Tropical Storm Elsa Discussion Number  23
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL052021
1100 PM EDT Mon Jul 05 2021

Radar data from Cuba and Key West, Florida, along with surface
observations, indicate that the center of Elsa is back over water,
having emerged off the northern coast of of Cuba around 0200 UTC.
Doppler velocity data from the NOAA WSR-88D at Key West indicate
values of around 55 t at 10,000 ft, which supports equivalent
surface winds of 49 kt. An Air Force reconnaissance aircraft flying
just offshore the north coast of Cuba over deep water measured
reliable SFMR surface winds of at least 50 kt. Based on these data,
the intensity has been increased to 50 kt.

The initial motion estimate is 330/10 kt. Just like over the past
three days, no significant changes have been made to the previous
track forecast or synoptic reasoning. Elsa is now moving
north-northwestward around the southwestern periphery of a
deep-layer ridge whose axis extends westward across the Atlantic to
central Florida. The cyclone should gradually move around the ridge
over the next 36 hours, turning northward on Tuesday and then
north-northeastward Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. By late
Wednesday, Elsa should accelerate northeastward ahead of a
mid-latitude trough and frontal system, moving across the eastern
United States to near Atlantic Canada. The new NHC track forecast is
very similar to the previous advisory track, but was nudged slightly
eastward due to the more eastward initial position, and lies a tad
east of of the various tightly clustered track consensus models.

Some additional strengthening is expected over the next 36 hours,
with some of the SHIPS and global models showing Elsa possibly
reaching 60 kt just before landfall along the northwestern Florida
peninsula. This would typically require a Hurricane Watch for a
small portion of northwest Florida. However, given that Elsa has
been hugging a very tight mid-level moisture gradient -- a
condition that is expected to continue until landfall occurs in
about 36 hours -- the new official intensity forecast remains
similar to the previous advisory and holds the peak intensity at 55
kt due to expected intermittent dry-air intrusions. Subsequent NHC
forecasts can assess the new reconnaissance and model data that will
be coming in later tonight, and determine if an increase in the
intensity forecast and the issuance of a hurricane watch or warning
is required. By 96 hours, the global models suggest that the
cyclone will merge with a frontal zone, so the new intensity
forecast continues to shows extratropical transition at that time.


Key Messages:

1. Heavy rain will impact the Cayman Islands and Cuba tonight
resulting in significant flooding and mudslides over Cuba. As Elsa
approaches the Florida Keys, Florida Peninsula, and southeast
Georgia through Wednesday, heavy rainfall may result in isolated
flash, urban, and minor river flooding, with considerable flooding
possible in southwest and western portions of Florida.  Mid to late
week, heavy rains across coastal South Carolina, North Carolina, and
southeastern Virginia may result in isolated flash and urban
flooding.

2. There is a danger of life-threatening storm surge along
portions of the west coast of Florida Tuesday night and Wednesday,
and a Storm Surge Warning has been issued for that area.

3. Tropical storm conditions are expected to continue across
portions of central and western Cuba tonight, and spread northward
across portions of the Florida Keys and  the Florida west coast
through Wednesday, where a Tropical Storm Warning is in effect.

4. There is a risk of tropical storm conditions along portions of
the coasts of Georgia and the Carolinas Wednesday and Thursday.

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 800 PM EDT (0000 UTC), the center of Hurricane Elsa was located
by NOAA Doppler weather radars near latitude 26.6 North, longitude
83.1 West.  Elsa is moving toward the north near 10 mph (22 km/h),
and this general motion is expected to continue through tonight.  A
turn toward the north-northeast is expected on Wednesday, followed
by a faster northeastward motion by late Thursday.  On the forecast
track, Elsa will move near or over portions of the west coast of
Florida later tonight and early Wednesday morning.  Elsa is forecast
to make landfall along the north Florida Gulf coast by late
Wednesday morning and then move across the southeastern United
States through Thursday.

Data from the NOAA Doppler weather radar in Tampa Bay indicate that
maximum sustained winds are near 75 mph (120 km/h) with higher
gusts.  Some additional slight strengthening will be possible
overnight. Weakening will begin after Elsa moves inland by late
Wednesday morning.

Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 20 miles (32 km) from
the center. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 90 miles
(150 km) from the center. Buoy 42013, located due north of Elsa,
recently measured a peak 1-minute sustained wind of 38 mph (61 km/h)
gusting to 47 mph (76 km/h). A wind gust to 43 mph (69 mph) was
recently measured on North Captiva Island.

The estimated minimum central pressure is 996 mb (29.41 inches).


HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

Key messages for Elsa can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5, WMO header WTNT45 KNHC and
on the web at
www.hurricanes.gov/graphics_at5.shtml?key_messages.

WIND: Hurricane conditions are expected within the Hurricane Warning
area on the Florida Gulf coast beginning this evening. Tropical
storm conditions will continue over portions of the warning area in
the Florida Keys through this evening.  Tropical storm conditions
are expected to spread northward into west-central Florida and the
Florida Big Bend region in the warning areas tonight and early
Wednesday.  Tropical storm conditions are expected in the Tropical
Storm Warning area along the Georgia coast by late Wednesday and are
possible in the watch area in Georgia and South Carolina Wednesday
night and early Thursday.

STORM SURGE: The combination of a storm surge and the tide will
cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising
waters moving inland from the shoreline.  The water could reach the
following heights above ground somewhere in the indicated areas if
the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide...

Englewood, FL to Aucilla River including Tampa Bay...3 to 5 ft
Bonita Beach, FL to Englewood, FL including Charlotte Harbor...2 to
4 ft
Aucilla River to Ochlockonee River...2 to 4 ft
Flamingo, FL to Bonita Beach, FL...1 to 3 ft
Ochlockonee River to Indian Pass...1 to 2 ft
Mouth of St. Marys River to South Santee River, SC...1 to 2 ft

Surge-related flooding depends on the relative timing of the surge
and the tidal cycle, and can vary greatly over short distances.  For
information specific to your area, please see products issued by
your local National Weather Service forecast office.

RAINFALL: Across portions of Cuba through tonight, outer bands south
of Elsa will produce an additional 1 to 3 inches of rainfall.
Isolated storm totals of 15 inches are expected, which will maintain
areas of significant flash flooding and mudslides through tonight.

Elsa is expected to produce the following rainfall amounts and
impacts this week:

Across the Florida Keys into southwest and western portions of the
Florida Peninsula...3 to 6 inches with localized maximum totals up
to 9 inches through Wednesday, which may result in considerable
flash and urban flooding, along with minor to isolated moderate
river flooding.

Across the rest of Florida...2 to 4 inches with localized maximum
totals up to 6 inches through Wednesday night, which may result in
considerable isolated flash and urban flooding along with minor to
isolated moderate river flooding.

Across portions of southeast Georgia and the Lowcountry of South
Carolina, 3 to 5 inches with isolated maximum totals up to 8 inches
will be possible, which may result in considerable flash and urban
flooding.

Across coastal portions of North Carolina into southeastern
Virginia...1 to 3 inches with isolated totals up to 5 inches
Wednesday night through Thursday night, which could lead to isolated
flash and urban flooding.

TORNADOES: A few tornadoes are possible through tonight across the
Florida Peninsula.  The tornado threat will continue on Wednesday
across north Florida, southeast Georgia, and the Lowcountry of
South Carolina. The tornado threat should shift to the eastern
Carolinas and far southeast Virginia on Thursday.

SURF: Swells will spread northward across portions of the Florida
Keys and the west coast of Florida through early Wednesday.  These
swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current
conditions.  Please consult products from your local weather office
for more details.

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 200 AM EDT (0600 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Elsa was
located by an Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft, NOAA
Doppler weather radars, and surface observations near latitude
27.9 North, longitude 83.5 West.  Elsa is moving toward just west of
due north near 14 mph (22 km/h), and a general northward motion is
expected to continue through tonight.  A turn toward the
north-northeast is expected on Wednesday, followed by a faster
northeastward motion by late Thursday.  On the forecast track, Elsa
will move near or over portions of the west coast of Florida later
tonight and early Wednesday morning.  Elsa is forecast to make
landfall along the north Florida Gulf coast by late Wednesday
morning and then move across the southeastern United States through

Tropical Storm Elsa Discussion Number  29
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL052021
500 AM EDT Wed Jul 07 2021

The central convection associated with Elsa dissipated for a time
earlier this morning, although the latest radar and satellite
imagery shows a new band forming in the northern semicircle.  This
decrease was likely caused by a combination of shear and dry air
entrainment, and it has caused the cyclone to weaken.  Aircraft and
surface observations indicate the central pressure has risen to
near 1004 mb, and the initial intensity is decreased to a possibly
generous 55 kt based on aircraft and Doppler radar data.

After a slight jog to the left, the storm has resumed a motion of
360/12. This motion should continue for the next 12 h or so until
landfall occurs across the northwestern Florida peninsula.
Thereafter, a gradual turn toward the north-northeast is expected
by, followed by acceleration toward the northeast as Elsa moves
into the mid-latitude westerlies.  The forecast guidance has
shifted a little to the left since the last advisory, and the new
forecast track is also nudged in that direction.  The new track
lies a little to the right of the various consensus models.

While little change in strength is forecast before landfall, there
is a chance that the new convection could cause a short-lived
re-intensification.  So, based on this possibility a hurricane
warning remains in effect for portions of the west coast of
Florida.  After landfall, Elsa should weaken as it crosses the
southeastern United States, followed by some re-intensification as
it accelerates back over the Atlantic.  The system is expected to
become extratropical by the time it reaches the Canadian Maritimes
in 72 h.  The new intensity forecast is at the upper edge of the
guidance envelope and has only minor adjustments from the previous
forecast.


Key Messages:

1. As Elsa moves across the western and northern Florida Peninsula
today, heavy rainfall may result in considerable flash, urban, and
isolated moderate river flooding.  Heavy rainfall across southeast
Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and southeastern Virginia
may result in isolated flash and urban flooding, with considerable
flash and urban flooding possible across coastal Georgia and the
Lowcountry of South Carolina. Heavy rainfall across the Northeast
and New England Thursday and Friday could lead to isolated flash and
urban flooding.

2. There is a danger of life-threatening storm surge along portions
of the west coast of Florida today, and a Storm Surge Warning is in
effect for that area.

3. Hurricane conditions are possible during the next several
hours along a portion of the west coast of Florida, where a
Hurricane Warning is in effect.  Tropical storm conditions are
occurring across portions of the western Florida peninsula and will
continue to spread northward along the west coast of the state
within the warning area through today.

4. Although the center of Elsa is expected to remain inland of the
coastline from Georgia through the Carolinas during the next day
or two, tropical storm conditions are expected along much of the
coasts of Georgia and South Carolina.  Tropical storm conditions
are also possible along the coast of the mid-Atlantic state by
Thursday night or Friday.

today, which may result in considerable flash and urban flooding,
along with minor to isolated moderate river flooding.

Across portions of southeast Georgia and the Lowcountry of South
Carolina, 2 to 4 inches with isolated maximum totals up to 6 inches
will be possible, which may result in considerable flash and urban
flooding.

Across eastern North Carolina into southeastern Virginia...1 to 3
inches with isolated totals up to 5 inches tonight through Thursday
night, which could lead to isolated flash and urban flooding.

Across the Northeast and New England, 1 to 3 inches with isolated
totals up to 5 inches Thursday into Friday will be possible. This
could lead to isolated flash and urban flooding.

TORNADOES: A few tornadoes are possible today and tonight across
northern Florida and southeastern Georgia into eastern South
Carolina.  The tornado threat should shift to the eastern Carolinas
and far southeast Virginia on Thursday.

SURF: Swells will continue to affect portions of the west coast of
Florida through today.  These swells are likely to cause
life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.  Please consult
products from your local weather office for more details.

Tropical Storm Elsa Discussion Number  35
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL052021
500 PM EDT Thu Jul 08 2021

A NOAA NOS observing site at Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina,
recently reported a sustained wind of 41 kt, so Elsa's maximum winds
are now estimated to be 45 kt.  A number of other observing sites in
the vicinity have also reported sustained tropical-storm-force
winds.  Elsa's slight strengthening may be the result of baroclinic
forcing associated with an approaching short-wave trough. The
system's cloud tops have warmed somewhat during the day, but it is
still producing some very heavy rains.

Elsa's low-level center is a bit elongated from southwest to
northeast, but surface synoptic data indicate that it has moved into
northern North Carolina.  The storm continues to gradually
accelerate toward the northeast, and the initial motion estimate is
040/18 kt.  A faster northeastward motion is expected over the next
1-2 days as the cyclone moves along with the mid-latitude
southwesterly flow ahead of a broad mid-tropospheric trough over the
eastern United States and Canada.  Elsa should move near or
over southeastern New England and Atlantic Canada within the next
24-48 hours.  The official track forecast remains close to the
previous one and similar to the multi-model consensus, TVCA.

The global models suggest that not much additional strengthening is
likely.  Simulated satellite imagery from these models show an
extratropical appearance in 24-36 hours so the official forecast
shows an extratropical transition by late Friday.  This is also
supported by cyclone phase analyses of the model fields from
Florida State University.


Key Messages:

1.As Elsa moves from North Carolina to Virginia today and this
evening, heavy rainfall may result in limited flash and urban
flooding. Heavy rainfall from the Mid-Atlantic into New England
through Friday could lead to considerable flash and urban flooding.

2. Tropical storm conditions should continue along portions of the
North Carolina coast this afternoon and spread over the
mid-Atlantic coast later today or tonight.  Tropical storm
conditions are expected in portions of the southern New England
states and New York by Friday.  Gusty winds are expected over
portions of Atlantic Canada Friday night and Saturday.

Tropical Storm Elsa Discussion Number  37
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL052021
500 AM EDT Fri Jul 09 2021

Elsa has become better organized this early Friday morning as
evidenced by a tightly coiled convective band that wraps completely
around the low-level circulation center, along with Doppler radar
velocities of more than 80 kt detected between 3000-7000 ft.
Upper-level outflow has expanded in all directions except the
southwestern quadrant, and the GFS and ECMWF models have assessed
the vertical wind shear to only be 10 kt and 13 kt, respectively,
over the center. Wind gusts to 68 kt and 62 kt were recently
measured in Ludlam Bay, New Jersey, and Beach Haven, New Jersey,
respectively. However, radar data suggest that these wind gusts were
possibly associated with the passage of nearby tornadic circulations
and were not due to Elsa's larger wind field. The central pressure
of 1000 mb is based on a nearby pressure report of 1000.6 mb from
the Ludlam Bay, New Jersey, WeatherFlow site, but this value could
be conservative. The initial wind speed remains 45 kt based on
recent observations from offshore buoys.

The initial motion is estimated to be 045/27 kt. Elsa is forecast
by the latest global and regional models to continue accelerating
northeastward today through Saturday due to the system being
embedded within deep-layer southwesterly mid-latitude flow. Elsa
should move over southeastern New England today and over Atlantic
Canada late tonight and on Saturday. The new NHC track forecast lies
on top of the previous advisory track and is close to the middle of
the tightly packed simple- and corrected-consensus track models.

Elsa will be moving over 22-deg-C and cooler sea-surface
temperatures by 6 hours and beyond, which should further hasten
the ongoing extratropical transition process. This transition is
expected to be completed in 18 hours or so when Elsa is forecast to
be located over Atlantic Canada.

Key Messages:

1. As Elsa moves near Long Island and southern and coastal New
England today, heavy rainfall could lead to considerable flash
and urban flooding.

2. Tropical storm conditions should continue along portions of the
mid-Atlantic coast early this morning. Tropical storm conditions
are expected in portions of the southern New England states and New
York by late this morning and afternoon.  Gusty winds are expected
over portions of Atlantic Canada tonight and Saturday.

Tropical Storm Elsa Discussion Number  38
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL052021
1100 AM EDT Fri Jul 09 2021

The extratropical transition of Elsa is well underway.  A frontal
boundary located over southern New England nearly wraps into the
circulation center, and the primary area of cold cloud tops and
heavy rainfall has now shifted to the northwestern portion of the
cyclone.  Elsa is expected to complete its extratropical transition
this afternoon.  Buoy and surface observations indicate that the
cyclone's intensity has changed little since early this morning.
Based on those data, Elsa's peak winds and minimum pressure
remain 45 kt and 1000 mb for this advisory, respectively.

Elsa continues to move quickly northeastward or 045/27 kt.  The
post-tropical cyclone is forecast to continue accelerating
northeastward over the next day or two as it remains embedded
within deep-layer southwesterly flow.  After 48 hours, the system is
expected to slow before it dissipates over the north Atlantic
around day 3.  The track guidance remains in good agreement, but has
shifted slightly southward after 24 hours and the NHC forecast has
been adjusted accordingly.

Little change in strength is anticipated in the short-term as Elsa
completes its extratropical transition.  After that time, gradual
weakening is anticipated and the wind speed forecast calls for the
system to weaken below gale-force in a couple of days.  The global
models show the post-tropical cyclone dissipating over the north
Atlantic by early next week, and the official forecast follows
suit.

Key Messages:

1. As Elsa moves near southern and coastal New England today, heavy
rainfall could lead to considerable flash and urban flooding.

2. Tropical storm conditions are expected to continue in portions
of the warning area in Long Island and southern New England
through this afternoon. Gusty winds are expected over portions of
Atlantic Canada tonight and Saturday.
