Hurricane Jeanne Advisory Number 40
Statement as of 11:00 am EDT on September 23, 2004
...Jeanne strengthens a little while moving slowly westward...
a tropical storm watch remains in effect for the central Bahamas...
including Cat Island...the Exumas...Long Island...Rum Cay...and
San Salvador. A tropical storm watch means that tropical storm
conditions are possible in the watch area within 36 hr.
A Hurricane Watch may be required for the northwestern Bahamas later
today.
Interests in the northwest Bahamas...and on the Florida Peninsula...
should closely monitor the progress of Jeanne.
At 11 am EDT...1500z...the center of Hurricane Jeanne was located
near latitude 25.6 north...longitude 69.7 west or about 465
miles... 745 km...east of great abaco island.
Jeanne is moving toward the west near 5 mph... 7 km/hr... and
genereal motion is expected to continue for the next 24 hours.
Maximum sustained winds are near 105 mph...165 km/hr...with higher
gusts. A slow increase in strength is possible during the next
24 hours.
Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 45 miles... 75 km...
from the center...and tropical storm force winds extend outward up
to 140 miles...220 km.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 966 mb...28.53 inches.
Dangerous surf and rip currents...caused by large swells generated
by Hurricane Jeanne...are possible along the southeastern U.S.
Coast and the northwest and central Bahamas for the next few days.
Repeating the 11 am EDT position...25.6 N... 69.7 W. Movement
toward...west near 5 mph. Maximum sustained
winds...105 mph. Minimum central pressure... 966 mb.

Hurricane Jeanne Discussion Number 40
Statement as of 11:00 am EDT on September 23, 2004
satellite imagery earlier this morning indicated a well-defined
cloud-free eye with a ring of cold tops surrounding the eye. The
Dvorak intensity estimate was a consensus t5.5...or 102 kt...from
all three satellite agencies. However...during the past couple of
hours...cloud tops have significantly warmed and the eye has become
a little more ragged. As such...the intensity is only being
increased to 90 kt for this advisory.
The initial motion is a somewhat uncertain 270/4. Jeanne is
surrounded by high pressure everywhere but the south...so there has
been little in the way of definitive movement the past 6 hours.
However...all of the available NHC model guidance indicates the
pressures to the west of Jeanne should begin to decrease as Ivan
moves northwestward and that should allow for a slow westward
motion to begin shortly. In the longer term...the trough-ridge
pattern over the central and eastern U.S. And into the central
Atlantic is forecast to amplify by all of the global models. This
results in a ridge between Bermuda and the U.S. Mid-Atlantic coast
to remain nearly stationary the next 48-72 hours while building
slowly southward. A deep-layer easterly flow regime is expected to
move Jeanne westward for the next 48-60 hours...with a possible
turn to the northwest as the hurricane nears the Florida East Coast
in about 72 hours. The official track was nudged westward out of
respect for the NOGAPS and GFDN models...which were first two
models and the most consistent ones to indicate a westward motion
toward Florida.
The intensity forecast is still tricky. Ocean conditions near Jeanne
are currently not favorable for significant strengthening to occur.
However...by 24-48 hours...the outflow pattern is expected to
improve and Jeanne is forecast to move over warmer water near the
Bahamas. This should allow for some additional strengthening to
occur. By 72 hours...just prior to landfall...increasing south to
southwesterly upper-level shear may bring about some significant
weakening...but this is too close to call right now.
Given the forecast of the steering currents...Florida should pay
close attention to the evolution of Jeanne.
