SUMMARY OF 200 PM EDT...1800 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...29.3N 77.5W ABOUT 200 MI...320 KM ENE OF CAPE CANAVERAL FLORIDA ABOUT 200 MI...325 KM N OF GREAT ABACO ISLAND MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...75 MPH...120 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...ENE OR 70 DEGREES AT 21 MPH...33 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...983 MB...29.03 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- CHANGES WITH THIS ADVISORY: Storm Surge and Tropical Storm Warnings have been discontinued south of the Flagler/Volusia County Line. The government of the Bahamas has discontinued the Tropical Storm Warning for the extreme northwestern Bahamas. SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Storm Surge Warning is in effect for... * Flagler/Volusia County Line northward to Altamaha Sound Georgia, including the St. Johns River A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for... * Flagler/Volusia County Line northward to Edisto Beach South Carolina A Storm Surge Warning means there is a danger of life-threatening inundation, from rising water moving inland from the coastline in the indicated locations. For a depiction of areas at risk, please see the National Weather Service Storm Surge Watch/Warning Graphic, available at hurricanes.gov. A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area. For storm information specific to your area in the United States, including possible inland watches and warnings, please monitor products issued by your local National Weather Service forecast office. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 200 PM EDT (1800 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Milton was located near latitude 29.3 North, longitude 77.5 West. Milton is moving toward the east-northeast near 21 mph (33 km/h). A turn toward the east is expected later today, with that motion forecast to continue over the western Atlantic for the next few days. On the forecast track, the center of Milton will continue to move away from the east coast of Florida and pass north of the northwestern Bahamas this afternoon. Satellite-derived wind data indicate Milton has become a powerful post-tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds near 75 mph (120 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual weakening is expected during the next several days. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km) northwest of the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 310 miles (500 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 983 mb (29.03 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key Messages for Milton can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT4 and WMO header WTNT44 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT4.shtml STORM SURGE: The combination of a dangerous storm surge and the tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising waters moving inland from the shoreline. The water could reach the following heights above ground somewhere in the indicated areas if the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide... Flagler/Volusia County Line, FL to Altamaha Sound, GA...3-5 ft St. Johns River...2-4 ft The deepest water will occur along the immediate coast in areas of onshore winds, where the surge will be accompanied by large and dangerous waves. Surge-related flooding depends on the relative timing of the surge and the tidal cycle, and can vary greatly over short distances. For information specific to your area, please see products issued by your local National Weather Service forecast office. For a complete depiction of areas at risk of storm surge inundation, please see the National Weather Service Peak Storm Surge Graphic, available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?peakSurge. RAINFALL: Additional rainfall amounts around an inch are possible along the northeastern coast of Florida through today. In the wake of heavy rainfall from Milton, the risk of considerable urban flooding will linger through this morning across east central Florida. Moderate to major river flooding is ongoing and forecast throughout central Florida. For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall associated with Post-Tropical Cyclone Milton, please see the National Weather Service Storm Total Rainfall Graphic, available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?rainqpf and the Flash Flood Risk graphic at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at4.shtml?ero. WIND: Tropical storm conditions will continue within the tropical storm warning areas in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina for the next few hours. SURF: Swells generated by Milton are expected to continue to affect portions of the southeast U.S. and the Bahamas during the next couple of days. These swells could cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.

Post-Tropical Cyclone Milton Forecast Discussion Number 22

Thu, 10/10/2024 - 9:43am
Issued at 1100 AM EDT Thu Oct 10 2024 000 WTNT44 KNHC 101443 TCDAT4 Hurricane Milton Discussion Number 22 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL142024 1100 AM EDT Thu Oct 10 2024 Milton is quickly taking on extratropical characteristics, with convection more closely aligned along a warm frontal boundary to the northeast than the center itself. Due to the structure evolution, it is likely that the strongest winds are located to the northwest of the center. The intensity is lowered to 70 kt, based on continuity from the previous forecast. Scatterometer passes are expected in a few hours and should allow us to get a better handle on Milton's intensity and structure. The hurricane has turned east-northeastward (065/17 kt). Milton is located within the base of a deep-layer trough located over the western Atlantic, and this feature should steer the storm eastward later today, with that motion continuing for the next 3 days. The NHC forecast is a little faster than the previous prediction to follow the recent trends in the model guidance. Global model fields show low-level thickness contours packing closer together on the northwest side through the day, and it is therefore likely that Milton will complete extratropical transition by this afternoon or evening. Milton will still be a powerful post-tropical cyclone, but its maximum winds are expected to gradually decrease during the next few days. The post-tropical low is expected to become diffuse and will likely dissipate in about 4 days. Key Messages: 1. A Storm Surge Warning remains in effect for portions of the east coast of Florida and southern coast of Georgia. Storm surge inundation will continue in these areas through this afternoon. 2. Tropical storm conditions will continue along portions of the southeast U.S. coast through this afternoon and over the extreme northwestern Bahamas through this evening. 3. In the wake of heavy rainfall from Milton, the risk of considerable urban flooding will linger through this afternoon across east central Florida. Moderate to major river flooding is ongoing and forecast throughout central Florida. 4. Use caution after the storm as deadly hazards remain including downed power lines and flooded areas. Ensure generators are properly ventilated and placed outside at least 20 feet away from doors, windows, and garages to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. If you are cleaning up storm damage, be careful when using chainsaws and power tools, and drink plenty of water to avoid heat exhaustion.

Hurricane Leslie Forecast Discussion Number 33

Thu, 10/10/2024 - 9:34am
Issued at 1100 AM AST Thu Oct 10 2024 000 WTNT43 KNHC 101433 TCDAT3 Hurricane Leslie Discussion Number 33 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL132024 1100 AM AST Thu Oct 10 2024 The satellite presentation of Leslie has degraded since the previous advisory. Strong northerly wind shear has been pushing most of the convection to the south side of the low-level center. The most recent GOES-16 images suggest that the low-level center is likely just barely underneath the northern edge of the central dense overcast. The latest subjective current intensity values from TAFB and SAB are still 90 kt due to continuity constraints, but the latest ADT and AiDT intensity estimates from UW-CIMSS have decreased down to 72 kt. The intensity is set to 80 kt, as a blend of all the estimates. Leslie has already entered the strong northerly shear zone that has been advertised in previous discussions, and the guidance indicates that the shear will continue to increase to over 40 kt over the next 12 to 24 h. Shear that strong, combined with the dry environment that Leslie is embedded within, is likely to lead to steady to rapid weakening. The NHC forecast calls for Leslie to weaken by 35 kt over the next 36 h, in good agreement with the HCCA corrected consensus, HAFS models, and the intensity consensus. After that, the models hold on to Leslie, and there is quite a bit of uncertainty in the timing of when Leslie will become post-tropical. GFS and ECMWF simulated satellite imagery indicate that puffs of convection could continue through the weekend. The cyclone is also likely to interact with an approaching frontal system by Sunday. The NHC forecast continues to call for Leslie to become post-tropical by day 3. The initial motion is estimated to be west-northwestward, or 300/6 kt. Model guidance is in excellent agreement that a northward turn will happen very soon as Leslie moves around the southwestern periphery of a subtropical ridge over the eastern Atlantic. On Friday and Friday night, the hurricane should speed up and turn to the northeast, followed by an east-northeastward turn as it accelerates further over the weekend. The latest NHC track forecast is slightly west of the previous one during the first 48 hours of the forecast, and nearly identical to the previous forecast thereafter. The official forecast is in best agreement with the TVCA consensus.
