Amped Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Yes, and it's a very small system in terms of hurricane winds radius...Still, Puerto Vallarta could see a very rough day if it goes directly over them. Can't resist posting the 22:15Z image...if that it's not a Cat 5, I don't know what is avn0.gif GOES22302015295tXc9LN.jpg Raw T is 7.8!! That stupid 1.3T/6hr limit flag is knocking the adjT down to a 6.1. Too bad there is no recon, the 6hr pressure drop maybe coming close to Wilma.

Preparations to protect life and property should be rushed tocompletion.A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions areexpected somewhere within the warning area.A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possiblewithin the watch area.For storm information specific to your area, please monitorproducts issued by your national meteorological service.DISCUSSION AND 48-HOUR OUTLOOK------------------------------At 700 PM CDT (0000 UTC), the eye of Hurricane Patricia was locatednear latitude 15.8 North, longitude 104.8 West. Patricia is movingtoward the northwest near 13 mph (20 km/h). A turn toward thenorth is expected by early Friday, followed by a turn toward thenorth-northeast Friday night. On the forecast track, the core ofPatricia will make landfall in the hurricane warning area Fridayafternoon or evening.Satellite images indicate that Patricia has continued to intensifyand maximum sustained winds have reached near 150 mph (240 km/h)with higher gusts. Patricia is a category 4 hurricane on theSaffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. Patricia could become acategory 5 hurricane overnight, and is expected to remain anextremely dangerous hurricane through landfall.Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 30 miles (45 km) from thecenter and tropical storm force winds extend outward up to 175 miles(280 km).The estimated minimum central pressure is 934 mb (27.58 inches).HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND----------------------WIND: Hurricane conditions are expected to first reach thehurricane warning area Friday afternoon or evening. Tropical stormconditions are expected to first reach the warning areas by latetonight or early Friday, making outside preparations difficult ordangerous. Preparations to protect life and property should berushed to completion today. Hurricane conditions are possible in thehurricane watch area late Friday.RAINFALL: Patricia is expected to produce total rainfallaccumulations of 6 to 12 inches, with isolated maximum amounts of 20inches, over the Mexican states of Jalisco, Colima, Michoacan andGuerrero later today into Saturday. These rains could producelife-threatening flash floods and mud slides.STORM SURGE: A dangerous storm surge is expected to producesignificant coastal flooding near and to the right of where thecenter makes landfall. Near the coast, the surge will be accompaniedby large and destructive waves.SURF: Swells generated by Patricia are already affecting portionsof the southern coast of Mexico, and will spread northwestwardduring the next day or so. These swells are likely to causelife-threatening surf and rip current conditions.

1900hurricane Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 I think ADT version 8.2.1 is a little out to lunch at the moment. SSD is currently running version 8.1.4 (same version that was run for Haiyan, by the way), and it's a little more conservative with a raw 7.4, which I'm fine with. The eye is still a little cool, but definitely warming up. It's not quite there yet, but this is going up to the top level of what we've seen in the eastern Pacific. The first storm that comes to mind when I see Patricia currently is Super Typhoon Nuri from last year, and Patricia will probably get about as intense.

wxmx Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Thanks. Not close to that, but the rate has still been impressive nonetheless. Wind speed went from 60kts to 150kts in 24 hours, a 24-hour increase of 90 kts. If the 10 PM advisory goes for a 140kts Patricia, that would be an 85 kts increase, very much in Wilma's ballpark.

If the 10 PM advisory goes for a 140kts Patricia, that would be an 85 kts increase, very much in Wilma's ballpark. I meant more pressure-wise; we've dropped around 60 mb in the past 24 hours, versus Wilma's nearly 100 mb. Wind-wise, however, it is potentially very close.

ncforecaster89 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Wind speed went from 60kts to 150kts in 24 hours, a 24-hour increase of 90 kts. If the 10 PM advisory goes for a 140kts Patricia, that would be an 85 kts increase, very much in Wilma's ballpark. I believe a better comparitive storm would be hurricane Linda of the EPAC from 1997. It had an 81 mb 24 hour decrease in the central pressure and a 90 kt. increase in the MSW. Additionally, the 12 hour data was 54 mb and 55 knots, respectively. For Wilma, the 24 hour stats are 97 mb and 90 knots. 12 hour data was an astonishing 83 mb and 75 knots. In only a 6 hour period, hurricane Wilma's central pressure dropped a remarkable 54 mb!!

ncforecaster89 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 It doesn't get much more textbook than this: bd0-lalo.gif Agreed! Not surprising with the El Nino induced anamously warm water combined with a very favorable upper-level environment. It will be interesting to see if it will officially match or exceed hurricane Linda's super El Nino enhanced 1997 record intensity! It has a shot.

Edit: The 12 hour window, suggested by the models for continued intensification, corresponds well with the current wind shear analysis whereby Patricia will be moving into a less favorable upper-level environment beyond that time frame.

wxtrackercody Posted October 23, 2015 Author Share Posted October 23, 2015 ...POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC HURRICANE PATRICIA TURNING TOWARD SOUTHWESTERN MEXICO... 10:00 PM CDT Thu Oct 22Location: 16.2°N 105.1°WMoving: NNW at 10 mphMin pressure: 924 mbMax sustained: 160 mph HURRICANE PATRICIA DISCUSSION NUMBER 12NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP2020151000 PM CDT THU OCT 22 2015 Patricia continues to explosively intensify, with the eye becomingwarmer and better defined, along with a solid ring of very cold -90Ccloud tops in the eyewall. Subjective and objective Dvorakestimates support an initial wind speed of 140 kt, and an An AirForce Reserve reconnaissance unit aircraft is en route to check theintensity of the hurricane. Patricia is estimated to haveintensified 85 kt in the past 24 hours, from a tropical storm to acategory 5 hurricane during that time. This is a remarkable feat,with only Linda of 1997 intensifying at this rate in the satelliteera. The hurricane could strengthen a little more before increasingsouthwesterly shear causes Patricia to weaken some by Fridayafternoon, although it should remain an extremely dangeroushurricane through landfall. The latest forecast is close to theprevious NHC prediction, updated for the higher initial wind speed.After landfall, the hurricane should rapidly weaken over the highterrain and dissipate by 48 hours over the Sierra Madre mountains. The hurricane continues to turn more poleward and slow down, with aninitial motion estimate of 330/9. The track forecast reasoningremains unchanged with Patricia expected to turn northward duringthe next 12 hours as it moves around the periphery of a mid-levelhigh centered over the Gulf of Mexico. The hurricane is thenforecast to accelerate north-northeastward between the high and anamplifying trough over northwestern Mexico. The latest NHCforecast is close to the previous one, nudged a bit to the east tobetter reflect the latest consensus guidance. Model guidance continues to suggest that the mid-level remnants andmoisture from Patricia will be absorbed by a non-tropical area oflow pressure that forms over south Texas or the northwestern Gulf ofMexico this weekend. This moisture could contribute to a majorrainfall event already ongoing across portions of Texas. For moreinformation, please refer to products from your local NationalWeather Service office and the NOAA Weather Prediction Center. KEY MESSAGES: 1. Confidence is high that Patricia will make landfall in thehurricane warning area along the coast of Mexico as an extremelydangerous major hurricane Friday afternoon or evening. Preparationsto protect life and property in the hurricane warning area should becompleted as tropical storm conditions will begin to affectthe warning area overnight or early Friday. 2. In addition to the coastal impacts, very heavy rainfall islikely to cause life-threatening flash floods and mud slides in theMexican states of Jalisco, Colima, Michoacan and Guerrero beginninglate tonight and continuing into Saturday.
