Hurricane Ernesto Forecast Discussion Number 35

National Hurricane Center - Tue, 08/20/2024 - 3:38am
Issued at 500 AM AST Tue Aug 20 2024 939 WTNT45 KNHC 200838 TCDAT5 Hurricane Ernesto Discussion Number 35 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052024 500 AM AST Tue Aug 20 2024 Increasingly strong westerly vertical wind shear is affecting the cyclone, displacing most of the remaining deep convection to the east of the low-level center. The system's cloud pattern is already taking on a less tropical-looking appearance, making intensity estimates via the Dvorak technique somewhat problematic. However, a couple of ship reports of winds of 58 and 51 kt to the east of the center indicate that Ernesto is still near hurricane strength. Thus, the advisory intensity is set at 65 kt. The hurricane has been accelerating northeastward and the initial motion estimate is 050/31 kt. Ernesto is embedded within a strong deep-layer flow between a large trough over the northeastern U.S. and a ridge over the central subtropical Atlantic. In a day or so, an even faster motion toward the northeast and east-northeast is likely as the cyclone comes more under the influence of a large deep-layer cyclone over the northeastern Atlantic. The official track forecast is close to the previous NHC prediction, and follows the multi-model consensus solution. Continued weakening is likely as Ernesto moves over cold water and remains under the influence of strong shear. Based on current trends and simulated satellite imagery from the global models, the system's deep convection should be disrupted to the point that Ernesto will have become a post-tropical cyclone in about 12 hours. In 24 hours, the guidance shows a frontal appearance indicating extratropical transition. In 36 hours or so, Ernesto is predicted to open up into a trough over the northeastern Atlantic. Key Messages: 1. The effects of swells generated by Ernesto on the coasts of Bermuda, the northeast U.S., and Atlantic Canada should diminish during the next day or so. Until then, beach goers should be aware that there still could be a significant risk of life-threatening surf and rip currents and should stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards.

Hurricane Ernesto Forecast Discussion Number 34

National Hurricane Center - Mon, 08/19/2024 - 9:31pm
Issued at 1100 PM AST Mon Aug 19 2024 000 WTNT45 KNHC 200231 TCDAT5 Hurricane Ernesto Discussion Number 34 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052024 1100 PM AST Mon Aug 19 2024 Satellite imagery shows that the convective structure of Ernesto is decaying due to increasing shear and passage over colder water, with most of the remaining convection now in the northeastern quadrant. However, Canadian radar shows the remaining convection still has a good tropical cyclone banding pattern. Satellite intensity estimates were mostly near 75 kt at 00Z, and based on the loss of organization since that time the initial intensity is decreased to 70 kt. Ernesto should continue steady to rapid weakening due to shear and cold water. The new intensity forecast has the cyclone losing its remaining convection and becoming a post-tropical low by 24 h. However, this could be generous, and the system could become post-tropical at any time. After 24 h, Ernesto is going to become involved with a large baroclinic low developing near Iceland, and as this occurs it is likely to develop or merge with a frontal zone to become extratropical. The system is expected to degenerate to a trough on the south side of the larger low by 48 h. The hurricane is now accelerating northeastward with the initial motion of 050/30 kt. The strong flow between an approaching mid- to upper-level trough over the eastern U.S. and a ridge over the subtropical central Atlantic should cause the cyclone to accelerate even more during the next 24 h, and a rapid east-northeastward motion should continue as the baroclinic low becomes the predominant steering influence. The NHC track forecast remains near the middle of the tightly clustered models and has no significant change since the previous advisory. Key Messages: 1. The effects of swells generated by Ernesto on the coasts of Bermuda, the northeast U.S., and Atlantic Canada should diminish during the next day or so. Until then, beach goers should be aware that there still could be a significant risk of life-threatening surf and rip currents and should stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. 2. Ernesto will likely bring some wind, wave, and rain impacts to portions of southeastern Newfoundland during the next several hours. Breaking waves could bring the possibility of coastal flooding, particularly along southwest-facing shorelines from Bunin east to Avalon regions. For additional impact specific information, please see statements issued by the Canadian Hurricane Centre.

Hurricane Ernesto Forecast Discussion Number 33

National Hurricane Center - Mon, 08/19/2024 - 3:36pm
Issued at 500 PM AST Mon Aug 19 2024 967 WTNT45 KNHC 192036 TCDAT5 Hurricane Ernesto Discussion Number 33 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052024 500 PM AST Mon Aug 19 2024 Ernesto is maintaining its intensity at high latitudes. The hurricane continues to have an eye feature, especially in the mid-levels, and thunderstorms remain most organized north of the center. Recent microwave images indicate that the circulation has become titled from southwest to northeast with height, an indication of increasing southwesterly vertical wind shear. The initial intensity is held at 80 kt, in general agreement with the subjective and objective Dvorak estimates. Ernesto has likely peaked in strength. Since the hurricane has now crossed the north wall of the Gulf Stream and moving into an environment of increasing shear and drier air, steady or rapid weakening is expected to begin soon. The environmental factors should also cause extratropical transition, which will likely be complete Tuesday morning. The NHC intensity forecast is the same as the previous one and in line with the bulk of the guidance. The hurricane is gradually accelerating to the northeast, or 35 degrees at 23 kt. The strong flow between an approaching mid- to upper-level trough over the eastern U.S. and a ridge over the subtropical central Atlantic should cause the cyclone to accelerate even more and turn to the northeast and east-northeast during the next couple of days. The NHC track forecast remains near the middle of the tightly clustered models. Key Messages: 1. Swells generated by Ernesto will continue to affect the coasts of Bermuda, the northeast U.S., and Atlantic Canada during the next day or so. Beach goers should be aware that there is a significant risk of life-threatening surf and rip currents, and should stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. 2. Ernesto will likely bring some wind, wave, and rain impacts to portions of southeastern Newfoundland tonight into Tuesday morning. Breaking waves could bring the possibility of coastal flooding, particularly along southwest-facing shorelines from Bunin east to Avalon regions.

On the forecast track, the center of Ernesto will pass near southeastern Newfoundland tonight and early Tuesday. Maximum sustained winds remain near 90 mph (150 km/h) with higher gusts. Steady to rapid weakening is forecast, and Ernesto is expected to become a post-tropical cyclone early Tuesday. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 45 miles (75 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 220 miles (350 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 968 mb (28.59 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Ernesto can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header WTNT45 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT5.shtml. SURF: Swells generated by Ernesto are affecting Bermuda, the northeast coast of the United States, and Atlantic Canada. Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions are likely to continue in these areas during the next day or so. In southeastern Newfoundland large breaking waves could bring the possibility of coastal flooding, particularly along southwest-facing shorelines from Burin east to Avalon regions. Please consult products from your local weather office, and stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 1100 PM AST. $$ Forecaster Cangialosi
