle will likely degenerate into a remnant low today, and probably will dissipate during the weekend. I would not be surprised if the system generates sporadic bursts of thunderstorms during the next day or so. Estelle is moving toward the west-northwest or 295 degrees at 14 kt. The cyclone is expected to continue on this general track steered by the flow around the subtropical ridge until dissipation.
