The convective structure has degraded since the overnight hours, with only small bursts of convection occurring to the south and east of the estimated center position. More importantly, recent scatterometer data indicate the system does not possess a well-defined, trackable center, with an elongated structure more indicative of a trough of low pressure. Therefore, this will be the final NHC advisory on the remnants of Gordon. The initial intensity is set at 25 kt based on the scatterometer data, although this could be generous. The remnants are expected to move northward to north-northeastward over open waters during the next few days while rotating around a non-tropical low currently positioned to its north. While the structure is unlikely to improve in the short term, there are indications in the global models that the remnants of Gordon could redevelop later this week once the system moves into a more moist environment and gains some distance from the nearby frontal low. NHC will continue to monitor the remnants of Gordon for signs of organization and the possibility of redevelopment later this week. Information on the potential for regeneration will be contained in the Tropical Weather Outlook.

Issued at 500 AM AST Tue Sep 17 2024 000 WTNT42 KNHC 170845 TCDAT2 Tropical Depression Gordon Discussion Number 24 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072024 500 AM AST Tue Sep 17 2024 After becoming a bit better organized Monday evening with persistent deep convection over the low-level center, Gordon's convective organization has been steady during the overnight hours. Subjective Dvorak intensity estimates range from 25-35 kt, while recent objective estimates from UW-CIMSS are in the 31-36 kt range. Based on these intensity estimates as well as taking into account earlier ASCAT data, Gordon's intensity is held at 30 kt for this advisory. The ASCAT passes Monday evening helped locate the center, but the center has been difficult to find since that time. Recent satellite images suggest that the center may be near the northern edge of the central convective area. The motion is still estimated to be westward, or 265/3 kt, but models indicate that the northward turn should begin within the next few hours. A frontal low currently located several hundred miles north of Gordon has created a weakness in the subtropical ridge, which will induce a northward and then a north-northeastward motion at an increasing forward speed during the next couple of days. Gordon should pass east of this feature Wednesday night or Thursday as it is steered by mid-level high pressure to the east of the cyclone. Some of the global models show this ridge building to the northeast of Gordon, which could cause Gordon to bend more toward the north in 4 to 5 days. There are significant speed differences as well as cross-track spread at days 4 and 5. The new NHC forecast is similar to the previous one through 48 h, but is nudged to the west of the previous official forecast beyond 48 h, closer to the latest consensus aids. During the 3 to 5 day time period, the NHC forecast is slower than the latest GFS model and well to the east of the latest ECMWF global model. Gordon's intensity forecast is challenging. Environmental conditions appear moist enough for Gordon to at least maintain its intensity during the next couple of days, given the weak vertical wind shear and warm sea-surface temperatures. However, global models do not show Gordon intensifying much during the next couple of days as the cyclone interacts with a weakening non-tropical low, currently located north of Gordon. Some strengthening is likely once Gordon moves past this feature, but there is quite a bit of uncertainty in what the upper-level winds will look like over the cyclone in the day 3 to 5 period. The GFS model shows moderate southwesterly shear during that time, whereas the ECMWF and other global models suggest stronger shear from the west or northwest, which would be a less favorable direction and would likely prevent further strengthening. As a result, there is a large spread in the intensity guidance, leading to below average confidence in the NHC intensity forecast. The NHC intensity forecast is similar to the previous one, and remains near the low end of the intensity guidance through the forecast period.
