Hurricane Oscar Forecast Discussion Number 9

2018-10-29 03:45:42| National Hurricane Center (Atlantic)

Issued at 1100 PM AST Sun Oct 28 2018 000 WTNT41 KNHC 290245 TCDAT1 Hurricane Oscar Discussion Number 9 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL162018 1100 PM AST Sun Oct 28 2018 Satellite imagery indicates that the structure of Oscar has changed little over the past several hours. Microwave imagery has shown a ring or eye feature which is at least partly encircled by deep convection, and an eye has made occasional appearances in infrared imagery. Satellite intensity estimates have changed little, so the initial intensity remains 65 kt. One change from the previous advisory is that recent scatterometer data show that Oscar has smaller 34-kt wind radii than previously thought, so the initial and forecast wind radii have been modified. The initial motion remains 270/14. Oscar is approaching the western end of a large low- to mid-level ridge over the central Atlantic, and thus it should turn northwestward with a decrease in forward speed during the next 24 h or so. From 24-72 h, the hurricane should recurve into the mid-latitude westerlies on the east side of a deep-layer trough moving eastward through the western and central Atlantic. The models are in good agreement on the forecast track through 72 h, then show significant differences based on whether Oscar merges with a new cut-off low pressure area over the central Atlantic or remains a separate system in the westerlies. The latest GFS has joined the UKMET in showing Oscar racing northeastward into the northeastern Atlantic by 120 h as a separate system. In contrast, the HWRF and the FV3 models show a sharp turn toward the south as the new low captures Oscar. The ECMWF is between these extremes in showing a more gradual turn toward the east well to the east of the HWRF/FV3 and well to the southwest of the GFS/UKMET. The new forecast track is a little west of the previous track in the early part of the forecast based on the current position and motion. Later in the forecast period, it has been shifted a little to the east in best agreement with the ECMWF. Oscar is forecast to remain in a moist and unstable environment for the next 36-48 h, and the trough approaching from the west is likely to create a divergent outflow pattern. Based on this, the intensity forecast now shows a faster rate of strengthening than the previous advisory. After reaching its peak intensity in 36-48 h, it appears likely that the extratropical transition will occur near the 72 h point before the winds drop below hurricane force. After transition, Oscar is expected to gradually decay. It should be noted that if the FV3 scenario verifies, Oscar may maintain tropical cyclone status beyond 72 h.

SUMMARY OF 1100 PM AST...0300 UTC...INFORMATION ----------------------------------------------- LOCATION...25.6N 57.0W ABOUT 660 MI...1060 KM SE OF BERMUDA ABOUT 645 MI...1035 KM NE OF THE NORTHERN LEEWARD ISLANDS MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...75 MPH...120 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...W OR 270 DEGREES AT 16 MPH...26 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...989 MB...29.21 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 Oscar was located near latitude 25.6 North, longitude 57.0 West. Oscar is moving toward the west near 16 mph (26 km/h). A continued westward motion with a decrease in forward speed are expected overnight, followed by a turn toward the west-northwest early Monday and a northwestward motion on Monday afternoon. By Tuesday, Oscar is forecast to begin moving toward the north or north-northeast with an increase in forward speed. The hurricane is then expected to accelerate quickly toward the northeast through the middle of the week. Maximum sustained winds are near 75 mph (120 km/h) with higher gusts. Strengthening is forecast through Tuesday, followed by gradual weakening thereafter. Recent satellite wind data indicate that Oscar has a small area of strong winds. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 15 miles (30 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 989 mb (29.21 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- None. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 500 AM AST. $$ Forecaster Beven
