Tropical Storm Gordon Discussion Number 13
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072024
1100 AM AST Sat Sep 14 2024
Gordon's center is exposed and located west of its deep convection.
This structure is a symptom of the moderate westerly vertical wind
shear that continues to plague the tropical storm. Gordon is also
struggling with the entrainment of dry and stable airmass. Despite
these environmental challenges, a recent scatterometer pass shows
the cyclone maintaining 40 kt maximum sustained winds. This data is
the basis for the initial intensity of this advisory, and agrees
with a blend of the objective and subjective estimates. The
scatterometer pass also shows a lopsided wind field, with tropical
storm force winds limited to the northern semicircle of Gordon. In
the southern semicircle, winds are weak and the vortex shows signs
of elongation.
The cyclone continues to move into a dry and stable airmass, which
in conjunction with the ongoing shear is forecast to induce
weakening today and tonight. Gordon is forecast to become a tropical
depression on Sunday. Thereafter, the forecast maintains the cyclone
as a tropical depression through the early part of next week, but it
is possible that the system degenerates into a remnant low or a
surface trough during that time. In fact, the GFS model indicates
convection could collapse as soon as tonight or early Sunday. The
ECMWF model maintains pulsing convection a bit longer. By the middle
of next week, the environment should become less hostile and allow
for some re-strengthening of Gordon. The intensity forecast is
largely unchanged from the previous advisory and remains on the
lower end of the guidance beyond 72 h due to the uncertain future of
the cyclone.
Gordon is tracking westward 280/8 kt, and a gradual turn toward the
west-southwest with a slower forward speed is forecast over the next
couple of days, in good agreement with the latest track guidance.
Model spread increases beyond 72 h due to differences in intensity
and the overall structure of Gordon at that time. The current
forecast continues the system slowly west-southwestward due to lack
of steering flow. Towards the end of the forecast period, an
approaching shortwave trough will weaken the mid-level subtropical
ridge and would allow the system to turn northward. The updated
track forecast is close to the previous advisory near the simple
consensus aids, and shows a gradual turn toward the northwest and
north beyond Day 3.
