Hurricane Ernesto Forecast Discussion Number 32

National Hurricane Center - Mon, 08/19/2024 - 9:48am
Issued at 1100 AM AST Mon Aug 19 2024 000 WTNT45 KNHC 191448 TCDAT5 Hurricane Ernesto Discussion Number 32 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052024 1100 AM AST Mon Aug 19 2024 Ernesto continues to slowly gain strength. Satellite images indicate that the eye of the hurricane has become a little better defined, but the storm still has a convective asymmetry with the strongest thunderstorms on the north side. The latest Dvorak estimates from TAFB and SAB were 4.5/77 kt and the objective satellite guidance is a little higher. Based on the data and the improved structure, the initial wind speed is increased to 80 kt. A very recent ASCAT pass indicated that Ernesto remains a large tropical cyclone. The strongest winds and largest radius of hurricane and tropical-storm-force winds are located in the southeastern quadrant. The hurricane is gradually accelerating to the north-northeast, or 30 degrees at 19 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 is similar to the previous one and near the middle of the guidance envelope. Ernesto is now crossing the north wall of the Gulf Stream, and will soon be moving over sharply cooler SSTs. In addition, the hurricane will be moving into an environment of stronger shear and drier air. All of these conditions should lead to weakening very soon and extratropical transition, which is expected to be complete by early Tuesday. The NHC intensity forecast is similar to the previous one, and follows the GFS guidance during the extratropical phase. 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. For additional impact specific information, please see statements issued by the Canadian Hurricane Centre.

Hurricane Ernesto Forecast Discussion Number 31

National Hurricane Center - Mon, 08/19/2024 - 3:53am
Issued at 500 AM AST Mon Aug 19 2024 070 WTNT45 KNHC 190844 TCDAT5 Hurricane Ernesto Discussion Number 31 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052024 500 AM AST Mon Aug 19 2024 Satellite imagery shows that Ernesto's eye is irregularly-shaped, with fairly cold convective cloud tops over the northern portion of the circulation. The southwestern part of the high cloud canopy is beginning to become slightly blunted, which suggests some southwesterly shear is beginning to affect the system. The various objective intensity estimates from UW-CIMSS indicate that, a couple of hours ago, the hurricane strengthened a little more, but recently the overall cloud pattern appears to have become a little less organized. This suggests that Ernesto has stopped strengthening, and the current intensity estimate is set at 75 kt which is in general agreement with subjective Dvorak T-numbers. Center fixes indicate a gradual increase in forward speed overnight and the initial motion estimate is 030/18 kt. Ernesto is expected to accelerate northeastward in the flow ahead of a large deep-layer trough near the U.S. east coast for the next 24 hours or so. This motion should bring the center of the cyclone near southeastern Newfoundland tonight or early Tuesday. Based on the NHC forecast, most of the stronger winds in the system's circulation are expected to stay offshore of Newfoundland. Thereafter, a faster east-northeastward motion over the North Atlantic is forecast while the cyclone becomes fully embedded within the mid-latitude westerlies. In 2-3 days, Ernesto is likely to open up into a trough while merging with a large extratropical low to the south of Iceland. The official track forecast follows the latest dynamical model consensus and is just slightly to the north of the previous NHC prediction. Ernesto will be traversing significantly cooler waters later today and will be impacted by increasing west-southwesterly vertical wind shear during the next day or two. Therefore, a weakening trend should begin by tonight or earlier. The official intensity forecast is quite similar to the latest Decay-SHIPS numerical guidance. Simulated satellite imagery from the global models suggest that the system will become post-tropical within the next day or so. Key Messages: 1. Even though Ernesto is forecast to remain well offshore of the U.S. East Coast, swells generated by the hurricane will continue to affect the area through the early part of this week. 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. Surf and rip currents are also possible on the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Atlantic Canada during the next few days. 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. For additional impact specific information, please see statements issued by the Canadian Hurricane Centre.

Hurricane Ernesto Forecast Discussion Number 30

National Hurricane Center - Sun, 08/18/2024 - 9:34pm
Issued at 1100 PM AST Sun Aug 18 2024 213 WTNT45 KNHC 190234 TCDAT5 Hurricane Ernesto Discussion Number 30 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052024 1100 PM AST Sun Aug 18 2024 Ernesto continues to have a good structure this evening with a partly cloud-filled eye surrounded by bands of convection, although the convective cloud tops are not quite as cold as they were 6 h ago. Subjective Dvorak intensity estimates from TAFB and SAB are now near 65 kt, while various objective estimates are now near 75 kt. The initial intensity is increased to 70 kt based on a blend of these data. Some additional strengthening is possible during the next 6-12 h before Ernesto moves north of the north wall of the Gulf Stream. After that, the system should quickly decay as it moves over colder water and encounters increasing southwesterly shear. The cyclone should become an extratropical low by 36 h as it passes south of southeastern Newfoundland, and by 72 h it should be absorbed into a larger non-tropical low developing south of Iceland. The new intensity forecast is near the upper edge of the intensity guidance for the first 12 h, and after that lies near the intensity consensus. The initial motion is now 030/17 kt. A northeastward motion at a faster forward speed is expected over the next 24-36 h as Ernesto becomes caught up in the flow between a large deep-layer trough over the eastern U.S. and a subtropical ridge centered to the hurricane's southeast. This motion should bring the center south of southeastern Newfoundland late Monday night or early Tuesday morning, with most of the wind field staying offshore. A more east-northeastward motion is expected thereafter before the cyclone becomes absorbed by the aforementioned larger extratropical cyclone. The tightly clustered track guidance has shifted a little to the north since the last advisory, so the new track forecast is a little north of the previous track. Key Messages: 1. Even though Ernesto is forecast to remain well offshore of the U.S. East Coast, swells generated by the hurricane will continue to affect the area through the early part of this week. 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. Surf and rip currents are also possible on the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Atlantic Canada during the next few days. 2. Ernesto could bring wind, wave, and rain impacts to portions of southeastern Newfoundland Monday night into Tuesday morning. 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.

SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. Interests in southeastern Newfoundland should monitor the progress of Ernesto. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Hurricane Ernesto was located near latitude 38.5 North, longitude 61.4 West. Ernesto is moving toward the north-northeast near 20 mph (31 km/h), and this motion with some increase in forward speed is expected tonight. A turn toward the northeast and east-northeast and an additional increase in forward speed are expected on Monday and Tuesday. On the forecast track, the center of Ernesto will pass near southeastern Newfoundland late Monday into Tuesday morning. Maximum sustained winds are near 80 mph (130 km/h) with higher gusts. Some additional strengthening is possible tonight. After that, Ernesto should weaken, and the cyclone is forecast to become post-tropical on Tuesday. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 220 miles (350 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 975 mb (28.80 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 portions of the Bahamas, Bermuda, the east 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 couple of days. 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 500 AM AST. $$ Forecaster Beven
