New Caribbean disturbance 93L a major concern; flooding in Asia kills over 200

Posted by: Dr. Jeff Masters, 02:50 PM GMT del 21 Giugno 2010

A concentrated region of intense thunderstorms associated with a tropical wave has developed in the central Caribbean, a few hundred miles south of Puerto Rico. This disturbance was designated Invest 93L by NHC this morning, and has the best chance to become Tropical Storm Alex of any system we've seen so far this year. The disturbance is located near Buoy 42059, and this buoy has been reporting winds of 5 - 15 knots this morning. So far, pressures are not falling. Water vapor satellite loops show that 93L is embedded in a large region of moist air. Some dry continental air from North America is over the western Caribbean, but this dry air is too far away to interfere with development today and Tuesday. Wind shear is a low 5 - 10 knots. The high wind shear associated with the strong winds of the subtropical jet stream are over the northern Caribbean, too far north to interfere with development. Sea Surface Temperatures are plenty warm, a record 29 - 30°C. The Madden-Julian oscillation currently favors upward motion over the Caribbean, which will act to increase the chances of tropical storm formation this week. The Madden-Julian oscillation is a pattern of enhanced rainfall that travels along the Equator from west to east. The pattern has a wet phase with large-scale rising air and enhanced thunderstorm activity, followed by a dry phase with large-scale sinking air and suppressed thunderstorm activity. Each cycle lasts approximately 30 - 60 days. When the Madden-Julian oscillation is in its wet phase over a hurricane-prone region, the chances for tropical storm activity are greatly increased. The only negative for 93L would seem to be the lack of spin; the University of Wisconsin 850 mb relative vorticity analysis is showing only meager amounts of spin at 850 mb (roughly 5,000 feet in altitude.)

Figure 1. Morning visible satellite image of the central Caribbean disturbance 93L.

Forecast for 93L
NHC is giving 93L a 20% chance of developing into a tropical depression by Wednesday morning, which is a reasonable forecast. With wind shear expected to drop to low values less than 10 knots over the central and western Caribbean this week (Figure 2), I don't see any major impediments to the storm becoming a tropical depression by Friday. The ECMWF model is the most aggressive in developing this system, taking it into the Gulf of Mexico as a hurricane next week. The NOGAPS model keeps the storm weak and farther south, predicting that 93L will bring heavy rains to northern Honduras as a tropical disturbance or tropical depression on Friday and Saturday. The GFS model does not develop 93L. Expect 93L to bring flooding rains of 3 - 6 inches to Jamaica, eastern Cuba, and extreme southwestern Haiti on Wednesday. These rains will spread to the Cayman Islands and central Cuba by Thursday.

Figure 2. Predicted wind shear for Friday, June 25, as forecast by this morning's 2am EDT run of the GFS model. Shear is given in meters per second; multiply by about two to convert to knots. Low wind shear values less than 6 m/s (12 knots) are predicted for much of the Western Caribbean this week.

Elsewhere in the tropics
The tropical wave (92L) that brought heavy rains of 2 - 5 inches to Puerto Rico on Saturday has weakened and is no longer a threat to bring flooding rains to the Caribbean.

Floods in China and Burma kill over 200
The deadliest and most destructive weather-related disaster on the planet so far this year is occurring in southern China and northern Burma, where a week of heavy rains has caused flooding that has claimed over 200 lives. The death toll stands at 175 in China and 63 in Burma, with more than 100 people still missing in China. Damage so far in China has been estimated at $4.3 billion.

Montana tornado rips roof off entertainment complex
A EF-2 tornado with winds of at least 100 mph ripped the roof of an entertainment complex in Billings, Montana on Sunday, causing up to $15 million in damage. No injuries were reported. It was the strongest tornado to hit the Billings area since 1958.

Figure 4. Video of the Billings tornado shows an impressive debris cloud (and a few expletives not deleted!) The clear slot on the right of the tornado is likely associated with the parent thunderstorm's rear flank downdraft.

Wind and ocean current forecast for the BP oil disaster
Southeast to east winds less than 10 knots will blow in the northern Gulf of Mexico today through Friday, according to the latest marine forecast from NOAA. The resulting weak ocean currents should cause little motion of the oil slick, according to the latest trajectory forecasts from NOAA and the State of Louisiana. The long range outlook is uncertain, as the tropical wave over the central Caribbean could enter the Gulf of Mexico early next week and develop into a tropical storm.

Quoting Hurricanes101: It has a 0% chance of developing, it was deactivated and we have 93L; something that is a real threat to develop Talking about 92L; a deactivated invest just seems to be a bit of a waste of time IMO who cares if its an invest or not.. tropical cyclones are not machines that once are activated invest it automatically has to be tracked, and if its not , you can't track it.. They can spin up out of nothing.. I have been tracking for a while.. and I can tell you even the faintest spin in an area of low shear with high water and moisture content can turn into something.. I'm not saying 92L is going to turn into anything, Im just saying it's developing some convection. Member Since: Aprile 17, 2010 Posts: 0 Comments: 1752

Thanks for the update Dr. Masters... I think you are going to be awfully busy this season. Question for those who actually understand all this: so the reason 93L probably won't develop until later this week is because the wind shear is still high now, but forecasted to decrease?

59. scottsvb 03:07 PM GMT del 21 Giugno 2010
93L has a 30% chance... but TBH the models want to pick up on more moisture and a trough of low pressure moving NW from the ITZ by Weds morning in the SE Carribean then move to near Jamaica-Caymans by Friday morning. A breakdown in the ridge over the SE U.S. by this weekend could bring something NW or N...way to early to tell and wont give % out yet. 93L should move W to WNW into central america by Thursday or get intrained into the developing low behind it (if there is 1).

Quoting helove2trac: Why is it taking so long for it to get in the gulf if must be moving slow I think the models are picking up on an area of high vorticity moving into the caribbean, snatching up the moisture from 93l, then developing. That would explain the slow timing of it all. Member Since: Dicembre 1, 2006 Posts: 2 Comments: 3461

Quoting RecordSeason: 57: The number one thing hindering it right now is actually geographic location. It is in an area notorious as a dead zone for development, and it is close to land of SA. Well, I don't see any current reason why it won't develop. It's not close enough to SA for its future circulation to be affected. Member Since: Dicembre 1, 2006 Posts: 2 Comments: 3461

Thank You Dr.......It looks like a slow burner and NHC, which is of course the Official forecaster, is not going to jump the gun on this one, no matter how good it looks in the short term, because of the ramifications and so many uncertanties at the moment as to potential tracks.......We need an actual "storm" to track, and for the models to properly latch on to, before potential long-term impacts can be looked at. Translation? Take a deep breath and watch and wait for persistence over the next 24 hours into tommorow......... :) Member Since: Agosto 8, 2006 Posts: 0 Comments: 6695
