For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Ernesto was located near latitude 33.9 North, longitude 63.3 West. Ernesto is moving toward the north-northeast near 8 mph (13 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue through tonight. An acceleration toward the north-northeast is forecast to begin on Sunday, with a turn toward the northeast and east-northeast occurring on Monday and Tuesday. On the forecast track, the center of Ernesto will move away from Bermuda tonight and pass near southeastern Newfoundland late Monday and Monday night. Maximum sustained winds have decreased to near 70 mph (110 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is expected tonight. Some intensification is possible Sunday and Sunday night, and Ernesto could regain hurricane status. The cyclone will likely become post-tropical near southeastern Newfoundland by Monday night or Tuesday morning. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 230 miles (370 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 978 mb (28.88 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Ernesto can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header WTNT45 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT5.shtml. WIND: Tropical storm conditions are likely to continue on Bermuda for the next few hours. STORM SURGE: Coastal flooding is still possible on Bermuda in areas of onshore winds. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves. RAINFALL: Ernesto is expected to produce an additional 1 to 2 inches or 25 to 50 mm of rainfall through Saturday night across Bermuda, with storm total amounts of 7 to 9 inches (175 to 225 mm). This rainfall will likely result in considerable life-threatening flash flooding to the island. SURF: Swells generated by Ernesto are affecting portions of the Bahamas, Bermuda, the east coast of the United States, and Atlantic Canada today. Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions are likely in these areas during the next couple of days. Please consult products from your local weather office, and stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next intermediate advisory at 200 AM AST.

Hurricane Ernesto Forecast Discussion
000 WTNT45 KNHC 172032 TCDAT5 Hurricane Ernesto Discussion Number 25 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL052024 500 PM AST Sat Aug 17 2024 Recent infrared and microwave imagery indicate show that Ernesto's convective activity is a little thin, with the deepest convection located in a small band just north of the center. Subjective and objective satellite intensity estimates have decreased through the day, and combined with the earlier data from the Hurricane Hunter aircraft--which only measured 700-mb wind of 74 kt--it is estimated that Ernesto's maximum sustained winds are near 65 kt. Ernesto has slowed down during the day while moving away from Bermuda, and the initial motion is north-northeastward (030 degrees) at 5 kt. This slow motion is likely to continue for the next 12 hours or so, before the flow increases ahead of an approaching trough and causes Ernesto to accelerate toward the north-northeast on Sunday. The cyclone is forecast to turn northeastward on Monday, and model guidance continues to show the center passing just to the southeast of Newfoundland late Monday or Monday night. After passing Newfoundland, Ernesto is expected to accelerate further toward the east-northeast over the north Atlantic. The track guidance is very tightly packed through 72 hours, and no significant changes were required from the previous NHC forecast. Despite Ernesto's recent weakening, the hurricane will move over warm waters of 28 degrees Celsius and within a light-shear environment for the next 24 hours or so. The storm's current broad structure may not allow for significant strengthening within this otherwise favorable environment, but many of the dynamical hurricane models, global models, and consensus aids suggest that Ernesto could re-intensity by 5-10 kt over the next day or so. This is reflected in the official intensity forecast. Weakening should begin by 48 hours due increasing shear and Ernesto moving over colder waters north of the Gulf Stream, and the cyclone is likely to become post-tropical by 60 hours while it is passing near southeastern Newfoundland. The GFS and ECMWF models indicate that dissipation should occur by day 4 when the circulation opens up into a trough over the north Atlantic. Key Messages: 1. Ernesto is moving slowly, and its impacts on Bermuda are not over. Strong winds, heavy rainfall, coastal flooding, and battering waves should continue through tonight. The heavy rains will likely result in considerable life-threatening flash flooding, especially in low-lying areas on the island. 2. Even though Ernesto is forecast to remain well offshore the U.S. East Coast, swells generated by the hurricane are expected to affect the area through early next week. Beach goers should be aware that there is a significant risk of life-threatening surf and rip currents, and should stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. Surf and rip currents are also possible on the Bahamas, Bermuda, and Atlantic Canada during the next few days. 3. Ernesto could bring wind, wave, and rain impacts to portions of southeastern Newfoundland late Monday and Monday night.

Interests in southeastern Newfoundland should monitor the progress of Ernesto. A watch may be required for a portion of this area Sunday morning. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 500 PM AST (2100 UTC), the center of Hurricane Ernesto was located near latitude 33.3 North, longitude 64.0 West. Ernesto is moving toward the north-northeast near 6 mph (9 km/h), and this slow motion is expected to continue through tonight. An acceleration toward the north-northeast is forecast to begin on Sunday, with a turn toward the northeast and east-northeast occurring on Monday and Tuesday. On the forecast track, the center of Ernesto will slowly move away from Bermuda through tonight and pass near southeastern Newfoundland late Monday and Monday night. Maximum sustained winds are near 75 mph (120 km/h) with higher gusts. No significant change in strength is forecast during the next 48 hours, and Ernesto should remain near or at hurricane strength through Monday. The cyclone will likely become post-tropical near southeastern Newfoundland by Monday night or Tuesday morning. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 60 miles (95 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 230 miles (370 km). The estimated minimum central pressure is 976 mb (28.82 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Ernesto can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header WTNT45 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT5.shtml. WIND: Tropical storm conditions are likely to continue on Bermuda through tonight, with hurricane-force gusts possible in rainbands. STORM SURGE: Coastal flooding is still possible on Bermuda in areas of onshore winds. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and destructive waves. RAINFALL: Ernesto is expected to produce an additional 1 to 2 inches (25 to 50 mm) of rainfall through tonight across Bermuda, with storm total amounts of 7 to 9 inches (175 to 225 mm). This rainfall will likely result in considerable life-threatening flash flooding to the island, especially in low-lying areas. SURF: Swells generated by Ernesto are affecting portions of the Bahamas, Bermuda, the east coast of the United States, and Atlantic Canada today. Life-threatening surf and rip current conditions are likely in these areas during the next couple of days. Please consult products from your local weather office, and stay out of the water if advised by lifeguards. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next intermediate advisory at 800 PM AST. Next complete advisory at 1100 PM AST. $$ Forecaster Berg

BREAKING: Elon Musk announces closure of X local operations in Brazil after leftist judge threatens arrest of legal rep
Elon Musk announced the closure of X operations in Brazil on Saturday, saying that Brazil’s Alexandre de Moraes was threatening the arrest of X’s legal representation and was requiring the social media company to break international law
Musk posted, “Due to demands by ‘Justice’ Alexandre in Brazil that would require us to break (in secret) Brazilian, Argentinian, American and international law, X has no choice but to close our local operations in Brazil. He is an utter disgrace to justice.”
The Global Government Affairs page of X stated that on Friday, “Alexandre de Moraes threatened our legal representative in Brazil with arrest if we do not comply with his censorship orders. He did so in a secret order, which we share here to expose his actions.”
“Despite our numerous appeals to the Supreme Court not being heard, the Brazilian public not being informed about these orders and our Brazilian staff having no responsibility or control over whether content is blocked on our platform, Moraes has chosen to threaten our staff in Brazil rather than respect the law or due process. As a result, to protect the safety of our staff, we have made the decision to close our operation in Brazil, effective immediately,” the statement added.

JOBOB: Obama’s alma mater Occidental College under fire for letting go of conservative economic professor
Occidental College in Los Angeles, the alma mater of former President Barack Obama, is under fire after deciding not to renew the contract of a conservative economics professor, Daron Djerdjian.
Djerdjian, who has been teaching at the college since 2010, is known for his free-market views, making him a rare voice of conservatism in the institution’s economics department. According to economist Mark Skousen, who serves as adjunct faculty at an institute founded by Djerdjian, the college’s decision not to renew his contract is part of a broader move away from intellectual diversity.
In an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal, Skousen referred to Djerdjian as the college’s “only free-market professor” and suggested that the decision to let him go reflects the college’s commitment to diversity and equity in a selective manner.
“For all its talk about diversity, equity and inclusion, Occidental College, the only small liberal-arts college in Los Angeles, doesn’t seem keen on putting those values into practice,” Djerdjian wrote in his op-ed. “Late last year the economics department opted not to renew the contract of an untenured professor whose libertarian and conservative views went against the grain. So much for its public commitment to diversity of political views.”
The news of Djerdjian’s departure has sparked significant opposition from the college community. A petition initiated by students and alumni, urging the college to retain Djerdjian received 400 signatures. The students behind the petition argued that Djerdjian’s conservative perspectives are essential to ensuring a broad range of viewpoints are represented in the curriculum.
“This will be a colossal loss to his past, present and prospective students, as well as to the marketplace of ideas at Occidental College and the world at large,” the petition said.
Skousen also criticized the economics department’s shift in recent years, claiming it has moved away from being a place of intellectual diversity.
“The economics department is now largely staffed by graduates of University of California schools who place more emphasis on fair trade than free trade and market failure than government failure, and are more likely to quote Keynesian Joseph Stiglitz than Milton Friedman,” Skousen claimed. “Sadly, political diversity is dying at Oxy and is being replaced by less tolerant wokeness.”
