Subject: Intersantisima discusion de la depresion,,,

Lamentablemente esta en ingles y es largisima. Pero.. en resumidas cuentas... No saben con exactitud donde se encuentra el centro... SI HAY ALGUNO... creen que este es bien pequenito y esta cerca de barbados. La ultima posicion la estimaron basada en el ultimo "burst de conveccion" y los vientos fueron subidos basados en los consistentes numeros Dvorak que han permanecido en 2.0 por todo el dia de hoy, ademas de algunas barras no contaminadas del quikSCAT que muestran 30 y 35 nudos.

Para mi que al momento NHC no sabe ni siquiera si hay una circulacion en los bajos niveles y mucho menos no sabe donde se encuentra...Probablemente esto sea nada mas que una onda tropical bien fuerte en estos momentos. Manana el Avion y los reportes de las islas nos daran una idea mas clara de esta depresion tropical o puedo decir Strong Tropical WAVE???

By the way...si sigue a esa velocidad y en esas condiciones (desorganizada) podria pasar bien al sur y los efectos locales serian menores...Claro si se debilita y la degradan a onda, la convecion podria regarse mas hacia el norte y luego que pase el eje de la onda digamos tarde el jueves y en la noche del jueves veamos algo de lluvia...

TROPICAL DEPRESSION TWO DISCUSSION NUMBER 3
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
11 PM EDT TUE AUG 03 2004

DIFFICULTY REMAINS IN DETERMINING THE CENTER POSITION OF THE
DEPRESSION. MICROWAVE DATA OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS SUGGESTS THAT THE
LOW- AND MID-LEVEL CENTER MAY BE A LITTLE FARTHER SOUTH THAN
CONVENTIONAL SATELLITE FIXES HAVE BEEN BEEN INDICATING. THE
ADVISORY POSITION IS A COMPROMISE BETWEEN THE PREVIOUS FORECAST
TRACK POSITIONS AND THE MICROWAVE POSITIONS...AND CLOSE TO WHERE
THE LATEST BURST OF CONVECTION HAS BEEN OCCURRING. AS MENTIONED IN
THE PREVIOUS ADVISORIES...IF THERE IS A CLOSED SURFACE CIRCULATION
...THEN IT IS LIKELY A VERY SMALL AND TIGHT CIRCULATION AS
SUGGESTED BY THE WEAK WINDS BEING REPORTED AT NEARBY BARBADOS. A
RECON FLIGHT WEDNESDAY MORNING SHOULD GIVE US SOME ANSWERS. THE
INITIAL INTENSITY IS INCREASED TO 30 KT BASED ON CONSECUTIVE
SATELLITE INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 35 KT AND 30 KT FROM TAFB AND
SAB...RESPECTIVELY...AND SOME 25 TO NEAR 30 KT UNCONTAMINATED WIND
SPEEDS IN A 03/2208Z QUIKSCAT OVERPASS.

THE INITIAL MOTION ESTIMATE IS 280/19...BUT THE CYCLONE MAY BE
MOVING CLOSER TO 270 DEGREES. HOWEVER...THE NHC MODEL GUIDANCE
REMAINS IN EXCELLENT AGREEMENT ON AN UNSEASONABLY STRONG COLD FRONT
AND ASSOCIATED DEEP-LAYER TROUGH DIGGING SOUTHEASTWARD INTO THE
SOUTHEASTERN U.S. AND AS FAR SOUTH AS FLORIDA AND THE BAHAMAS. THIS
SHOULD EFFECTIVELY ERODE THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE SUBTROPICAL
RIDGE AND ALLOW THE CYCLONE TO SLOW DOWN SOUTH OF PUERTO RICO AND
HISPANIOLA AND GRADUALLY TURN NORTHWESTWARD BY 36 HOURS...AND THEN
NORTHWARD BY 72 HOURS. THE OFFICIAL TRACK IS CLOSE TO THE PREVIOUS
FORECAST TRACK AND IS IN AGREEMENT WITH THE NHC MODEL CONSENSUS.

THE INTENSITY FORECAST REMAINS BASICALLY UNCHANGED FROM THE PREVIOUS
ADVISORIES AND IS IN AGREEMENT WITH THE GFDL AND SHIPS INTENSITY
MODELS...WHICH BRING THE CYCLONE UP TO 51 KT AND 57 KT IN 48 HOURS
...RESPECTIVELY...WHEN THE CYCLONE IS NEAR THE SOUTHERN COAST OF
THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.

GIVEN THE RELATIVELY FAST FORWARD SPEED OF THE DEPRESSION...IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT A CLOSED SURFACE CIRCULATION MAY NOT EXIST.
HOWEVER...TROPICAL STORM FORCE WINDS CAN STILL OCCUR AT HIGHER
ELEVATIONS ACROSS THE ISLANDS...ESPECIALLY ABOVE 1000 FEET.
