possible within the watch area, generally within 48 hours.

Interests elsewhere in the Mexican states of Baja California Sur,
Sinaloa, and Sonora should closely monitor the progress of Tropical
Storm Ileana.

For storm information specific to your area, please monitor
products issued by your national meteorological service.


DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 PM MST (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Ileana was
located near latitude 21.0 North, longitude 108.5 West. Ileana is
moving toward the north-northwest near 12 mph (19 km/h).  A slower 
north-northwestward to northward motion is expected during the next 
few days.  On the forecast track, Ileana is expected to move across 
the southern portion of the Baja California peninsula on Friday and 
over the Gulf of California this weekend.

Maximum sustained winds have increased to near 45 mph (75 km/h) 
with higher gusts.  Some additional strengthening is possible 
before Ileana reaches the Baja California peninsula.  However, 
weakening is expected to begin by late Friday.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles (150 km)
from the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 999 mb (29.50 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for Ileana can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP4 and WMO header WTPZ44 KNHC.

RAINFALL: Tropical Storm Ileana is expected to produce 4-6 inches
with localized higher amounts up to 8 inches across the coastal
areas of Michoacan, Colima, and Jalisco through early Friday. From
Friday through Sunday, Tropical Storm Ileana may result in 4-6
inches, with localized higher amounts up to 8 inches, across
southern Baja California. For northwest coastal Sinaloa, Tropical
Storm Ileana may produce between 6-8 inches with localized higher
amounts up to 12 inches. This heavy rainfall will bring a risk of
flash flooding and mudslides to portions of the area.

WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected to first reach
the coast of the southern Baja California Peninsula within the
warning area Friday morning, making outside preparations difficult
or dangerous. Tropical storm conditions are possible within the
watch area by early Saturday.

SURF: Swells generated by Tropical Storm Ileana will affect portions
of the coast of west-central Mexico and the coast of the southern
Baja California Peninsula during the next couple of days. These
swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current
conditions.  Please consult products from your local weather office.

Coastal Watches/Warnings and Forecast Cone for Storm Center


* If the storm is forecast to dissipate within 3 days, the “Full Forecast” and “3 day” graphic will be identical

Click Here for a 5-day Cone Printer Friendly Graphic

How to use the cone graphic (video):

Link to video describing cone graphic

About this product:

This graphic shows an approximate representation of coastal areas under a hurricane warning (red), hurricane watch (pink),
tropical storm warning (blue) and tropical storm watch (yellow). The orange circle indicates the current position of the
center of the tropical cyclone. The black line, when selected, and dots show the National Hurricane Center (NHC) forecast track of the center
at the times indicated. The dot indicating the forecast center location will be black if the cyclone is forecast to be
tropical and will be white with a black outline if the cyclone is forecast to be extratropical. If only an L is displayed,
then the system is forecast to be a remnant low. The letter inside the dot indicates the NHC’s forecast intensity for that time:

D: Tropical Depression – wind speed less than 39 MPH
S: Tropical Storm – wind speed between 39 MPH and 73 MPH
H: Hurricane – wind speed between 74 MPH and 110 MPH
M: Major Hurricane – wind speed greater than 110 MPH

NHC tropical cyclone forecast tracks can be in error. This forecast
uncertainty is conveyed by the track forecast “cone”, the solid white
and stippled white areas in the graphic. The solid white area depicts
the track forecast uncertainty for days 1-3 of the forecast, while the
stippled area depicts the uncertainty on days 4-5. Historical data
indicate that the entire 5-day path of the center of the tropical
cyclone will remain within the cone about 60-70% of the time. To
form the cone, a set of imaginary circles are placed along the
forecast track at the 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, and 120 h positions,
where the size of each circle is set so that it encloses 67% of the
previous five years official forecast errors. The cone is then formed
by smoothly connecting the area swept out by the set of circles.

It is also important to realize that a tropical cyclone is not a point. Their
effects can span many hundreds of miles from the center. The area
experiencing hurricane force (one-minute average wind speeds of at least
74 mph) and tropical storm force (one-minute average wind speeds of
39-73 mph) winds can extend well beyond the white areas shown enclosing
the most likely track area of the center. The distribution of hurricane
and tropical storm force winds in this tropical cyclone can be seen in
the Wind History graphic linked above.

Considering the combined forecast uncertainties in track, intensity, and size, the
chances that any particular location will experience winds of 34 kt (tropical storm force),
50 kt, or 64 kt (hurricane force) from this tropical cyclone are presented in

tabular form for selected locations and forecast positions
. This information is also presented in
graphical form for the 34 kt, 50 kt,
and 64 kt thresholds.

Note:  A detailed definition of the NHC track forecast cone is also available.

Sinaloa, and Sonora should closely monitor the progress of Tropical
Storm Ileana.

For storm information specific to your area, please monitor
products issued by your national meteorological service.


DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 200 PM MST (2100 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Ileana was
located near latitude 19.9 North, longitude 108.0 West. Ileana is
moving toward the north-northwest near 9 mph (15 km/h) and this
motion is expected to continue through Friday. A turn to the north 
at a slightly slower forward speed is expected Friday night. On the 
forecast track, the center of Ileana should pass near or over the 
southern portion of Baja California Sur Friday and Friday night 
before emerging over the southern Gulf of California late Friday 
night or early Saturday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 40 mph (65 km/h) with higher gusts.
Some strengthening is expected during the next 24 hours until 
Ileana reaches Baja California Sur. After that, some weakening is 
possible while the cyclone is near or over land.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles (150 km)
from the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 1001 mb (29.56 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for Ileana can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDEP4 and WMO header WTPZ44 KNHC.

RAINFALL: Tropical Storm Ileana is expected to produce 4-6 inches 
with localized higher amounts up to 8 inches across the coastal 
areas of Michoacan, Colima, and Jalisco through early Friday. From 
Friday through Sunday, Tropical Storm Ileana may result in 4-6 
inches, with localized higher amounts up to 8 inches, across 
southern Baja California. For northwest coastal Sinaloa, Tropical 
Storm Ileana may produce between 6-8 inches with localized higher 
amounts up to 12 inches. This heavy rainfall will bring a risk of 
flash flooding and mudslides to portions of the area.

WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected to first reach
the coast of the southern Baja California Peninsula within the
warning area Friday morning, making outside preparations difficult
or dangerous. Tropical storm conditions are possible within the
watch area by early Saturday.

SURF: Swells generated by Tropical Storm Ileana will affect
portions of the coast of west-central Mexico during the next day or
so, and will spread northward along the coasts of the southern Baja
California Peninsula and mainland Mexico beginning tonight. These
swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current
conditions.  Please consult products from your local weather office.

Tropical Storm Ileana Forecast Discussion

WTPZ44 KNHC 122038
TCDEP4

Tropical Storm Ileana Discussion Number   2
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       EP092024
200 PM MST Thu Sep 12 2024

The overall cloud pattern as seen in GOES-18 visible and infrared 
imagery does not appear to have changed very much from earlier 
today.  While the RMW still seems to be a bit large, the cyclone 
displays a large area of cold cloud tops with some evidence of 
curved banding.  The latest subjective Dvorak intensity estimates 
are a consensus T-2.5/35 kt from both TAFB and SAB, while recent 
objective intensity estimates from UW-CIMSS range from 33 to 42 kt. 
Based on the subjective and objective intensity estimates, the 
depression is being upgraded to Tropical Storm Ileana with an 
initial intensity estimate of 35 kt. 

The initial motion estimate is north-northwest, or 340/8 kt, which 
is a bit faster than before.  The overall synoptic steering pattern 
is unchanged in the models from earlier.  A deep-layer trough 
located over the western United States will continue to steer the 
cyclone toward the north-northwest through Friday, bringing the 
system near the southern portion of Baja California Sur.  After that 
time, this trough is forecast to weaken, which should cause steering 
currents to weaken.  This evolution should induce a slower motion 
toward the north, likely over the waters of the southern Gulf of 
California.  There were no major changes to the guidance for the 
first 36 to 48 h of the forecast, and very little change was made to 
the previous official forecast.  Thereafter, the guidance is a bit 
farther west, with some of the models keeping the cyclone moving 
north-northwestward over the Gulf of California rather than moving 
inland over mainland Mexico.  The NHC forecast was only nudged 
slightly west of the previous forecast, not as far west as the 
consensus aids during the 48 to 96 h time period.

Ileana is currently located within an environment of warm ocean 
waters, moderate vertical wind shear, and within a fairly moist low- 
to mid-level troposphere.  However, very dry air is evident on water 
vapor imagery to the northwest of the cyclone.  These conditions are 
unlikely to change before the cyclone reaches Baja California Sur on 
Friday, and the NHC forecast shows some strengthening before then.  
Land interaction with the peninsula should cause some weakening.  
When the center reaches the Gulf of California, the sea surface 
temperatures are quite warm.  While some restrengthening is possible 
after the cyclone emerges back over water, Ileana will encounter 
increasing westerly wind shear and drier air by hour 48, so it won't 
have much time to restrengthen.  After that time, weakening is 
expected as Ileana's convection is sheared off, and the cyclone is 
forecast to become a remnant low in about 72 h.  It should be noted 
that the GFS and ECMWF simulated satellite imagery show the cyclone 
becoming a remnant low a bit earlier around hour 60.  Although the 
cyclone will likely dissipate prior to 96 h, a 96 h point is carried 
as a remnant low for continuity.

Key Messages:
1. Tropical Storm Ileana will bring heavy rainfall to portions
of western Mexico and southern Baja California through this weekend.
This heavy rainfall will bring a risk of flash flooding and
mudslides to portions of the area.

2. Tropical storm conditions are expected to begin in portions of
the Baja California Sur on Friday, where Tropical Storm Warnings
are in effect.

Tropical Depression Seven Forecast Discussion


000
WTNT42 KNHC 122022
TCDAT2

Tropical Depression Seven Discussion Number   6
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL072024
Issued by the NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
500 PM AST Thu Sep 12 2024

Tropical Depression Seven appears somewhat more organized on 
satellite imagery this afternoon, with a compact circulation 
and a couple bursts of deeper convection near the center, though it 
has been exposed for portions of the day.  Subjective and objective 
Dvorak numbers indicate the system is close to becoming a tropical 
storm. However, the initial intensity will stay 30 kt, at the lower 
end of the estimates, until we get a little more definitive 
evidence of a tropical storm.

The cyclone continues on a west-northwestward heading, and the 
general motion is expected to continue over the next 2-3 days. The 
forward speed should gradually slow as the subtropical ridge to the 
north of the system weakens. Track guidance diverges considerably 
early next week, related to uncertainties with an amplifying trough 
over the north-central Atlantic Ocean and another ridge centered 
northeast of the Leeward Islands.  The GFS-based guidance has 
trended much farther west and faster, showing a weakening system at 
long range.  However, the ECMWF and its ensemble members still show 
a risk of a stronger system, so the forecast will stay on the 
northeastern side of the track guidance.  The new NHC forecast is 
faster and left of the previous one owing to the bulk of the 
guidance shifts during this cycle.

While environmental conditions are somewhat favorable for gradual 
strengthening, with low-moderate vertical wind shear and 
marginally warm SSTs, intensity guidance is even lower than the 
last cycle.  Slight strengthening seems most probable within the 
marginal environment, and the forecast continues to show a 45-kt 
peak in 5 days.  There is also the potential for greater 
strengthening beyond what is shown early next week as the cyclone 
will be in an environment characterized by lower shear, warmer SSTs 
around 28C, slightly more instability, but plentiful dry air aloft. 
The latest intensity forecast is very similar to the previous 
one, on the high side of the guidance envelope.
