Post-Tropical Cyclone Lowell Discussion Number 21
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
1100 AM HST Fri Sep 25 2020

Lowell has been largely devoid of deep convection for more than 18
hours, with only a small shrinking patch left more than 100 n mi
northeast of the center. Therefore, Lowell is now considered a a
post-tropical remnant low, and this is the last advisory from NHC.
The initial intensity is estimated to be 30 kt.

The remnant low is moving westward at about 11 kt. A continued
westward motion but at a slightly faster pace should occur during
the next few days while the remnant low gradually weakens over cool
waters and in an environment of stable air and increasing westerly
shear. The remnant low is forecast to dissipate a few hundred miles
east-northeast of the Hawaiian Islands in 4 or 5 days.

For additional information on the remnant low please see High Seas
Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service, under AWIPS
header NFDHSFEPI, WMO header FZPN02 KWBC, and on the web at
ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFEPI.php

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 20
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
500 AM HST Fri Sep 25 2020

Lowell has produced almost no deep convection within 100 n mi of its
center for more than 12 hours. As noted in the previous advisory,
although there is still a small patch of convection well to
east-northeast, it is pushing the boundaries of what can reasonably
be considered as organized deep convection. If convection does not
redevelop closer to Lowell's center soon, it could become
post-tropical as soon as this afternoon. Earlier ASCAT-C data showed
a wide area of winds around 35 kt, so the intensity is held at that
value for this advisory.

There were no noteworthy changes made to the NHC forecast. Low- to
mid-level ridging to the north of Lowell is expected to steer the
cyclone just south of due west for the next several days. A break in
the ridge could allow it to turn northward near day 5. A combination
of cool ocean temperatures and westerly shear should prevent the
redevelopment of organized convection, and Lowell will gradually
spin down as a result. The NHC forecast conservatively shows a day 5
point, but Lowell could also dissipate by then. The NHC forecast is
near the middle of the tightly clustered track and intensity
guidance envelopes.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 19
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
1100 PM HST Thu Sep 24 2020

Only a small area of deep convection is lagging about 100 n mi east
of Lowell's center, but a recent scatterometer pass showed that
maximum winds are still around 35 kt. The areal coverage of
Lowell's convection and its distance from the center already put it
on the margins of what is considered organized deep convection.
Cold waters and increasing westerly to southwesterly shear
over the next 24 hours should finally do the convection in, causing
Lowell to lose tropical cyclone status on Friday. Even stronger
shear is forecast to cause the remnant low to gradually weaken
through the end of the 5-day forecast period.

Fixes based on infrared and microwave satellite imagery indicate
that Lowell has begun to lose some latitude, and the initial motion
is just south of due west (265/10 kt). The south-of-due-west
motion is forecast to continue for the next 2-3 days courtesy of
strong low- to mid-level ridging north of Lowell. The remnant low
should then gradually turn toward the west-northwest and slow down
by the end of the forecast period when it reaches a break in the
ridge ahead of a cold front north of the Hawaiian Islands. The new
NHC track forecast is similar to the previous prediction and
remains embedded within the tightly clustered guidance envelope.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 18
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
500 PM HST Thu Sep 24 2020

Lowell is now producing a small band of deep convection in the
southeastern semicircle, but as in the previous advisory it is
otherwise largely a low-level cloud swirl. Satellite intensity
estimates have decreased a little over the past 6 h, so the initial
intensity is lowered to 35 kt. The cyclone is over cool sea
surface temperatures of 24C, and it should encounter even cooler
waters during the next day or two. Between this, increasing
westerly shear, and entrainment of stable air, Lowell should
degenerate to a remnant low between 24-36 h, if not sooner. The
global models indicate that the remnant low is likely to survive
through 120 h, and the intensity forecast follows this guidance.

The initial motion is now westward or 275/10 kt. A generally
westward motion at a slightly faster forward speed is expected for
the next several days as Lowell or its remnants are steered by
easterly flow on the south side of a deep-layer ridge. The track
guidance remains tightly clustered, and the new track forecast is
changed little from the previous forecast.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 17
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
1100 AM HST Thu Sep 24 2020

Lowell is producing a small amount of deep convection over the
northeastern quadrant, but it is otherwise largely a low-level cloud
swirl. A recent partial ASCAT pass still showed an area of 35-40 kt
winds to the north of the center, and based on that data, the
initial intensity is held at 40 kt. The cyclone is already over cool
25 C waters and it is headed for even cooler waters during the next
day or two. These unfavorable oceanic conditions combined with a
stable air mass and an increase in westerly shear should cause the
cyclone to degenerate into a remnant low within the next 36 hours.
The remnant low is expected to gradually weaken through the end of
the forecast period.

The tropical storm is moving west-northwestward at about 10 kt. A
sightly faster westward motion is expected during the next several
days as the storm moves on the south side of a deep-layer high
pressure system. The models are tightly clustered, and the NHC
track forecast is similar to the previous one.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 16
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
500 AM HST Thu Sep 24 2020

Lowell hasn't changed much. Cloud tops associated with the areas of
remaining convection east of the lowly tropical storm's center have
warmed slightly during the past few hours, but not enough to change
satellite intensity estimates. The intensity is therefore held at
40 kt, in line with earlier ASCAT data.

Virtually no change was made to any aspect of the NHC forecast. A
mid-level ridge to the north of Lowell will likely steer the
tropical storm westward for the next day or two. Lowell will move
over gradually cooler waters and should weaken in response. A
favorable upper-air environment may help the tropical cyclone to
maintain its convection for up to 36 hours, but an increase in
westerly wind shear should put an end to any remaining organized
convection after that. Based on simulated satellite fields, several
models forecast that it will become a remnant low even sooner than
that. Low-level tradewind flow should take over the steering once
the cyclone becomes a shallow remnant low, resulting in a slightly
faster, but generally similar westward motion. Both the track and
intensity forecasts are nearly identical to the multi-model
consensus throughout the forecast period.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 15
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
1100 PM HST Wed Sep 23 2020

Lowell is maintaining status quo, with a few bands of deep
convection located 30 n mi or more to the east of the exposed
center. A recent ASCAT-C pass just clipped the eastern edge of the
tropical-storm-force wind field and had vectors as high as 36 to 37
kt, so it is assumed that Lowell's intensity is still 40 kt.

The available shear analyses indicate that the deep-layer shear
over Lowell is low--maybe slightly moderate--but this seems odd
given the cyclone's sheared appearance. Regardless of what the
shear is now, the relative shear magnitude is expected to begin
increasing in about 36 hours as Lowell moves closer to an
upper-level jet stream. The storm will also be moving over
gradually decreasing sea surface temperatures and into a much drier
air mass, and all of these factors should conspire to cause
weakening over the next several days. Global model guidance
indicates that Lowell should lose its deep convection and become a
remnant low by 60 hours, although the ECMWF suggests this could
happen as early as in a day or two.

Lowell has been locked into a west-northwestward motion of 285/9
kt, but the track models insist that it should turn toward the
west very soon as the subtropical ridge to its north strengthens.
The ridge is forecast to remain anchored north of Lowell for the
entire forecast period, causing a gradual acceleration toward the
west or even just south of due west into early next week. The
earlier-noted speed differences among some of the models appear to
have resolved themselves a bit, although the models overall have
sped up. In response, the new NHC track forecast is faster than
the previous prediction, and yet it is still not as fast as the
TVCE multi-model consensus aid or the HCCA model. This probably
means that additional adjustments to forecast speeds are likely in
subsequent advisories.

located near latitude 21.2 North, longitude 123.7 West. Lowell is
moving toward the west-northwest near 10 mph (17 km/h). A turn
toward the west is expected Thursday morning, with that heading and
a gradual increase in forward speed continuing through early next
week.

Maximum sustained winds are near 45 mph (75 km/h) with higher gusts.
Gradual weakening is forecast to begin by late Thursday. Lowell is
expected to weaken to a tropical depression by late Friday and
become a remnant low by early Saturday.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 14
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
500 PM HST Wed Sep 23 2020

A band of deep convection continues over the eastern portion of
Lowell's circulation, however visible satellite imagery and a 2318
UTC SSMI microwave overpass indicate that the center is exposed to
the west of that band. Subjective and objective satellite
intensity estimates have decreased and a blend those yields an
initial wind of 40 kt, which is used for this advisory.

The moderate northwesterly shear that is currently plaguing Lowell
is not expected to abate much, so little overall change in strength
in anticipated through early Thursday. After that time, gradually
decreasing sea surface temperatures and a drier and more stable air
mass is predicted to result in gradual weakening. Increasing
westerly shear in about 48 hours should be too much for the
tropical cyclone, and Lowell is expected to degenerate into a
remnant low in 60-72 hours. The updated NHC intensity forecast
is a little below the IVCN intensity consensus and favors the
slightly lower statistical guidance.

The initial motion estimate is still west-northwestward or 285/10
kt. A large deep-layer subtropical ridge to the north and northeast
of Lowell is forecast to build westward during the next few days.
This synoptic pattern should cause Lowell to turn westward
overnight and then continue on a generally westward heading for the
next several days. There are still some forward speed
(along-track) differences among the various dynamical models, but
the NHC track again uses a blend of the various consensus aids,
which typically is the best approach when those longer-range
differences are noted.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 13
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
1100 AM HST Wed Sep 23 2020

Unlike earlier today, deep convection has decreased since the
previous advisory with thunderstorms containing cloud tops to near
-70C confined to the southeastern quadrant of the circulation owing
to modest west-northwesterly vertical wind shear and Lowell moving
over a small cold pool/eddy. As a result, the low-level center has
become exposed. Dvorak current-intensity estimates from TAFB and
SAB are T3.0/45 kt, therefore the initial intensity will remain at
45 kt until new ASCAT surface wind data become available.

The initial motion estimate is 285/10 kt. Lowell lies along the
southern periphery of a large, deep-layer subtropical ridge
which has increased Lowell's forward speed slightly, likely due to
the recent decreased in the vertical depth of the convection and
circulation. The strong subtropical ridge to north of Lowell is
expected turn the cyclone westward soon, with that general motion
continuing through the remainder of the forecast period. The latest
NHC track guidance envelope remains tightly packed around the
previous forecast track, so the only change that was required
was to increase the along-track forward speed of Lowell.

The current moderate northwesterly shear is forecast by the GFS and
ECMWF to weaken sightly overnight when Lowell is forecast to move
over a warm eddy. Thus, the intensity forecast was not lowered very
much for the next 36 hours or so. By 48 hours and beyond, however,
the combination of increasing deep-layer vertical wind shear of
more than 20 kt and sea-surface temperatures decreasing to near 24
deg C is expected to induce gradual weakening, with Lowell is
forecast to degenerate into a remnant low by 96 hours. The new NHC
intensity forecast is similar to the previous advisory, and follows
a blend of the NOAA-HCCA, FSSE and IVCN intensity consensus models.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 12
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
500 AM HST Wed Sep 23 2020

Convective banding has improved a little bit since the previous
advisory, but not enough to increase the various satellite intensity
estimates. Lowell's low-level center remains near or just inside the
northern edge of the deepest convection, with the strongest and
most organized thunderstorm activity confined to the eastern and
southern portions of Lowell's circulation. The initial intensity of
45 kt is based on consensus Dvorak classifications of T3.0/45 kt
from TAFB and SAB, and a UW-CIMSS SATCON estimate of 43 kt. These
data are consistent with an overnight ASCAT-A pass of about 45 kt.

The initial motion estimate is now 285/08 kt. Lowell lies along the
southern periphery of a large, deep-layer subtropical ridge, and
this is the dominant synoptic-scale steering feature for the next 5
days. As a result, the cyclone is expected to move
west-northwestward today, followed by a turn toward the west on
Thursday, with that motion continuing through the weekend and into
early next week. The latest NHC model guidance is tightly packed
around the previous forecast track, thus requiring no significant
changes to the previous advisory track.

Low-to-moderate northwesterly to northerly vertical wind shear is
forecast to affect Lowell for the next 60 hours or so while the
cyclone hugs the 25- to 26-deg-C sea-surface temperature (SST)
gradient. As a result, little change in intensity is forecast during
that time. Thereafter, the combination of cooler SSTs and increasing
wind shear from the west is expected to induce slow but steady
weakening, with Lowell degenerating into a remnant low by 96 hours.
The latest NHC intensity forecast is essentially just an update of
the previous advisory, and closely follows a blend of the NOAA-HCCA,
FSSE and IVCN intensity consensus models.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 11
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
1100 PM HST Tue Sep 22 2020

Lowell's center is located near the northern edge of a band of deep
convection which extends over the eastern and southern portion of
the circulation due to moderate northwesterly shear in the
mid-levels below the cirrus layer. That part of the circulation
also happens to be where the tropical storm force winds are
predominantly situated, and a recent ASCAT pass showed that the
strongest winds have increased to near 45 kt. Lowell's circulation
will be straddling a tight sea surface temperature gradient during
the next few days, with the center moving over gradually cooler
waters and toward a drier air mass. As a result, little change in
strength is expected during the next couple of days, and some
weakening should begin by day 3 when water temperatures fall below
25 degrees Celsius and moderate westerly or southwesterly shear
sets in. The new NHC intensity forecast is largely an update of
the previous prediction and closely follows the HCCA, Florida State
Superensemble, and IVCN intensity consensus. Lowell is likely to
lose its deep convection and degenerate to a remnant low by day 4.

Lowell has been moving steadily toward the west-northwest, or
295/10 kt, steered by a mid-tropospheric high pressure area
centered just off the west coast of the Baja California peninsula.
The subtropical ridge is expected to become a little more
established to the north of Lowell, and that should cause the storm
to turn westward by 36 hours and continue at that heading through
the end of the forecast period. There continues to be very little
cross-track spread among the track guidance, and the most
noteworthy differences are the forward speeds depicted by the
models, bracketed by the speedy ECMWF and the more sluggish GFS and
COAMPS-TC models. The models overall have continued to trend
faster, and the new NHC track forecast is again pushed ahead of the
previous prediction, lying close to the TVCE consensus and the HCCA
aid.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 10
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
800 PM PDT Tue Sep 22 2020

Recent microwave satellite imagery has been extremely helpful in
diagnosing the structure of Lowell, as well as locating the center
of the tropical storm. The imagery indicates the the center is
located to the north of the bursting area of convection, and that
the overall structure has not changed much since this afternoon. A
blend of the latest subjective Dvorak T- and CI-numbers and the
earlier ASCAT data support an initial wind speed of 40 kt.
Although the shear associated with the upper-tropospheric flow is
low, there appears to be some stronger shear in a layer beneath that
level which is causing the displacement of the convection to the
south of the low-level center. Given the current structure, only
slight strengthening is predicted over the next 24 hours, and
shortly after that time Lowell will be moving near an SST gradient
and into an area of less favorable thermodynamic conditions. As a
result, little change in strength is shown between 24-60 h, but
gradual weakening should begin after that time when Lowell moves
over cooler waters and into an area of increasing southwesterly
shear. With Lowell moving along the SST gradient for the next
several days, a track north of the official forecast could result in
both a faster rate of weakening, and the system becoming
post-tropical much sooner than indicated below, but a track farther
south could result in slightly more intensification. The NHC
intensity forecast is a little above the SHIPS guidance and is in
best agreement with the HFIP corrected consensus model.

Lowell is moving west-northwestward at 10 kt. A west-northwestward
motion is expected, to the southwest of a subtropical ridge near
Baja California. The ridge is forecast to build to the north of
Lowell over the next couple of days which should impart a westward
turn by late Wednesday, with a general westward heading continuing
through the remainder of the forecast period. Although there is
little cross-track spread in the guidance models, there are
significant speed differences (along-track spread) with the ECMWF
model much faster than the GFS. The NHC track is slightly faster
than the previous forecast to be closer to the various consensus
aids and the GFS and UKMET ensemble means.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 9
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
200 PM PDT Tue Sep 22 2020

Lowell has been undergoing a bursting pattern today, with the
original mass dissipating and a new one developing in its place.
This is typical of sheared tropical cyclones. Just in the past
couple of hours, visible satellite imagery has shown a low-level
swirl ejecting to the northwest from the deep convection. Based on
the center position from an ASCAT overpass around 1700 UTC, the
exposed swirl may indeed be the primary center of the cyclone. This
same ASCAT overpass showed peak winds of 37 kt, and based on the
evolution of the cyclone's structure in the past couple of hours,
the initial intensity is being lowered to 40 kt. The northeasterly
shear causing the developmental issues for Lowell may abate somewhat
in a day or so. This may provide the cyclone with an opportunity for
some strengthening before it reaches cooler waters in a couple of
days. After 72 h, Lowell is forecast to begin moving over waters of
24-25 degrees C, and enter an increasingly hostile environment with
strong westerly shear and mid-level relative humidity values around
30 percent by the end of the forecast period. These conditions
should cause the cyclone to weaken starting late this week. There is
a possibility that the cyclone could lose its deep convection late
in the forecast period, and although the latest advisory does not
indicate it, Lowell could degenerate into a remnant low by day 5.
The latest NHC intensity forecast is near the various intensity
consensus values.

The initial motion of the cyclone is 295/12 kt, but this is
uncertain due to the recent northwestern motion of the low-level
center. A general west-northwest motion is expected through
Wednesday as Lowell moves south of a subtropical ridge. A turn to
the west is expected Wednesday night as the ridge changes its
orientation slightly. The latest NHC track forecast is little
changed from the previous one and is near the tightly clustered
track guidance.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 8
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
800 AM PDT Tue Sep 22 2020

Lowell's satellite appearance has improved slightly over the past
several hours, with the mass of deep convection becoming a little
more symmetrical. However, the center still appears to be near the
northeastern edge of this convection. A blend of the latest
satellite intensity estimates from both TAFB and SAB suggest that
the cyclone has strengthened, and the initial intensity has been
increased to 45 kt. The north-northeasterly shear is expected to
persist for the next few days, and the cyclone is only expected to
remain over waters warmer than 26 degrees C for the 24-36 h.
Therefore, only some slow strengthening is expected during the
next day or so. At around 72 h, Lowell is expected to begin moving
over waters of around 25 degrees C while entering a drier and more
stable airmass. These conditions should cause the cyclone to weaken.
Late in the forecast period, model guidance suggests that Lowell
will encounter strong westerly wind shear. There is a possibility
that the cyclone could lose its deep convection once that shear sets
in, and although the latest advisory does not indicate it, Lowell
could degenerate into a remnant low by the end of the 5-day
forecast period. The latest NHC intensity forecast is near the
corrected consensus HCCA.

The storm is estimated to be moving 290/11 kt, on the southern side
of a subtropical ridge. This motion should continue through
Wednesday, followed by a turn to the west as the ridge changes its
orientation slightly. The latest NHC track forecast is near the
previous one through 24 h and is only a little north of it
thereafter due to a shift in the track guidance.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 7
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
200 AM PDT Tue Sep 22 2020

Lowell continues to be affected by north-northeasterly shear, and
the center is estimated to be located near the north-northeastern
edge of the main convective mass. Banding features are not well
defined at this time. The intensity estimate remains near 40 kt in
agreement with recent scatterometer data. The storm should move
over marginally warm waters during the next several days, with some
decrease in shear. Therefore the official forecast shows gradual
strengthening. This is somewhat above the latest intensity model
consensus.

The cyclone is estimated to be moving at around 285/11 which is
close to the climatological mean. The track forecast appears to be
quite straightforward. Lowell should move on a west-northwestward
to westward path along the southern side of a subtropical ridge for
the next several days, and the NHC track prediction lies between
the model consensus and the previous official forecast.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 6
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
900 PM MDT Mon Sep 21 2020

Lowell's satellite presentation has changed little during the past
several hours. Lowell remains a sheared tropical cyclone with a
few new bursts of deep convection evident to the west of the rather
poorly defined and exposed surface circulation center. The initial
intensity is held at 40 kt for this advisory and is in best
agreement with the various subjective and objective satellite
intensity estimates.

Modest northeasterly shear is still impinging over the eastern half
of the cyclone and this inhibiting factor should relax within the
next 12 hours or so. As a result, Lowell should strengthen with
time through the 48 to 60 hour period as the cyclone traverses warm
water and continues moving within a moist surrounding environment.
Through the remaining portion of the forecast, Lowell is expected to
enter a more stable and drier marine layer which should cause the
cyclone to gradual weaken. The NHC intensity forecast is close to
the NOAA HCCA consensus and the Decay SHIPS, and above the LGEM
which indicates very little change in strength during the next 5
days.

The initial motion is estimated to be westward, or 280/11 kt.
Low- to mid tropospheric easterly flow produced by a subtropical
ridge anchored to the north of Lowell should steer it in a
generally west-northwestward motion through Wednesday night.
Around the 60 hour period, a turn back toward the west is expected
as the aforementioned ridge builds farther west. The official
forecast is basically an update of the previous advisory and is
close to the HFIP Corrected Consensus Approach model.

Tropical Storm Lowell Discussion Number 5
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
300 PM MDT Mon Sep 21 2020

Tropical Depression Seventeen-E has continued to have a ragged
appearance in satellite imagery during the day. The circulation is
elongated, with the main center just northeast of a poorly organized
convective mass and a secondary vorticity maximum well to the
north-northeast near Socorro Island. However, recent scatterometer
data showed an area of 35-40 kt winds to the south and southeast of
the main center. Based on this, the depression is upgraded to
Tropical Storm Lowell with an initial intensity of 40 kt.

The initial motion is now 290/14 kt. There are no significant
changes in the track forecast philosophy, the track forecast
guidance, or the track forecast since the last advisory. Lowell is
being steered by a large low- to mid-level ridge to the north and
northwest, and this ridge is forecast to persist through the
forecast period. The track guidance shows that the system should
continue west-northwestward for about 36 h, followed by a westward
motion through 120 h. The track guidance is still very tightly
clustered, and the new forecast track is near the various consensus
models.

Lowell is still experiencing some easterly shear, which the models
suggest should abate some in the next 12 h or so. However, the
poor organization of the storm suggests it may take a while to
respond to the more favorable environment. Thus, the new intensity
forecast continues the trend of the old forecast in showing slow
strengthening for the first 36-48 h. After that time, the intensity
will be strongly dependent on where the center is in relation to the
strong sea-surface temperature gradient. Since the forecast track
is basically unchanged, the new intensity forecast has only minor
tweaks from the previous forecast based on the forecast track
keeping the system over 25-26C water temperatures through 120 h.
However, any motion north of the forecast track would bring the
center over colder water and lead to a system weaker than forecast,
while any motion south of the track would keep it over warmer water
and possibly allow the cyclone to become a hurricane. The intensity
forecast remains low confidence.

Tropical Depression Seventeen-E Discussion Number 4
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
900 AM MDT Mon Sep 21 2020

Although the circulation still appears to be elongated, the
depression has become a little better organized during the past
several hours, with the low-level center closer to the large mass
of convection in the southwestern semicircle. Satellite intensity
estimates from TAFB and SAB are 30 kt, so the initial intensity is
nudged upward to 30 kt.

The initial motion is now 290/12. The depression is being steered
by a large low- to mid-level ridge to the north and northwest, and
this ridge is forecast to persist through the forecast period. The
track guidance shows that the system should continue west-
northwestward for about 36 h, followed by a westward motion through
120 h. The track guidance is very tightly clustered, and the new
forecast track is near the various consensus models.

Current indications are that the current easterly shear should
subside a little during the next 24-36 h, and this should allow the
system to become a tropical storm. As noted in the previous
advisory, the intensity after 36 h will be strongly dependent on
where the center is in relation to the strong sea surface
temperature gradient. The new intensity forecast is similar to the
previous forecast based on the forecast track keeping the
system over 25-26C water temperatures through 120 h. However, any
motion north of the forecast track would bring the center over
colder water and lead to a system weaker than forecast, while any
motion south of the track would keep it over warmer water and
possibly allow the cyclone to become a hurricane. As might have
guessed, this is a low confidence intensity forecast.

Tropical Depression Seventeen-E Discussion Number 3
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
300 AM MDT Mon Sep 21 2020

The depression has really gone downhill overnight. While a small
well-defined center probably still exists, a pair of ASCAT passes
between 4 and 5 UTC showed that the surface circulation of the
depression is generally elongated, with a large area of light and
variable winds where you would expect north and northwest winds.
Deep convection is displaced well to the west of the estimated
center position due to persistent easterly shear. The highest winds
in either ASCAT pass were just below 25 kt, so that remains the
intensity for this advisory.

The depression has apparently accelerated west-northwestward, with
an extremely uncertain motion estimate of 285/11 kt. A turn toward
the west is anticipated by Wednesday and extensive ridging to the
north will likely keep the cyclone heading generally westward
thereafter through the end of the forecast period. This track will
take the cyclone parallel to an SST gradient that will have
implications on the intensity forecast.

The poor organization of the depression suggests that any
strengthening will be slow to occur during the next day or two.
Moderate easterly shear will likely continue for at least another
couple days, but the cyclone could find itself in a quite favorable
upper-air environment in a few days. If it is located on the warm
side of the SST gradient, some strengthening is likely, though
surrounding dry air will likely be a limiting factor for rapid any
intensification. One model with a southern track, the HWRF, even
suggests it could become a hurricane later this week. If the system
moves a little farther north that currently forecast, little
strengthening will be likely and it could even become a remnant low
at some point during the next 5 days. The NHC intensity forecast is
similar to the previous one, but shows a slightly slower rate of
strengthening for the first three days.

Tropical Depression Seventeen-E Discussion Number 2
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
900 PM MDT Sun Sep 20 2020

Last few visible images showed that the depression's surface
circulation remains poorly organized with a small swirl of clouds
displaced just to the north of the deep convective mass. The
initial intensity is held at 25 kt based on the unchanged
subjective intensity estimates from TAFB and SAB.

The statistical-dynamical intensity guidance and the skilled
consensus models all point to steady intensification through day 3.
Toward the end of the period, the tropical cyclone should encounter
an inhibiting dry stable air mass and cooler oceanic surface
temperatures, which should lead to a gradual weakening trend. The
NHC intensity forecast shows a peak intensity just under hurricane
strength on Wednesday and is just below the HCCA intensity
consensus and close to the Decay SHIPS.

The initial motion is estimated to be west-northwestward at 6 kt,
and this motion is predicted to continue through Wednesday. The
subtropical ridge currently steering the cyclone is forecast to
build farther westward over the tropical eastern Pacific which
should induce a westward turn toward the end of the week. The NHC
forecast is basically an update of the previous one and based on
the various consensus aids.

Tropical Depression Seventeen-E Discussion Number 1
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP172020
300 PM MDT Sun Sep 20 2020

The area of disturbed weather several hundred miles south of the
southern tip of Baja California has developed enough organized deep
convection and a well-enough defined center to declare it a tropical
cyclone. This is supported by subjective Dvorak classifications
from both SAB and TAFB with an initial intensity of 25 kt. The
initial motion is an uncertain 275 degrees at 9 kt.

As the system should be moving over warm 29C SSTs, encountering
moist mid-level humidities, and experiencing low to moderate amounts
of tropospheric vertical shear, steady intensification is expected
through the next three days. Around days four and five, the tropical
cyclone should encounter both drier air and cooler SSTs, likely
curtailing any further development and leading toward slow
weakening. The intensity forecast is between the bullish dynamical
models calling for a peak at a Category 1 hurricane in about three
days, and the bearish statistical guidance suggesting a moderate to
high-end tropical storm at the system's peak.

The track models are in much better agreement with all suggesting a
turn toward the west-northwest at a slightly faster forward speed
for the next three days, under the steering influence of a narrow
deep-layer ridge north of the system. By day four, an amplifying
ridge north of the tropical cyclone should turn it back toward the
west again. The track forecast is based upon the HCCA corrected
consensus technique.
