Tropical Storm KATE Forecast Discussion Number 7

2015-11-10 15:52:02| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 1000 AM EST TUE NOV 10 2015 000 WTNT42 KNHC 101451 TCDAT2 TROPICAL STORM KATE DISCUSSION NUMBER 7 NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL122015 1000 AM EST TUE NOV 10 2015 Data from both NOAA and Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft investigating Kate this morning indicate that the storm has continued to strengthen. The initial intensity is set to 60 kt based on a peak SFMR wind of 61 kt from the Air Force aircraft. Given the latest dropsonde data, the central pressure is estimated at 999 mb. Kate's center continues to be embedded within a small CDO feature, with aircraft data indicating some tilt to the circulation, consistent with 15 to 20 kt of southwesterly shear analyzed over the cyclone. Despite increasing shear and cooling SSTs along the track, all of the guidance continues to suggest that Kate will strengthen during the next 24-36 hours, likely due in part to very cold temperatures aloft. The NHC forecast follows this trend, and is above the guidance in the short range given the initial intensity, and shows Kate peaking at 70 kt in 24 to 36 hours. As the shear increases to over 40 kt, Kate should lose tropical characteristics by 48 hours and then weaken as it becomes fully extratropical by 72 hours. The official forecast carries Kate as the dominant feature through 5 days as it interacts with another extratropical low over the north Atlantic. Kate continues to accelerate, with an initial motion estimate of 035/18. A further acceleration toward the east-northeast is forecast during the next 24 to 36 hours as Kate becomes fully embedded in the mid-latitude westerlies. A slowing of the forward speed is expected in 48 to 72 hours while Kate interacts with an upper-level trough during extratropical transition, followed by a faster northwestward motion over the north Atlantic at the end of the forecast period. The new NHC track forecast is largely an update of the previous one. This forecast is close to the latest GFS track through 48 hours and a little to the north of that model afterward. The extratropical portion of Kate's forecast was coordinated with the NOAA Ocean Prediction Center.

SUMMARY OF 1000 AM EST...1500 UTC...INFORMATION ----------------------------------------------- LOCATION...30.2N 74.7W ABOUT 350 MI...560 KM S OF CAPE HATTERAS NORTH CAROLINA ABOUT 600 MI...970 KM W OF BERMUDA MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...70 MPH...110 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...NE OR 35 DEGREES AT 21 MPH...33 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...999 MB...29.50 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. Interests in Bermuda should monitor the progress of Kate. DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK ------------------------------ At 1000 AM EST (1500 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Kate was located near latitude 30.2 North, longitude 74.7 West. Kate is moving toward the northeast near 21 mph (33 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue today with an increase in forward speed. A turn toward the east-northeast and a further increase in forward speed are expected tonight and Wednesday. On the forecast track, the center of Kate is expected to remain well offshore of the east coast of the United States and pass north of Bermuda tonight and early Wednesday. Data from an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that maximum sustained winds have increased to near 70 mph (110 km/h) with higher gusts. Additional strengthening is forecast during the next day or so, and Kate is forecast to become a hurricane by tonight. Tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 80 miles (130 km) from the center. The latest minimum central pressure based on data from the aircraft is 999 mb (29.50 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Swells from Kate affecting the eastward-facing beaches in the northwestern Bahamas should gradually subside today. Swells from Kate will begin to affect Bermuda tonight and continue through Wednesday. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 400 PM EST. $$ Forecaster Brennan
