Re: The Name That Storm game, series III
Here's one that didn't cause much damage.
HURRICANE --- HAS MOVED INLAND OVER NEWFOUNDLAND THIS MORNING AND AT 11 AM EST...1600Z...WAS LOCATED BY LAND STATION REPORTS AND AIRCRAFT RECONNAISSANCE NEAR LATITUDE 48.5 NORTH LONGITUDE 57.5 WEST WHICH IS NEAR THE CENTER OF NEWFOUNDLAND. THE STORM HAS BEEN MOVING A BIT FASTER THAN 40 MPH DURING THE EARLY MORNING BUT NOW OVER LAND IT WILL SLOW UP SOME AND RAPIDLY LOSE HURRICANE CHARACTERISTICS.

Re: The Name That Storm game, series III
THE HURRICANE HUNTERS CONFIRMED THE PREVIOUS ESTIMATE FOR THE
LOCATION OF THE CENTER OF CIRCULATION. THE CYCLONE IS APPARENTLY
MOVING IN A SMALL CYCLONIC LOOP. FOR NOW...IT WILL BE CONSIDERED
QUASI-STATIONARY. THE AIRCRAFT ENCOUNTERED 51 KT WINDS AT THE 1500
FT FLIGHT LEVEL. USING THIS...THE SYSTEM IS UPGRADED TO TROPICAL
STORM XXXXX WITH 40 KT SURFACE WINDS. THE CIRCULATION IS QUITE
SMALL WITH RADIUS OF MAXIMUM WINDS REPORTED TO BE 8 NM AT FLIGHT
LEVEL.
THE 12Z AVN RESEMBLES THE PREDECESSORS. SECONDARY SHORT-WAVE
TROUGHS MOVING OFFSHORE FROM THE U.S. SE COAST LEAVE A WEAKNESS IN
THE HEIGHT FIELD IN THAT AREA AFTER THE INITIAL STRONG SYSTEM PASSES
OFFSHORE. A MINOR RIDGE SETTLES IN OVER THE SE UNITED STATES. THIS
ALLOWS FOR A SLOW NW TO NNW MOVEMENT DURING THE NEXT TWO DAYS...AS
SHOWN BY ALL TRACK GUIDANCE AND THE OFFICIAL FORECAST.
IN CONTRAST TO THE RUN AT 06Z...THE 12Z GFDL SHOWS THE PRIMARY
FEATURES AT 200 MB LOCATED A LITTLE FARTHER TO THE EAST...WITH THE
ANTICYCLONE CENTERED OVER THE YUCATAN PENINSULA AND THE DOWNSTREAM
TROUGH AXIS A BIT TO THE EAST OF XXXXX. THIS IS A LITTLE MORE
FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR INTENSIFICATION THAN FORECAST BY THAT
MODEL 6 HOURS AGO...AND COULD BE WHY IT IS SHOWING MORE
STRENGTHENING. THE AVN HAS THIS COUPLET CENTERED EVEN FARTHER EAST
WITH THE HIGH NEAR XXXXX--A VERY FAVORABLE PATTERN. XXXX IS NOW
FORECAST TO REACH HURRICANE STRENGTH WITHIN 36 HOURS.
WHILE WATCHES AND WARNINGS ARE NOT YET NECESSARY...INTERESTS IN THE
WESTERN CARIBBEAN SHOULD CONTINUE MONITORING THE PROGRESS OF XXXXX

ALTHOUGH SURFACE LAND AND SHIP REPORTS ARE LACKING AT THIS
TIME... THE SATELLITE IMAGERY CONTINUES TO SHOW THE TROPICAL
DEPRESSION LOOKING IMPRESSIVE. DVORAK TECHNIQUE DOES
NOT ALLOW CLASSIFICATION AT THIS TIME DUE TO INVOLVEMENT
WITH LAND... BUT BANDING FEATURES SUGGEST TROPICAL STORM
STRENGTH EVEN WITH INHIBITING EFFECTS OF LAND. THUS... BASED
ON SATELLITE IMAGERY THE SYSTEM WILL BE UPGRADED TO TROPICAL
STORM...AND THE NAME WILL NOW COME FROM THE EAST PACIFIC LIST
...<STORM NAME>.
THIS NAMING PROCESS IS CONSISTENT WITH WHAT HAS BEEN DONE IN
THE PAST. WHEN NAMED TROPICAL STORMS MOVE FROM THE ATLANTIC
BASIN TO THE EASTERN PACIFIC BASIN...THEY ARE GIVEN A NEW
NAME. IRENE 1971 PASSING ACROSS NICARAGUA BECAME OLIVIA IN
THE EAST PACIFIC. FIFI 1974 PASSING ALONG THE COAST OF
HONDURAS BECAME ORLENE IN THE EAST PACIFIC.
THE FORECAST TRACK WILL BE INITIALLY ADJUSTED TO THE NORTH
BASED ON MOST RECENT SATELLITE POSITION ESTIMATE. THE CURRENT
DEEP LAYER MEAN FLOW SHOULD STEER THE SYSTEM TOWARD THE WEST
FOR THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AFTER THAT TIME PERIOD...THE
NMC PROGS SHOW A WEAKNESS TO THE NORTH...AND THE STORM SHOULD
GRADUALLY TURN MORE TOWARD THE WEST NORTHWEST. THE OUTFLOW
PATTERN OVER <STORM> STILL LOOKS IMPRESSIVE...AND WE
EXPECT TO SEE SOME CONTINUED STRENGTHENING AS THE
SYSTEM MOVES ACROSS THE WARM WATERS OF THE PACIFIC.
IF THE STORM TAKES A TRACK CLOSER TO THE COAST OF
CENTRAL AMERICA...HOWEVER...THIS STRENGTHENING MAY
BE LESS THAN WHAT IS FORECAST.
