Issued at 1100 AM AST Sat Aug 17 2024 000 WTNT45 KNHC 171453 TCDAT5 Hurricane Ernesto Discussion Number 24 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052024 1100 AM AST Sat Aug 17 2024 An Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft made a couple of passes through Ernesto this morning and only found 700-mb flight level winds as high as 74 kt--significantly lower than the maximum winds reported by the mission yesterday evening and overnight. The initial intensity is therefore set at 70 kt for this advisory, and even that could be a bit generous. Although the central pressure has not risen much, Ernesto's wind field has continued to expand, and the hurricane is now exhibiting a large rain-free center region that is just about to move past Bermuda. The forward motion has slowed a bit more and is now estimated to be north-northeastward (025 degrees) at 7 kt. Ernesto has been left behind by a shortwave trough now located near Newfoundland, and therefore a continued slow motion toward the north-northeast is forecast for the next day or so until another trough to the west gets closer. Ernesto should begin accelerating on Sunday as it heads toward Atlantic Canada, turning northeastward and passing very near southeastern Newfoundland late Monday and Monday night. The guidance has again slowed down on this cycle, and the NHC forecast has been adjusted accordingly. Although deep-layer shear is forecast to diminish a bit during the next 24 hours while Ernesto remains over waters of 28 degrees Celsius, the structure of the hurricane and dry air within the circulation suggest that the storm may not be able to re-intensity much, if at all. The NHC intensity forecast is near the top end of the guidance and does keep Ernesto as a hurricane for the next 48 hours. Weakening is expected after that time, and global model fields suggest Ernesto should become extratropical by 72 hours while or just after passing Newfoundland. A 96-hour point is provided for continuity, but both the GFS and ECMWF indicate that the circulation could open up into a trough over the north Atlantic by then. Key Messages: 1. Ernesto is moving slowly, and its impacts on Bermuda are not over. Strong winds, heavy rainfall, coastal flooding, and battering waves are likely through tonight. The heavy rains will likely result in considerable life-threatening flash flooding, especially in low-lying areas on the island. 2. Even though Ernesto is forecast to remain well offshore the U.S. East Coast, swells generated by the hurricane are expected to affect the area through early next week. Beach goers should be aware that there is a significant risk of life-threatening surf and rip currents, and should stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. Surf and rip currents are also possible on the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Atlantic Canada during the next few days. 3. Ernesto could bring wind, wave, and rain impacts to portions of southeastern Newfoundland late Monday and Monday night.

SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Hurricane Warning is in effect for... * Bermuda A Hurricane Warning means that hurricane conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area. Interests in southeastern Newfoundland should monitor the progress of Ernesto. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 AM AST (1500 UTC), the center of Hurricane Ernesto was located near latitude 32.9 North, longitude 64.4 West. Ernesto is moving toward the north-northeast near 9 mph (15 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue through early Sunday. An acceleration toward the north-northeast should begin on Sunday, with a turn toward the northeast and east-northeast occurring late Monday into Tuesday. On the forecast track, the center of Ernesto will slowly move away from Bermuda today and pass near southeastern Newfoundland late Monday and Monday night. Data from an Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft indicate that maximum sustained winds are near 80 mph (130 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is forecast during the next 48 hours. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 70 miles (110 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 240 miles (390 km). An elevated weather station at the National Museum of Bermuda recently reported a sustained wind of 62 mph (100 km/h) and a gust to 82 mph (132 km/h). The estimated minimum central pressure is 974 mb (28.77 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Ernesto can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header WTNT45 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT5.shtml. WIND: Hurricane-force gusts are possible on Bermuda for a few more hours. Tropical storm conditions are likely to continue through this evening or tonight. STORM SURGE: Significant coastal flooding is still possible on Bermuda in areas of onshore winds. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves. RAINFALL: Ernesto is expected to produce total rain accumulations of 6 to 9 inches or 150 to 225 mm in Bermuda. This rainfall will likely result in considerable life-threatening flash flooding, especially in low-lying areas on the island. SURF: Swells generated by Ernesto are affecting portions of the Bahamas, Bermuda, and the east coast of the United States and will reach portions of Atlantic Canada today. Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions are likely in these areas during the next couple of days. Please consult products from your local weather office, and stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next intermediate advisory at 200 PM AST. Next complete advisory at 500 PM AST. $$ Forecaster Berg
