Tropical Depression Seven-E Discussion Number 1
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP072021
900 AM MDT Sat Jul 17 2021
The broad low pressure system that the NHC has been monitoring for
the past few days well offshore the southwestern coast of Mexico
has finally developed enough organized deep convection and a
well-defined inner-core wind field to be classified as a tropical
depression. The initial intensity is estimated to be 30 kt, which is
a little below the consensus T2.5/35-kt classifications from TAFB
and SAB.
The initial motion estimate is an uncertain 295/15 kt due to the
lack of a well-defined center prior to 1200 UTC. Regardless, the
global and regional models are in exceptionally good agreement on
the cyclone moving west-northwestward today, and then turning toward
the west by late tonight or early Sunday, with that general motion
continuing through 72 hours. Thereafter, the deep-layer subtropical
ridge to the north that will steer the system for the next 5 days is
expected to build slightly southward, nudging the cyclone on a
west-southwestward track at 96 and 120 hours. The NHC forecast track
lies close to but a little slower than the various consensus models
out of respect for the slower GFS and GFS-ensemble models, which are
forecasting a stronger and, thus, more vertically deep tropical
cyclone that should move slower compared to the other weaker models.
During the next 48 hours or so, the cyclone is expected to remain
embedded within an environment conducive for strengthening,
characterized by light wind shear (<10 kt), sea-surface temperatures
(SST) above 27 deg C, and deep moisture through the low- to
mid-levels of the troposphere. Furthermore, a large upper-level low
located just west of the Baja California peninsula, which has been
enhancing the poleward outflows of this disturbance and Hurricane
Felicia farther to the west, is forecast to persist for at least the
next couple of days. All of these favorable conditions argue for at
least modest strengthening during that time, with the only hindering
factor being the large size of the system's circulation. Thereafter,
the cyclone will move over sub-26C SSTs, which should act to cap the
intensification process despite the low vertical wind shear
conditions that are expected to persist. However, the rate of
weakening is forecast to be a little slower than normal due to the
southern half of the circulation remaining over warmer waters, which
will provide warm moist inflow to help fuel thunderstorms near the
inner-core. The NHC intensity forecast closely follows the NOAA-HCCA
consensus model through 60 hours, and then is a little above all of
the consensus models thereafter.
