An ASCAT-C pass from last evening revealed that maximum winds were barely tropical storm force just to the north of the center, and the latest satellite intensity estimates suggest Gordon may have weakened further since that time. The initial intensity is held at 35 kt for now, but additional ASCAT data should help us re-assess Gordon's maximum winds later this morning. Gordon has been moving west-southwestward (255/9 kt), steered by a low- to mid-level ridge to the north. The cyclone is forecast to turn westward later today, but the ridge is expected to weaken during the next few days, which should cause Gordon to slow down considerably. A mid- to upper-level trough is expected to amplify northeast of the Leeward Islands by the middle of the week, and Gordon is likely to respond by slowing down to speeds of less than 5 kt while gradually turning northwestward and then northward on days 3-5. The updated NHC forecast has been shifted slightly south of the previous prediction during the first 3 days of the forecast, trending toward the HFIP Corrected Consensus, and then shows a slightly sharper recurvature on days 4 and 5. Continued shear, a dry mid-level atmosphere, and a subsident upper-level environment are likely to cause Gordon to weaken to a tropical depression later today. In fact, all of the global models show the wind field weakening and broadening during the next couple of days, and it's entirely possible that Gordon could degenerate into a remnant low at any time if deep convection wanes. If Gordon survives the next few days, the environment could become a little more conducive for strengthening toward the end of the forecast period. The NHC intensity forecast generally follows a blend of the GFS and ECMWF models, which lie near the lower bound of the guidance.

Tropical Weather Outlook
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
200 AM EDT Sun Sep 15 2024

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Gordon, located over the central tropical Atlantic Ocean.

Offshore the Southeastern U.S. Coast:
A non-tropical low pressure area has formed along a frontal boundary
a couple of hundred miles off the southeastern U.S. coast and is
producing winds to gale force north of its center. The low is
forecast to move northwestward or northward over the warm waters of
the Gulf Stream toward the coasts of North Carolina and South
Carolina, and it could become a subtropical or tropical storm during
the next day or two if the associated front dissipates and showers
and thunderstorms become sufficiently organized.

Regardless of tropical or subtropical development, the low is
likely to bring gusty winds, heavy rains with the potential for
flash flooding, coastal flooding, and dangerous beach conditions to
portions of the U.S. Southeast and Mid-Atlantic coast during the
next couple of days, and interests in these areas should monitor
the system's progress. Additional information can be found in
products issued by your local National Weather Service Forecast
Office and High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather
Service.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.

Issued at 1100 PM AST Sat Sep 14 2024 000 WTNT42 KNHC 150238 TCDAT2 Tropical Storm Gordon Discussion Number 15 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072024 1100 PM AST Sat Sep 14 2024 Gordon's surface circulation has become fully exposed this evening and is displaced about 150 mi west of the remaining deep convective mass. The deep-layer westerly shear likely has increased during the past few hours. The initial intensity is lowered to 35 kt for this advisory and is based on constrained subjective satellite intensity T-number estimates from TAFB and SAB. Based on the statistical GFS/ECMWF SHIPS intensity guidance and global model sounding forecasts, Gordon should continue to struggle and weaken during the next few days while moving through a harsh thermodynamic environment. In fact, the global models agree that the cyclone will become a remnant low toward the end of the week as it commences a gradual north-northwestward turn. For now, the surface circulation is expected to remain intact, and Gordon is expected to continue moving generally northward, where atmospheric conditions could become less hostile. The official intensity forecast shows Gordon maintaining depression strength through day 5 in deference to the global model and HCCA solutions. The Decay-SHIPS, LGEM, and IVCN intensity aids, however, continue to show significant re-strengthening late in the period. Consequently, subsequent advisories may need changes, particularly if the global models align more with the intensity aids mentioned above. Gordon's initial motion is estimated to be west-southwestward or 245/9 kt and is steered by a low- to mid-tropospheric ridge extending west-southwestward from high pressure over the North Atlantic. Gordon should continue toward the west-southwest or west during the next 60-72 hours. Afterward, a weakness in the subtropical ridge over the central Atlantic is forecast in response to an amplifying mid- to upper-tropospheric trough. As the cyclone approaches this break in the ridge, the cyclone should gradually turn toward the north-northwest by the end of the period. This forecast track scenario once again assumes that the cyclone will survive during the next several days.

Issued at 500 PM AST Sat Sep 14 2024 000 WTNT42 KNHC 142032 TCDAT2 Tropical Storm Gordon Discussion Number 14 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072024 500 PM AST Sat Sep 14 2024 Over the past couple of hours, the center of Gordon had been exposed to the west of the convective canopy. However, there have been recent bursts of convection closer to the center of the storm and the overall satellite presentation of the system has improved. The environment surrounding Gordon is still unfavorable, with moderate westerly vertical wind shear and a dry stable airmass continuing to have some impact on the cyclone. Gordon is likely in somewhat of a steady state, and the initial intensity remains 40 kt for this advisory. This agrees with the subjective and objective intensity estimates. The tropical storm is forecast to weaken to a depression on Sunday, as it continues to experience moderate shear and a drier and more stable airmass. Model guidance has trended weaker towards the end of the period and the intensity forecast is in fairly good agreement with the HCCA corrected consensus aids. Global models have continued to trend towards Gordon struggling to produce convection, and it is possible Gordon may degenerate into a remnant low or surface trough by the middle of the forecast period. The current forecast keeps Gordon as a tropical cyclone through the period, although this could be generous and subsequent changes may be needed in future advisories. Gordon is tracking westward at 270/9 kt, and a gradual turn toward the west-southwest with a slower forward speed is forecast over the next couple of days, in agreement with the latest track guidance. A shortwave trough approaching from the northwest of Gordon will open a weakness in the mid-level subtropical ridge and allow the tropical cyclone to turn slowly northward. The new track forecast is nearly the same as the previous forecast, except with a slightly slower forward motion.
