Hurricane Helene Forecast Discussion Number 15

2018-09-11 04:42:59| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 1100 PM AST Mon Sep 10 2018 809 WTNT43 KNHC 110242 TCDAT3 Hurricane Helene Discussion Number 15 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL082018 1100 PM AST Mon Sep 10 2018 Helene remains a well organized hurricane with a fairly large 25 n mi diameter eye and ring of cold cloud tops surrounding that feature. There are a few dry slots beyond the inner core, however, which have prevented some of the Dvorak estimates from increasing this cycle. A blend of the latest subjective and objective satellite intensity estimates supports raising the initial intensity slightly to 95 kt. The hurricane has a limited amount of time to strengthen as the current environment of low wind shear and relatively warm SSTs will be changing soon. Helene is expected to cross the 26 deg C isotherm within 24 hours and it will enter an environment of increasing south-southwesterly shear just beyond that time period. These conditions should promote a steady weakening trend beginning late Tuesday. By the end of the forecast period, however, SSTs increase along the forecast track, and there could be some baroclinic enhancements to end the weakening trend and perhaps even cause some strengthening. This scenario is supported by the HWRF/HMON regional models and the GFS/ECMWF global models. The NHC intensity forecast is largely an update of the previous one, except it is slightly higher at the end of the period. The hurricane is gradually turning to the right, with the latest initial motion estimate being 295/13 kt. A large mid- to upper-level trough over the north Atlantic is expected to dig southward causing a significant weakness in the subtropical ridge. In response to this change in the steering pattern, Helene is forecast to gradually turn northward and then north-northeastward during the next several days. The track models are in fairly good agreement, and the NHC track forecast lies near the middle of the guidance envelope. This forecast is only a little to the right of the previous track.

SUMMARY OF 1100 PM AST...0300 UTC...INFORMATION ----------------------------------------------- LOCATION...15.5N 32.4W ABOUT 535 MI...860 KM W OF THE SOUTHERNMOST CABO VERDE ISLANDS ABOUT 1590 MI...2555 KM SSW OF THE AZORES MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...110 MPH...175 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...WNW OR 295 DEGREES AT 12 MPH...19 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...968 MB...28.59 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Hurricane Helene was located near latitude 15.5 North, longitude 32.4 West. Helene is moving toward the west-northwest near 12 mph (19 km/h). A continued west-northwestward motion with a decrease in forward speed is expected through late Tuesday, followed by a turn toward the northwest and then north-northwest on Wednesday and Thursday. Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 105 mph (165 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in intensity is expected during the next 12 hours, but a gradual weakening trend is expected after that time. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 115 miles (185 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 968 mb (28.59 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- None NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 500 AM AST. $$ Forecaster Cangialosi
