HURRICANE SEYMOUR DISCUSSION NUMBER 8
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP202016
900 PM MDT MON OCT 24 2016
After rapidly intensifying during the past 30 hours, the rate of
strengthening has slowed for the time being. The eye of Seymour has
become cloud-filled on geostationary satellite images and microwave
data indicate that the northwestern portion of the eyewall has
eroded some. The observed arrested development this evening is
likely due to the entrainment of dry air. However, there are
already some signs that the hurricane is recovering from these
effects with central convection increasing and becoming more
circular during the past couple of hours. The initial intensity is
set at 90 kt, slightly above the Dvorak estimates at 0000 UTC due to
the improvement in organization of the system since that time.
Since Seymour is expected to remain in low wind shear conditions,
over warm water, and in an environment of good upper-level
divergence during the next 24 hours, significant strengthening is
anticipated. After that time, however, an increase in southwesterly
shear should end the strengthening process. Seymour is forecast to
rapidly weaken when it moves over cooler water and into hostile
atmospheric conditions beginning in about 2 days. The NHC intensity
forecast is a little higher than the multi-model consensus, and is
in best agreement with the SHIPS and LGEM models.
Seymour is moving westward, or 280 degrees, at 14 kt. The hurricane
is expected to remain on the southwestern side of a mid-level high
pressure system during the next 36 to 48 hours, which should allow
Seymour to maintain a westward to west-northwestward motion. After
that time, a large deep-layer low pressure system is expected to
move eastward toward California and erode the ridge. This pattern
change should cause Seymour to turn northwestward and then northward
in 3 to 4 days. The track models are in relatively good agreement,
and only small changes were made to the previous NHC forecast track.
A pair of ASCAT passes from several hours ago indicate that the wind
field of Seymour is very compact, with tropical-storm-force winds
extending no more than 60 n mi from the center.

Re: EPAC: SEYMOUR - Hurricane
Good call by the NHC. It's starting to look more symmetrical again. Should resume strengthening at a quick pace once it can keep out the dry air.

Agreed.
Structure looks great. Shear should remain low in the short term and dry air is not an issue.

HURRICANE SEYMOUR DISCUSSION NUMBER 9
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP202016
300 AM MDT TUE OCT 25 2016
The small eye of Seymour has reappeared in infrared satellite
imagery overnight, and has warmed and become more distinct within
the past hour or so. Subjective Dvorak intensity estimates are
T5.5 (102 kt) from TAFB and T5.0 (90 kt) from SAB. Objective Dvorak
intensity estimates from UW/CIMSS are somewhat lower, likely due to
the technique having difficulty in resolving the small eye. Based
on the very recent warming of the eye, the initial intensity is set
to 100 kt.
Seymour is expected to remain within an area of low wind shear and
over SSTs of around 28C during the next 24 hours. These conditions
favor additional intensification and the NHC wind speed forecast
calls for a peak intensity at category 4 strength later today.
After that time, increasing southwesterly shear and cooler waters
should begin the weakening process. Seymour is predicted to weaken
very rapidly between days 2 and 3 when it encounters very strong
southwesterly shear and moves over SSTs below 25C. The NHC
intensity forecast is near the upper-end of the guidance through
24 hours, but is close to the LGEM and NOAA corrected consensus
models after that time.
The hurricane is moving westward or 280/13 kt. A mid- to
upper-level ridge extending westward from Mexico is expected to
steer Seymour westward to west-northwestward for another 24 to 36
hours. After that time, a deep-layer trough is forecast to erode
the western portion of the ridge which should cause Seymour to turn
northwestward, then northward later in the period. The track
guidance remains in good agreement and the new NHC track forecast
is essentially an update of the previous advisory.
Recent ASCAT data shows that Seymour remains a small tropical
cyclone with tropical-storm-force winds extending only about
60 n mi from the center.

Of course I don't buy that, but Seymour certainly does have an impressive look on satellite. All it's really missing is a clear eye.

HURRICANE SEYMOUR DISCUSSION NUMBER 10
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL EP202016
800 AM PDT TUE OCT 25 2016
Microwave satellite imagery suggests that Seymour underwent an
eyewall replacement during the night, with an AMSR-2 overpass at
0917 UTC showing a larger eye than seen on a Windsat overpass at
0120 UTC. The hurricane is looking better organized than 6 hours
ago in infrared satellite imagery, with the eye gradually becoming
more apparent and greater symmetry in the cold cloud tops around the
eye. The latest satellite intensity estimates include 115 kt from
TAFB, 102, kt from SAB, and 108 kt from the CIMSS satellite
consensus. Based on these and current trends, the initial intensity
is increased to 110 kt.
Seymour is expected to remain within an area of low wind shear and
over SSTs of around 28C during the next 24 hours. These conditions
favor additional intensification and the NHC wind speed forecast
calls for a peak intensity at category 4 strength later today or
early tonight. After that time, increasing southwesterly shear and
cooler waters should cause steady to rapid weakening. The majority
of the guidance shows Seymour weakening below hurricane strength in
less than 72 hours, degenerating to a remnant low by 96 hours, and
dissipating completely by 120 hours. The new intensity forecast is
an update of the previous forecast and continues to lie near the
upper end of the intensity guidance.
The initial motion is 275/12. A mid- to upper-level ridge extending
westward from Mexico is expected to steer Seymour westward to
west-northwestward for another 24 hours or so. Subsequently, a
deep-layer trough over the northeastern Pacific is expected to cause
a break in the ridge, with Seymour turning northwestward and
northward into the break. Most of the track guidance suggests the
forward motion should slow between 72-96 hours as Seymour shears
apart, and this is reflected in the track forecast. The new
forecast track is a little to the south of the previous track during
the first 24 hours, and then is similar to the previous track.
