NOAA’s Central Pacific Hurricane Center or CPHC said a westward motion with a decrease in forward speed is expected to continue through tonight, followed by a turn to the west-northwest on Wednesday, Sept. 5 and to the northwest on Wednesday night. On the forecast track, the center of Lane will pass south of Kauai and Niihau later today. Lane is then expected to accelerate toward the northwest on Tuesday, Aug. 28 and Wednesday, Aug. 29. Author Lynn Jenner Posted on August 30, 2019 September 3, 2019 Categories Earth, Earth Hazards, Hurricanes Tags Dorian 2019 Dorian (Atlantic Ocean) Aug 30, 2019 – Update #1 – NOAA’s GOES-East and GOES-15 Capture Dorian’s Movement in the Atlantic Jebi’s center crossed near Kyoto before it emerged into the Sea of Japan where it is getting caught up in the mid-latitude westerly jet stream. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 130 miles (215 km) from the center. This general motion is expected to continue today, with a gradual turn toward the north-northwest. Jebi is expected to strengthen and maintain that strength for one and one half days, before finally starting a weakening trend on Sept. 1. NASA’s Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) captured images of Lane on just before noon local time on Aug. 24. AIRS saw coldest cloud top temperatures being pushed away from the center by strong vertical wind shear. The slow movement of Lane also greatly increases the threat for prolonged heavy rainfall and extreme rainfall totals. Storms with cloud top temperatures that cold have the capability to produce heavy rainfall. The higher the cloud tops, the colder and the stronger they are. The orange and red areas, away from the storm, have almost no clouds, and the ocean shines through. The List of Florida hurricanes encompasses approximately 500 tropical or subtropical cyclones that affected the state of Florida.More storms hit Florida than any other U.S. state, and since 1851 only eighteen hurricane seasons passed without a known storm impacting the state. By Rob Gutro month begins. Lane is moving toward the west near 8 mph (13 km/h), and this motion is expected to continue today. Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. At 5 a.m. EDT (2 a.m. PDT/0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Miriam was located near latitude 14.0 degrees north and longitude 133.5 degrees west. Some additional strengthening is forecast during the next 12 to 24 hours. Lingering moisture associated with Lane will produce heavy rainfall over portions of the main Hawaiian Islands today, Aug. 26, which could lead to additional flash flooding and landslides. Accumulated IMERG rainfall estimates over Japan and the surrounding region for the 1-week period from August 29 to Sept. 5, 2018 show rainfall amounts on the order of 100 mm (~4 inches, shown in red) or more covering much of the main island of Honshu and Shikoku in the south. On Sept 4, the MODIS instrument aboard NASA’s Aqua satellite showed a band of strong storms that circled the center was much thinner. On Sept. 6, Major Hurricane Norman was east of the Hawaiian Islands and tracking toward the west-northwest. When NASA’s Aqua satellite passed over tropical cyclone Lane on Aug. 27 it had just regained tropical storm status and showed powerful thunderstorms around east of its center of circulation. On Monday, August 27, 2018 there were no coastal watches or warnings in effect. NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center. The National Hurricane Center (NHC) noted today, Aug. 29 that Norman is forecast to rapidly intensify and become a hurricane later today. Just so you know, hurricanes hit Orlando in 2017, 2004, and 1960. The state has been dealing with moderate drought for several months and the winds caused a wildfire to burn out of control on Maui destroying 20 homes.

That’s 290 miles (470 km) northeast of Hilo, Hawaii. Additional weakening is forecast through Sunday night. Slight weakening is forecast during the next 48 hours. The image provided a full picture of the depression and showed light rain was falling over the Hawaiian Islands on Aug. 26 at 1516 UTC (11: 16 a.m. EDT). On the forecast track, the center of Lane will move very close to or over the main Hawaiian Islands later today through Friday (Aug. 24).”. The depression is moving toward the west near 7 mph (11 kph). Those cloud top temperatures were as cold as minus 63 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 53 degrees Celsius). On Aug. 24 at 12:40 a.m. EDT (0430 UTC), NASA’s Aqua satellite provided a visible image of Tropical Storm Soulik after it moved off the Korean Peninsula and into the Sea of Japan. This will likely be followed by a turn toward the west with an increase in forward speed starting later today or tonight. NASA’s IMERG surface rainfall accumulations were calculated for the period 22 to 27 August 2020 for both Hurricanes Marco and Laura. Maximum sustained winds are near 85 mph (140 kph) with higher gusts. MISR, flying onboard NASA’s Terra satellite, carries nine cameras that observe Earth at different angles. Anonymous 2.0 (talk) 16:52, July 31, 2018 (UTC) And Tropical Tidbits spots another invest, also in the open Pacific. Lane is forecast to move to the north-northwest. Sep. 01, 2020 – NASA’s IMERG Analyzed Heavy Rains from Hurricanes Laura and Marco The northern Gulf Coast, specifically Louisiana, saw two tropical cyclones make landfall in the same week just days apart. Jebi was moving to the west-northwest at 14 mph (12 knots/22 kph). NWS said “Residents of the Northern Marianas Islands…including Agrihan, Pagan and Alamagan should carefully monitor the progress of Tropical Depression 25W.”. However, NOAA’s Central Pacific Hurricane Center or CPHC said that interests in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands should continue to monitor the progress of Lane. Tropical Depression Fifteen-E (TD15E) formed in the eastern Pacific Ocean about 1,000 nautical miles (1852 km) southwest of the Baja California peninsula early on Sunday Aug. 26, 2018. August 2018 Individual Tropical Cyclones; Name Dates of winds >39 mph Maximum Sustained Winds Minimum Central Pressure Landfall; Hurricane Hector (Cat. CPHC said “Rain bands will continue to overspread the Hawaiian Islands well ahead of Lane. Some additional intensification is expected today, followed by fairly rapid weakening Friday through Saturday night, Sept. 1. NASA’s Aqua satellite provided an infrared look at Norman as it continued weakening and moving northwest of the Hawaiian Islands. On Aug. 29 at 4:45 a.m. EDT (0845 UTC) the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer or MODIS instrument aboard NASA’s Aqua satellite found the coldest temperatures of the strongest thunderstorms in Tropical Storm Norman were north and south of the center and were as cold as or colder than minus 80 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 62.2 Celsius). Maximum sustained winds were near 35 mph (55 kph) with higher gusts. NOAA’s CPHC said, “Lane is moving toward the northwest near 7 mph (11 kph). Miriam is expected to become a hurricane tomorrow. This is expected to lead to major, life-threatening flash flooding and landslides over all Hawaiian Islands. CPHC said, “Some weakening is forecast during the next day or so, with more significant weakening thereafter. Some strengthening is forecast during the next 48 hours, and Miriam is expected to become a hurricane later today or tonight. Yeah, we may have had two hurricanes in July in the Atlantic but the basin hasn't had much since and isn't expected to anytime soon; the AOI near the Azores right now isn't expected to develop, let alone affect land. A Hurricane Watch is in effect for Kauai County, including the islands of Kauai and Niiha. Just so you know, hurricanes hit Orlando in 2017, 2004, and 1960. The image showed the bulk of clouds were being pushed north of the low level center, as the southern quadrant was almost devoid of clouds, except for a small ring around the center. NASA-NOAA’s Suomi NPP satellite flew over Post-Tropical Cyclone Lane on Aug. 28 at 7:54 p.m. EDT (2354 UTC).The  Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument aboard NASA-NOAA’s Suomi NPP satellite provided a visible image that showed wind shear has taken its toll on the storm and pushed all of the clouds northeast of the cloud-less center of circulation. When NASA’s Aqua satellite passed over Tropical Storm Jebi on Sept. 4 at 12:17 a.m. EDT (417 UTC) it had made landfall in southeastern Japan. Temperature is important when trying to understand how strong storms can be. Maximum sustained winds are near 90 mph (150 kph) with higher gusts. NASA’s Aqua satellite obtained a visible image of Hurricane Norman northeast of the Hawaiian Islands and found the storm weakening and battling wind shear. There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect as Norman is far from land. A turn toward the northwest and north-northwest is expected Thursday, Aug. 30 and Friday, Aug. 31. MODIS found cloud top temperatures of the strongest thunderstorms northeast and southwest of the eye were as cold as or colder than minus 80 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 62.2 Celsius). This is above the 1981-2010 average of 12.1 named storms, 6.4 hurricanes, and 2.7 major hurricanes. For updated forecasts, visit: http://www.prh.noaa.gov/cphc. NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center.
