TROPICAL STORM RINA DISCUSSION NUMBER 10
NWS NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL AL182023
500 PM AST SAT SEP 30 2023
VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS THE EXPOSED CENTER OF RINA IS WELL
DISPLACED FROM DEEP CONVECTION, AS STRONG NORTHWESTERLY SHEAR
CONTINUES TO IMPACT THE STORM. THE INTENSITY IS HELD AT A POSSIBLY
GENEROUS 40 KT FOR THIS ADVISORY, WHICH IS A BLEND OF THE SUBJECTIVE
AND OBJECTIVE SATELLITE ESTIMATES.
THE INTENSITY FORECAST SHOWS GRADUAL WEAKENING THROUGH SUNDAY. GIVEN
RINA'S STRUCTURAL TRENDS TODAY, AND MODEL SIMULATED IR SATELLITE
DATA OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS, THE FORECAST SHOWS RINA
DEGENERATING INTO A REMNANT LOW SUNDAY EVENING. THE STRONG SHEAR AS
DIAGNOSED BY SHIPS IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE IMPACTING RINA AND ITS
REMNANTS UNTIL THE CYCLONE DISSIPATES EARLY NEXT WEEK. EVEN IF THE
SHEAR ISN'T ENOUGH TO PREVENT CONVECTIVE REFORMATION, RINA WILL
LIKELY STRUGGLE WITH DRY MID-LEVEL RELATIVE HUMIDITIES.
RINA IS NOW MOVING NORTHWESTWARD AT A SLIGHTLY FASTER 12 KT. THE
STORM OR ITS REMNANT LOW SHOULD CONTINUE TO TRACK NORTHWESTWARD AND
THEN NORTHWARD ALONG THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF PHILIPPE FOR THE NEXT
COUPLE OF DAYS. THE NEW TRACK FORECAST IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE
PREVIOUS FORECAST.
