This thing is massive. GFS has the remnants of Lorena moving slowly over Texas with an abundant amount of moisture.

Tropical Storm Lorena Discussion Number 4
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP122025
Issued by the NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
200 PM MST Tue Sep 02 2025

A 1548z METOP-B ASCAT pass provided solid coverage of Lorena's
overall wind field with also resulted in a northward adjustment to
the initial position. Since the ASCAT pass, GOES-East visible
imagery continues to show improving overall organization within an
ideal environment for further strengthening. Symmetric banding
features support Dvorak DT numbers of 3.0 and 3.5 from TAFB and SAB,
respectively. The recent inner core convection bursting with cloud
tops below -80C further suggest a strengthening trend, even without
recent microwave imagery to analyze its inner core structure. The
initial intensity is set at 45 kt, as a blend of the two operational
Dvorak estimates, along with other objective intensity estimates.

Since the prior advisory, Lorena is moving a bit faster at 13 kt to
the northwest as its being steered by the southwestern periphery of
the larger scale mid-level ridge. With the small northward
readjustment of position, the northwestward track will continue
through the next 48 hours, but this brings the center and wind field
closer to Baja California compared to the prior track forecast. As
such, the overall forecast track is a bit faster and shifted north
and east relative to prior forecast, following trends in the latest
track guidance. Due to the uncertainty that Tropical Storm force
winds may affect areas along the southwestern coasts of Baja
California Sur, the Government of Mexico has issued Tropical Storm
Watches from Cabo San Lucas northward to Cabo San Lazaro. Any
further deviations north and/or eastward may result in further
expansion of watches and/or warning conditions over the next 24 to
48 hours. Deep layer vertical shear and overall decaying
sea-surface environment will slow the forward speed, with slow
recurvature expected after 48 hours west of Baja California Sur.
The shear results in an expanding track forecast suite, though will
continue to prior trends and overall means recurving the cyclone
toward the central Baja California with initial landfall forecast
after 72 hours. What remains of the circulation will cross the
Peninsula tracking northeast with a second landfall along coastal
Sonora towards the end of the forecast period.

Lorena is expected to remain fairly small inner core, though with
ample moisture and warm sea-surface temperatures for the next 24 to
36 h, forecasts are for steady intensification toward hurricane
status by Wednesday. There is some potential that Lorena may rapidly
intensify in the short term given its structure and favorable
environment. As Lorena crosses the 26 C isotherm in 2-3 days,
vertical wind shear will also increase and the overall intensity
should start to weaken by late in the week. As the cyclone turns
northeastward, slow weakening is expected with eventual dissipation
over Sonora by Saturday. The intensity forecast is on the higher
end of the guidance envelope.


Key Messages:

1. Heavy rainfall associated with Tropical Storm Lorena will begin
to affect Baja California Sur on Wednesday, and southwestern Sonora
by Thursday. This will increase the risk of life-threatening flash
floods and mudslides, especially in areas of higher terrain.

2. Lorena is forecast to approach the Baja California peninsula
later this week. Due to the uncertainty that Tropical Storm force
winds may affect areas along the southwestern coasts of Baja
California Sur, the Government of Mexico has issued Tropical Storm
Watches from Cabo San Lucas northward to Cabo San Lazaro. Residents
should closely monitor the latest forecast updates and ensure that
they have their preparedness plan in place.

Tropical Storm Lorena Discussion Number 5
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP122025
800 PM MST Tue Sep 02 2025

A pair of AMSR2 and GMI microwave passes from several hours ago
revealed that Lorena's structure has improved significantly through
the day, with the 37-GHZ channel in particular showing a
well-defined cyan ring. The center is embedded beneath a Central
Dense Overcast, and Dvorak intensity estimates from TAFB and SAB
are a consensus T3.5/55 kt. This is also supported by some of the
UW-CIMSS objective numbers, and the initial intensity is therefore
set--possibly conservatively given the structure--at 55 kt.

Lorena has a low-level structure and small size that would make it
a prime suspect for rapid intensification, especially since it will
be in an environment of low shear and over warm ocean temperatures
for the next 36 hours. In fact, the SHIPS Rapid Intensification
(RI) index now shows a 3 in 4 chance of a 30-kt increase in
Lorena's winds over the next 24 hours. The NHC intensity forecast
therefore explicitly shows RI during the next day or so and most
closely follows the SHIPS and LGEM models, which are the highest
guidance, during that time. After 36 hours, increasing shear and
colder water temperatures are expected lead to weakening, which
itself could be rapid due to Lorena's small size. Although there
is significant uncertainty on where Lorena will end up in 4-5 days
(see discussion below), the cyclone will likely not exist anymore
by day 5, and that is when dissipation is shown in the forecast.

Lorena continues to move northwestward, or 315/12 kt. The first 36
hours or so of the track forecast are fairly straightforward, with
a slower northwestward motion expected while the cyclone moves
around the western periphery of a mid-level high centered over
Mexico. Things are trickier after 36 hours. Lorena will be moving
through a weakness in the subtropical ridge, but how much northward
progress it makes will depend on how long it remains strong. A
minority of models, particularly the GFS, keep a stronger Lorena
moving northeastward across the Baja California peninsula toward
Sonora. However, moderate to strong southwesterly shear is likely
to set in over Lorena in 48-72 hours, and a good chunk of the other
models, including many of the GEFS ensemble members, keep a
weakening Lorena offshore the west coast of the Baja California
peninsula with landfall never occurring. This new NHC forecast
blends the previous official forecast with the latest HCCA, Florida
State Superensemble, and GEFS ensemble mean, showing a slower
motion on day 4 and 5, and introducing the possibility that Lorena
doesn't reach mainland Mexico as a tropical cyclone.


Key Messages:

1. Heavy rainfall associated with Tropical Storm Lorena will begin
to affect Baja California Sur on Wednesday, southwestern Sonora by
Thursday, and contribute to heavy rainfall concerns across Arizona
late Wednesday through Friday. This will increase the risk of
life-threatening flash floods and mudslides across Mexico,
especially in areas of higher terrain. Isolated to scattered
instances of flash flooding are possible across Arizona through
Friday.

2. Although rapid intensification is possible through Wednesday
while Lorena is offshore, the storm is expected to weaken while it
approaches the Baja California peninsula on Thursday and Friday.
Regardless, tropical storm conditions are possible through Thursday
along portions of the west coast of Baja California Sur.
Interests in Baja California Sur should closely monitor the latest
forecast updates.

Hurricane Lorena Discussion Number 6
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP122025
200 AM MST Wed Sep 03 2025

Satellite imagery and data from the Mexican radar at Cabo San Lucas
indicate that Lorena continues to become better organized, with the
radar imagery showing an eyewall wrapped 50-70 percent of the way
around the center. Satellite intensity estimates are now in the
55-65 kt range, with subjective estimates from TAFB and SAB being
65 kt. Based on these data, the initial intensity is increased to
65 kt and Lorena is upgraded to a hurricane.

Steady to rapid intensification is likely during the next 24 h,
and while the forecast peak intensity of 85 kt is above the upper
edge of the intensity guidance it might be conservative. After
that time, Lorena is forecast to move over cooler sea surface
temperatures and into an area of southwesterly vertical shear.
This should cause significant weakening, and Lorena is expected to
weaken back to a tropical storm by 60 h. There is significant
uncertainty as to whether Lorena will make landfall in Baja
California Sur (see discussion below). If it does, the system
should continue weakening and dissipate over northwestern Mexico by
120 h. If it doesn't, the cyclone should continue to weaken over
cold water, with dissipation likely west of Baja California Sur
by 120 h.

The initial motion is now 320/12 kt. The first 24 h or so of
the track forecast remain fairly straightforward, with a slower
northwestward motion expected while the cyclone moves around the
western periphery of a mid-level high centered over Mexico. After
that time, Lorena will be moving into a weakness in the subtropical
ridge as it starts to encounter the less favorable environment.
The GFS model maintains a stronger and deeper Lorena and breaks open
the weakness in about 36 h, allowing the cyclone to recurve
north-northeastward into northwestern Mexico. The ECMWF and
Canadian models have a weaker Lorena and take about 12 h longer to
break open the ridge. This results in Lorena shearing apart with
the low-level center turning westward over the Pacific west of Baja
California Sur. Based on current intensity trends, the track
forecast leans toward the GFS solution and shows Lorena crossing
Baja California Sur in 60-72 h. However, there is still the
possibility that the cyclone does not reach the coast of Mexico. The
new forecast track is similar to the previous track and lies along
the east side of the consensus models.


Key Messages:

1. Heavy rainfall associated with Tropical Storm Lorena will
continue to impact Baja California Sur, moving into southeastern
Baja California and southwestern Sonora by Thursday, and contribute
to heavy rainfall concerns across Arizona late Wednesday through
Friday. This will increase the risk of life-threatening flash floods
and mudslides across Mexico, especially in areas of higher terrain.
Isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding are possible
across Arizona through Friday.

2. Although rapid intensification is possible through tonight while
Lorena is offshore, the storm is expected to weaken while it
approaches the Baja California peninsula on Thursday and Thursday
night. Regardless, tropical storm conditions are likely along
portions of the coast of Baja California Sur where a Tropical Storm
Warning has been issued. Tropical Storm conditions are also
possible through Friday along other portions of the west coast of
Baja California Sur where a Tropical Storm Watch is in effect.
Interests in Baja California Sur should closely monitor the latest
forecast updates.

Hurricane Lorena Discussion Number 7
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP122025
800 AM MST Wed Sep 03 2025

Satellite imagery and radar data from the Los Cabos radar in Mexico
indicate that Lorena continues to become better organized. Radar
imagery shows Lorena's eye becoming better defined, with a
completely closed and circular eyewall. Dvorak estimates from TAFB
and SAB were both T-4.0/65 kt, with the UW-CIMSS numbers ranging
from 55-68 kt. However, the improvement over the last few hours
seen in radar images and GOES West satellite images suggest that
Lorena is likely stronger now. The initial intensity is estimated
at 70 kt, and it is possible this may be a bit conservative. An Air
Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft is currently enroute to
Lorena, which should provide a better estimate of the intensity
in a couple of hours from now.

Lorena has rapidly intensified over the past 24 hours. Continued
rapid strengthening is likely for another 12 to 18 hours as Lorena
remains over warm water and in low wind shear conditions, and the
peak intensity forecast of 85 kt is maintained. By 24 hours, the
hurricane is expected to cross the 26C sea-surface temperature
isotherm while southwesterly wind shear also begins to significantly
increase. These conditions are expected to lead to rapid weakening
beginning by Thursday afternoon. The official forecast is above
most of the intensity guidance for the first 24 hours, but is closer
to the consensus aids thereafter.

The initial motion is faster now toward the northwest, or 320/14 kt.
Not much has changed with the track forecast reasoning. There are
still two camps of models. The majority of the guidance, including
the GFS, shows Lorena progressing faster and farther east, with
landfall in Baja California Sur followed by a turn toward the
northeast. But a significant minority of models, including the
ECMWF, CMC, and UKMET, slow down Lorena immediately, with a track
farther west, and then dissipate the system over water without
making landfall. The steering is such that a stronger cyclone would
be more likely to be in the faster and farther east camp of models.
However, if the hurricane rapidly weakens by Thursday night and
starts to decouple due to the aforementioned increasing
southwesterly shear, then the low-level circulation could
potentially get left behind. The new NHC forecast shows a faster
forward motion over the next 36 hours with a track slightly to the
right of the previous NHC track. Due to the rightward shift, the
chance of tropical storm force winds impacting portions of Baja
California Sur is increasing. Additionally, there is very high
confidence that heavy rainfall amounts leading to significant
flooding will occur in Baja California Sur, especially since the
southwesterly upper-level winds favor deep convection to the right
side of Lorena by late Thursday. At 48 h and beyond, the new NHC
forecast is similar to, but slightly to the left of, the previous
NHC forecast track.


Key Messages:

1. Heavy rainfall associated with Tropical Storm Lorena will
continue to impact Baja California Sur, moving into southeastern
Baja California and southwestern Sonora by Thursday, and
contributing to heavy rainfall concerns across Arizona from late
Wednesday through Friday. This will increase the risk of
life-threatening flash floods and mudslides across Mexico,
especially in areas of higher terrain. Isolated to scattered
instances of flash flooding are possible across Arizona through
Friday.

2. The center of Lorena is forecast to move parallel to, but
offshore of, the southwest coast of the Baja Peninsula today, and
then move closer to the west-central coast of the peninsula on
Thursday. Regardless of the exact track, tropical storm conditions
are likely along portions of the coast of Baja California Sur where
a Tropical Storm Warning has been issued. Tropical Storm conditions
are also possible through tonight along the southwestern coast of
Baja California Sur where a Tropical Storm Watch is in effect.
Interests elsewhere in Baja California Sur should closely monitor
the latest forecast updates.

3. Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions will affect
portions of the southern and western coasts of Baja California Sur
during the next couple of days.
