EPAC: BUD - Post-Tropical

#1 Postby cycloneye » Fri Jun 08, 2018 6:37 am

Shower and thunderstorm activity associated with a broad area of low
pressure located a few hundred miles south of the Gulf of
Tehuantepec has increased during the past several hours, but remains
disorganized. Upper-level winds are forecast to become conducive
for development later today, and a tropical depression or tropical
storm is expected to form over the weekend while the system moves
westward to west-northwestward off the coast of southern Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...80 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.

I think is the first time since I have been watching the tropics ( a long time ago) since that a system with 80% in 2 days is not a invest.

:uarrow: Also considering this system probably will effect land. Land-falling in Baja. This one won't be as relaxing as watching Aletta RI

Agreed. This one will have a closer track to Mexican coast and then comes Cabo San Lucas/Baja California Sur.

@webberweather
Residents in Mexico, SW US, & even the Plains should keep tabs on Invest #92E in the EP. The remnants of #Aletta are forecast to weaken the Rockies subtropical high, which might draw (eventual) Hurricane #Bud north, possibly leading to more rain in these areas in a week or two.

This should be rapidly weakening by the time it gets close to land. SST's there aren't too warm yet.

90%-90%

A low pressure system located a few hundred miles south-southwest of
the Gulf of Tehuantepec is showing signs organization, and the
associated shower and thunderstorm activity has continued to
increase this morning. Environmental conditions are forecast to be
favorable for development throughout the next several days and a
tropical depression or tropical storm is expected to form over the
weekend while the system moves westward to west-northwestward off
the coast of southern Mexico.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...high...90 percent.
* Formation chance through 5 days...high...90 percent.

OPENED BASED ON ANTICIPATED RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF THE SYSTEM. UPPER
LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE DISTURBANCE IS IN AN AREA OF MODERATE
(15-20 KTS) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS), STRONG EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW,
AND WARM (28-29C) SSTS. THE DISTURBANCE IS TRACKING INTO AN AREA OF
LOW (5-10 KTS) VWS WHICH WILL ENHANCE DEVELOPMENT. GLOBAL MODELS ARE
IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT THE DISTURBANCE WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND
REACH WARNING CRITERIA AS IT MOVES TO THE NORTH-NORTHWEST. MAXIMUM
SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 18 TO 23 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA
LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1005 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24
HOURS IS HIGH.

It seems the models have backed off on the intensity a bit compared to what they were showing a few days ago. I'm not that great at model and condition analysis though, so what are some thoughts from some of you with more experience? Still thinking there's a good chance of a major from this or becoming less bullish?

It will traverse the warmest waters available in the Western Hemisphere so plenty of fuel for intensification. Upper conditions are decent and not much worse than what Aletta had. It will probably become a major.

High-resolution Euro has this bottoming out near 950mb. That's a cat.3 in itself. Since the Euro is usually conservative, it could be another Cat.4 on our hands.

Thank you. I was looking at the SSTs wondering why the intensity guidance seemed low. Was wondering if there was something going on with the upper conditions that would hinder 92, but if they're comparable to what Aletta has had, it does seem like a major is quite possible.
Fingers crossed this heads farther west and avoids Mexico/Baja.
