Hurricane NICOLE Forecast Discussion Number 38

2016-10-13 16:55:45| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 1100 AM AST THU OCT 13 2016 000 WTNT45 KNHC 131455 TCDAT5 HURRICANE NICOLE DISCUSSION NUMBER 38 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL152016 1100 AM AST THU OCT 13 2016 Southwesterly shear is beginning to affect Nicole. Microwave imagery and Bermuda radar indicate that the eye has lost some definition and become open to the south. There is also a significant southwest to northeast tilt between the low-level center as noted between the radar and satellite presentations of the eye, and the Air Force center fix that was located near the extreme western part of the eye seen in satellite imagery. The Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft has not yet sampled the eastern portion of the eyewall where the strongest winds were reported overnight, however, they have reported a minimum pressure 961 mb, which is up several millibars since the previous fix. Based on the most recent aircraft data and satellite intensity estimates, the initial wind speed has been set at 105 kt for this advisory. Although the area of strongest winds in the eastern eyewall are expected to remain offshore of Bermuda, sustained hurricane-force winds have been reported on the island during the past couple of hours. The official observing site at the airport has measured sustained winds of 67 kt with a gust to 90 kt within the past hour. Increasingly southwesterly shear and slightly lower sea surface temperatures along the forecast track of Nicole should cause a gradual decrease in intensity during the next 24 to 36 hours. After that time, baroclinic forcing is forecast by the global models to keep Nicole an intense low pressure area over the north Atlantic through early next week. The days 3-5 intensity forecast is in agreement with guidance provided by the NOAA Ocean Prediction Center. Nicole has turned northeastward as expected. The hurricane will move northeastward with some acceleration in forward speed as it becomes embedded within southwesterly flow ahead of a mid-latitude trough. The trough is forecast to bypass Nicole in a couple of days, which is expected to cause the cyclone to slow down and meander well southeast of Newfoundland late in the forecast period. The track guidance is in remarkably good agreement, and the NHC is again near the multi-model consensus.

SUMMARY OF 1100 AM AST...1500 UTC...INFORMATION ----------------------------------------------- LOCATION...32.3N 64.6W ABOUT 10 MI...20 KM E OF BERMUDA MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...120 MPH...195 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...NE OR 35 DEGREES AT 16 MPH...26 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...961 MB...28.38 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY: None. SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Hurricane Warning is in effect for... * Bermuda For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK ------------------------------ At 1100 AM AST (1500 UTC), the center of Hurricane Nicole was located near latitude 32.3 North, longitude 64.6 West. Nicole is moving toward the northeast near 16 mph (26 km/h). A northeastward motion at a faster forward speed is expected during the next day or so. On the forecast track, the center of Nicole will move away from Bermuda this afternoon. Maximum sustained winds are near 120 mph (195 km/h) with higher gusts. Nicole is a category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Gradual weakening is forecast during the next couple of days. Nicole is a large hurricane. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 185 miles (295 km). An automated surface station on Pearl Island in Bermuda measured sustained winds of 87 mph (141 km/h) with a gust to 119 mph (191 km/h). The latest minimum central pressure reported by reconnaissance aircraft is 961 mb (28.38 inches). The official reporting station on Bermuda recently reported a pressure of 963 mb (28.44 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- WIND: Do not venture out in the eye. Although winds in eye are light, hurricane conditions will return soon after the eye passes and will continue through early afternoon. Tropical storm conditions will continue through this evening. STORM SURGE: A dangerous storm surge will raise water levels by as much as 6 to 8 feet above normal tide levels in Bermuda. The surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves. RAINFALL: Nicole is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 5 to 8 inches over Bermuda through this evening. SURF: Swells associated with Nicole will affect Bermuda during the next few days, and will spread northward along the United States east coast from the Carolinas northward through the next few days. These swells will create dangerous surf conditions and rip currents. Please refer to products being issued by your local weather office for more information. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next intermediate advisory at 200 PM AST. Next complete advisory at 500 PM AST. $$ Forecaster Brown/Berg
