Issued at 300 PM GMT Mon Nov 04 2024 000 WTNT42 KNHC 041440 TCDAT2 Remnants Of Patty Discussion Number 10 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL172024 300 PM GMT Mon Nov 04 2024 Satellite images and satellite derived wind data indicate that the low-level center of Patty has become elongated, and opened into a trough over the northeastern Atlantic. Therefore, the system is no longer a tropical cyclone, and this is the last NHC advisory. The remnants of Patty will turn toward the east-northeast later today. Between tonight and Tuesday, heavy rainfall across portions of Portugal and western Spain is possible from the remnants of Patty. This is the last public advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center on this system.

Tropical Depression Eighteen Forecast Discussion Number 4

Mon, 11/04/2024 - 9:40am
Issued at 1000 AM EST Mon Nov 04 2024 000 WTNT43 KNHC 041440 TCDAT3 Tropical Depression Eighteen Discussion Number 4 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL182024 1000 AM EST Mon Nov 04 2024 Data from the Air Force Hurricane Hunters, satellite images, and surface observations indicate that the low pressure system over the south-central Caribbean Sea has developed a well-defined center and is producing organized deep convection. Therefore, the system now meets the criteria of a tropical depression. The maximum flight-level winds from the aircraft support holding the initial wind speed steady at 30 kt. Deep convection is gradually organizing near the center and in bands around it, especially on the south and east sides of the circulation. The depression has jogged a bit to the right of the previous track, and the initial motion estimate is now 010/8 kt. A turn to the northwest is expected later today, and that motion is forecast to continue during the next few days as a ridge builds over the southwestern Atlantic and northeastern Caribbean. This motion should take the center of the system near Jamaica tonight, near or over the Cayman Islands by late Tuesday, and across western Cuba on Wednesday. After that time, when the system reaches the Gulf of Mexico, the model solutions diverge, which appears to be due to differences in the steering patterns and vertical depth of the storm. The NHC track forecast is largely an update of the previous one and remains close to the various consensus models. However, it should be noted that the track forecast over the Gulf of Mexico is of low confidence. The environmental factors of low wind shear, high moisture, and warm SSTs support intensification, and since the system now has a well organized circulation, there is increasing confidence of steady strengthening until the system reaches Cuba or the southeastern Gulf of Mexico. In 3 or 4 days, when the system reaches the central Gulf, a sharp increase in southwesterly vertical wind shear, drier air, and slightly cooler waters should end the strengthening trend and induce weakening. The NHC intensity forecast lies near the middle of the guidance envelope, fairly close to the HCCA and IVCN consensus aids. Key Messages: 1. Hurricane conditions are expected in the Cayman Islands on Tuesday and are possible in portions of Cuba early Wednesday, where Hurricane Warnings and Watches are in effect. There is a risk of dangerous impacts from hurricane-force winds and storm surge in the Cayman Islands and portions of western Cuba. Tropical storm conditions are expected in Jamaica this evening. 2. Interests in the Florida Keys should closely monitor this system as tropical storm watches could be required for portions of these areas later today. 3. The system is forecast to enter the Gulf of Mexico later this week, but given significant uncertainties in the long-range forecast track and intensity, it is too soon to determine what, if any, impacts could occur. Residents in this area should regularly monitor updates to the forecast. 4. The system will bring areas of heavy rain across portions of the western Caribbean, including Jamaica and portions of Cuba through mid-week. Flooding and mudslides are possible in these areas. Heavy rainfall will spread north into Florida and adjacent areas of the Southeast United States mid to late week.

A watch is typically issued 48 hours before the anticipated first occurrence of tropical-storm-force winds, conditions that make outside preparations difficult or dangerous. A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area, in this case within 24 hours. Interests in Cuba and the Florida Keys should closely monitor this system. Additional watches or warnings could be required today. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 700 AM EST (1200 UTC), the disturbance was centered near latitude 14.8 North, longitude 76.8 West. The system is moving toward the north near 7 mph (11 km/h). A northwestward motion is expected later today and forecast to continue for the next few days. On the forecast track, the system is expected to move near Jamaica this evening, be near or over the Cayman Islands on Tuesday, and approach Cuba on Wednesday. Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts. The disturbance is expected to become a tropical depression or storm today with additional strengthening forecast thereafter. The system could be near or at hurricane intensity when it passes near the Cayman Islands and Cuba. * Formation chance through 48 hours ...high...near 100 percent. * Formation chance through 7 days... high...near 100 percent. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Potential Tropical Cyclone Eighteen can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT3 and WMO header WTNT43 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT3.shtml WIND: Hurricane conditions are possible in the Cayman Islands by Tuesday afternoon. Tropical storm conditions are expected in Jamaica by this evening. RAINFALL: Heavy rainfall will impact areas of the Western Caribbean with the heaviest rainfall occurring over Jamaica and portions of Cuba through mid-week. Rainfall totals between 3 to 6 inches with locally up to 9 inches are expected. Flooding could occur over portions of Jamaica and Cuba, with mudslides possible. Heavy rainfall will spread north into Florida and adjacent areas of the Southeast United States during mid- to late week. For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall associated with Potential Tropical Cyclone Eighteen, please see the National Weather Service Storm Total Rainfall Graphic, available at https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at3.shtml?rainqpf STORM SURGE: Minor coastal flooding is possible in Jamaica on Monday and the Cayman Islands on Tuesday. SURF: Swells generated by the system are expected to affect much of the western Caribbean during the next few days. Please consult products from your local weather office.

Potential Tropical Cyclone Eighteen Forecast Discussion Number 3

Mon, 11/04/2024 - 3:50am
Issued at 400 AM EST Mon Nov 04 2024 000 WTNT43 KNHC 040850 TCDAT3 Potential Tropical Cyclone Eighteen Discussion Number 3 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL182024 400 AM EST Mon Nov 04 2024 The system's deep convection is gradually becoming better organized with a little more concentration of the shower and thunderstorm activity. However, convective banding features are not yet well defined, and observations from an Air Force Hurricane aircraft did not show a distinct circulation center. Surface observations and scatterometer data indicate very light winds over the western portion of the disturbance. Since the circulation has yet to become well defined, the system is still being designated as a potential tropical cyclone at this time. The current intensity estimate remains at 30 kt based on the scatterometer winds and the aircraft observations. Another Air Force plane is scheduled to investigate the system later this morning. Given the lack of a well-defined center, the initial motion is rather uncertain. My best estimate is slowly northward, or 360/6 kt. Over the next few days, the system should move generally northwestward on the southwestern periphery of a mid-level high pressure system near and east of the Florida peninsula. Later in the forecast period, the track guidance diverges significantly, with the latest ECMWF and U.K. Met office model predictions well to the southwest of most of the other guidance tracks. The motion during the latter part of the period is partially dependent on how much the mid-level subtropical ridge to the northeast is eroded by the upstream flow and how strong and vertically deep the tropical cyclone will become. The details of this evolution are not well known at this time. In any event it should be noted that, given the uncertainty in the center location, there is greater than usual uncertainty in the track forecast. As noted earlier, there is also significant uncertainty in the intensity prediction. For the next 48 hours or so, the system will be traversing waters of high oceanic heat content with low vertical wind shear. Therefore strengthening is likely, but the amount of intensification is largely dependent on whether a well-defined inner core and vertically aligned circulation develops. If this evolution occurs, which cannot be known with great certainty, significant intensification is likely before the system reaches Western Cuba. Later, the environment over the Gulf of Mexico should be less conducive for strengthening with strong southwesterly shear and drier air. The official intensity forecast lies between the more conservative statistical-dynamical guidance and the more aggressive regional hurricane models. Key Messages: 1. The disturbance is expected to become a tropical storm today and pass near Jamaica on tonight and Tuesday where a Tropical Storm Warning is in effect. The system is forecast to become a hurricane by Tuesday night and there is a risk of dangerous impacts from hurricane-force winds and storm surge in the Cayman Islands and portions of western Cuba. 2. Interests in Cuba and the Florida Keys should closely monitor this system as hurricane and tropical storm watches could be required for portions of these areas later today. 3. The system is forecast to enter the western Gulf of Mexico later this week, but given significant uncertainties in the long-range forecast track and intensity, it is too soon to determine what, if any, impacts could occur. Residents in this area should regularly monitor updates to the forecast. 4. The system will bring areas of heavy rain across portions of the Western Caribbean, including the island of Jamaica and portions of Cuba through mid-week. Flooding could occur over portions of Jamaica and Cuba, with mudslides possible. Heavy rainfall would then spread north into Florida and adjacent areas of the Southeast United States mid to late week.
