TCIA3 HPCOR 061225 SEVERE TROPICAL STORM EHECATL (4603) INTERMEDIATE ADVISORY 3A LIVERPOOL ENGLAND MET SERVICE HURRICANE PREDICTION CENTRE OREAN, LIVERPOOL ENGLAND MSHPC HEADQUARTERS 12 PM HPT MAY 5 2146... 10 AM PAX TIME... 12:30 PM LOCAL TIME ...EHECATL STILL ON COURSE FOR LANDFALL NEAR/OVER BORLEAI DEFENCE POST... AT 12 PM HPT... THE TROPICAL STORM WATCH FOR NORTHWEST POPULARFREEDOM IS BEING DISCONTINUED. TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS ARE NO LONGER CONSIDERED LIKELY FOR THE AREA. A TROPICAL STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE COAST OF THE GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA FROM MOUNTAIN BAY EAST TO BORLEAI POINT EAST... THE EASTERN EDGE OF THE BORLEAI POST... AND A HURRICANE WATCH IS CONCURRENTLY IN EFFECT FROM DESINCO EAST TO BORLEAI POINT EAST. A TROPICAL STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE NORTHERN COAST OF THE GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA... FROM THE NORTHEAST REGION STATE LINE SOUTH TO BORLEAI POINT EAST. IN THIS CASE... A TROPICAL STORM WARNING MEANS THAT TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS MAY BE PRESENTLY OCCURRING WITHIN THE WARNING AREA... AND ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE WITHIN THE WARNING AREA IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS. A TROPICAL STORM WATCH MEANS THAT TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE WITHIN THE WATCH AREA IN 24 TO 36 HOURS. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION... INCLUDING POSSIBLE INLAND WATCHES AND WARNINGS... PLEASE REFER TO YOUR LOCAL SERVICE WEATHER OFFICE. IN THIS CASE... A HURRICANE WATCH MEANS THAT HURRICANE CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE IN THE WATCH AREA IN 12 TO 24 HOURS... OR HURRICANE-FORCE GUSTS ARE POSSIBLE AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS WITHIN 24 HOURS. AT 12 PM HPT THE CENTRE OF SEVERE TROPICAL STORM EHECATL WAS LOCATED NEAR LATITUDE 46.1 NORTH LONGITUDE 26.9 EAST... ABOUT 320 KM OR 200 MILES SOUTH- SOUTHWEST OF BORLEAI POINT WEST. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS REMAIN NEAR 95 KM/H... 60 MPH... WITH HIGHER GUSTS... POSSIBLY TO HURRICANE FORCE OVER HIGHER ELEVATIONS ACROSS THE GULP MOUNTAINS. EHECATL REMAINS ON A GENERALLY NORTHEAST-BY-NORTH TRACK NEAR 35 KM/H OR 22 MPH. ON THIS FORECAST TRACK... EHECATL WILL MAKE LANDFALL NEAR OR OVER THE BORLEAI DEFENCE POST WITHIN 12 HOURS. TROPICAL STORM-FORCE WINDS EXTEND OUTWARD UP TO 390 KM... 245 MILES... FROM THE CENTRE OF THE STORM... MOSTLY TO THE NORTHEAST OF CENTRE. IN EACH QUADRANT... WINDS AND SEAS VARY GREATLY. AN ANEMOMETER ALONG THE COAST AT BORLEAI POINT WEST RECENTLY RECORDED A ONE-MINUTE AVERAGE WIND SPEED OF 68 KM/H... 42 MPH... AND A GUST TO 105 KM/H... 65 MPH. AN AFLE/AIR FORCE AIRCRAFT IS CURRENTLY INVESTIGATING THE SYSTEM. MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE IS 990 HPA... 29.24 INCHES OF MERCURY... 74.26 CM HG. BETWEEN 150 AND 250 MM... 6 AND 10 INCHES... OF RAIN IS POSSIBLE OVER THE GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA. AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS... THIS MIGHT FALL IN THE FORM OF SNOW OR ICE. ISOLATED AMOUNTS OF UP TO 400 MM... 16 INCHES... IS POSSIBLE. BORLEAI DEFENCE POST RAINFALL REPORTS INDICATE THAT UP TO ONE INCH HAS ALREADY FALLEN IN THE LAST THREE HOURS... A 24-HOUR AVERAGE OF UP TO 8 INCHES. AT LOWER ELEVATIONS... THIS RAINFALL COULD CAUSE LIFE-THREATENING FLOODS AND MUDSLIDES... OR AVALANCHES AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS. REPEATING THE 12 PM POSITION... 46.1 NORTH 26.9 EAST. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS NEAR 95 KM/H. MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE 990 HPA... SYSTEM IS MOVING NORTHEAST- BY-NORTH AT 19 KT. THE NEXT FULL ADVISORY ON THIS SYSTEM WILL BE ISSUED BY 1545 HPT MAY 6. FORECASTER TIMMS/JARVIS
TCAD3 HPCOR 060940 CCA SEVERE TROPICAL STORM EHECATL (4603) ADVISORY 3 LIVERPOOL ENGLAND MET SERVICE HURRICANE PREDICTION CENTRE OREAN, LIVERPOOL ENGLAND MSHPC HEADQUARTERS 9 AM HPT MAY 5 2146... 7 AM PAX TIME... 9:30 AM LOCAL TIME ...EHECATL NOW A SEVERE TROPICAL STORM... HAS DEVIATED FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST TRACK... THE WEAKENING HIGH PRESSURE AREA NOW MOVING OUT INTO THE NOLAN SOUND HAS LEFT A WEAKNESS IN THE STEERING CURRENTS TO THE EAST OF EHECATL. WITH THE SUBTROPICAL HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDING IN OVER FROM THE MAINLAND... EHECATL SEEMS TO BE RESPONDING WITH A SHIFT EAST. THE OLD FORECAST TRACK IS NOW CONSIDERED OUTDATED AND UNLIKELY. RECONNAISSANCE AIRCRAFT IS CURRENTLY INVESTIGATING THE STORM. INITIAL INTENSITY OF 50 KNOTS IS BASED ON SATELLITE INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF T3.0 FROM AFLE AND HDCW AS WELL AS A DROPSONDE OBSERVATION FROM AROUND 0830 HPT WHICH SUGGESTED A 993 HPA PRESSURE WITH 47 KT WINDS. SINCE THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTS OF STRONGER FLIGHT-LEVEL WINDS SINCE THEN... ABOUT 58-62 KT... HAVE SET INITIAL INTENSITY A BIT HIGHER THAN SATELLITE ESTIMATES. INITIAL MOTION IS BEST ESTIMATED AT ABOUT 025/19. AT 9 AM HPT... THE TERRITORIAL GOVERNMENT OF GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA HAS DISCONTINUED THE TROPICAL STORM WARNING FROM THE MOUTH OF THE NORTHEAST RIVER EAST TO MOUNTAIN BAY. THE LOX LAND ISLAND WEATHER OBSERVATORY HAS ALSO INFORMED THE MSHPC THAT AT 9 AM HPT... ALL WARNINGS FOR LOX LAND ISLAND AND ITS WATERS HAVE BEEN DISCONTINUED. A TROPICAL STORM WARNING IS STILL IN EFFECT FOR THE COAST OF THE GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA FROM MOUNTAIN BAY EASTWARD TO THE EASTERN EDGE OF THE BORLEAI DEFENCE POST. A HURRICANE WATCH IS CONCURRENTLY IN EFFECT FROM DESINCO EAST TO THE EASTERN EDGE OF THE BORLEAI DEFENCE POST. AT 9 AM HPT... THE TERRITORIAL GOVERNMENT OF GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA HAS DECLARED A TROPICAL STORM WATCH FOR THE EASTERN COAST OF THE PENINSULA... NORTHWARD TO THE STATE BORDER WITH THE NORTHEAST REGION. A TROPICAL STORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR THE NORTHWESTERN COAST OF POPULARFREEDOM INCLUDING THE CITY OF PEARSON CLIFFS. THIS WILL LIKELY BE DISCONTINUED LATER TODAY ON THIS FORECAST TRACK. A TROPICAL STORM WATCH MEANS THAT TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE WITHIN THE WATCH AREA IN 24 TO 36 HOURS... WHILE A TROPICAL STORM WARNING MEANS THAT TROPICAL STORM CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED WITHIN THE WARNING AREA WITHIN 24 HOURS. REFER TO INFORMATION FROM YOUR LOCAL WEATHER OFFICES FOR POSSIBLE INLAND WATCHES AND WARNINGS. AT 9 AM HPT... THE CENTRE OF SEVERE TROPICAL STORM EHECATL WAS ESTIMATED TO BE LOCATED NEAR LATITUDE 45.8 NORTH LONGITUDE 26.7 EAST... ABOUT 385 KM OR 240 MILES SOUTHWEST OF THE BORLEAI DEFENCE POST. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS HAVE INCREASED TO NEAR 95 KM/H... 60 MPH... WITH HIGHER GUSTS. GUSTS TO HURRICANE FORCE ARE POSSIBLE OVER HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF THE GULP MOUNTAINS... POSSIBLY AS HIGH AS 185 KM/H... 115 MPH. EHECATL IS MOVING TO THE EAST-NORTHEAST AT ABOUT 35 KM/H... 22 MPH. ALONG THIS FORECAST TRACK... LANDFALL IS EXPECTED ON THE GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA WITHIN 12-24 HOURS. TROPICAL STORM-FORCE WINDS EXTEND OUTWARD UP TO 390 KM... 245 MILES... FROM THE CENTRE OF THE STORM... MOSTLY TO THE NORTHEAST OF CENTRE. IN EACH QUADRANT... WINDS AND SEAS VARY GREATLY. THE EXTRAPOLATED MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE OF THE STORM IS 990 HPA. BETWEEN 150 AND 250 MM... 6 AND 10 INCHES... OF RAIN IS POSSIBLE OVER THE GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA. AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS... THIS MIGHT FALL IN THE FORM OF SNOW OR ICE. ISOLATED AMOUNTS OF UP TO 400 MM... 16 INCHES... IS POSSIBLE. AT LOWER ELEVATIONS... THIS RAINFALL COULD CAUSE LIFE-THREATENING FLOODS AND MUDSLIDES... OR AVALANCHES AT HIGHER ELEVATIONS. ALL MODELS ARE DISREGARDED AS THEY STILL SHOW THE STORM MOVING WEST-NORTHWEST. FORECAST REASONING... EHECATL IS MOVING INTO THE GULP MOUNTAIN PENINSULA UNDER INFLUENCE OF THE NOW-DISSIPATING HIGH PRESSURE AREA MOVING OUT INTO THE NOLAN SOUND... AS WELL AS THE SUBTROPICAL HIGH. NO SIGNIFICANT FURTHER INTENSIFICATION IS EXPECTED... ALTHOUGH EHECATL'S WIND GUSTS COULD REACH WELL ABOVE HURRICANE STRENGTH. OFFICIAL FORECAST...
