THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER IS ISSUING ADVISORIES ON HURRICANE JOVA...LOCATED ABOUT 220 MILES SOUTHWEST OF MANZANILLO MEXICO...AND ON TROPICAL STORM IRWIN...LOCATED ABOUT 745 MILES SOUTHWEST OF THE SOUTHERN TIP OF BAJA CALIFORNIA.
SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM LOCATED A FEW HUNDRED MILES SOUTH OF THE GULF OF TEHUANTEPEC HAS CHANGED LITTLE AND REMAINS DISPLACED TO THE WEST OF THE CENTER OF CIRCULATION. HOWEVER...UPPER-LEVEL WINDS COULD BECOME A LITTLE MORE CONDUCIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS THE LOW MOVES GENERALLY TOWARD THE NORTHEAST AT 5 TO 10 MPH. THIS SYSTEM HAS A MEDIUM CHANCE...50 PERCENT...OF BECOMING A TROPICAL CYCLONE DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS. INTERESTS ALONG THE PACIFIC COASTS OF SOUTHEASTERN MEXICO...GUATEMALA...EL SALVADOR...HONDURAS...AND NICARAGUA SHOULD MONITOR THE PROGRESS OF THIS DISTURBANCE.
ELSEWHERE…TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION IS NOT EXPECTED DURING THE NEXT 48 HOURS.

Hawaii Weather Overview
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT: The trade winds are being driven by a moderately strong high pressure system far to the northeast of the islands. This high is located well over half way towards the California coast, although it has an associated ridge of high pressure extending west-southwest back to a point around 30 degrees north latitude...to the north of our islands. These moderately strong trade winds will hold steady through the weekend, into the first several days of the new week ahead. There's a chance that some change in our wind speeds and directions could occur beginning during the second half of next week.
Showers will continue to be drawn over the windward sides of the islands, as showery clouds get carried our way on the trade wind flow. We've seen a few showers being carried all the way over into the leeward sides on the smaller islands. The clouds upstream of the islands look fairly normal at this time, so there doesn't appear to be anything unusual on tap in terms of our precipitation through the next 5-6 days. Towards the second half of the upcoming new work week, around next Thursday or Friday, the models are suggesting that we may see some changes coming our way...stay tuned.
Special Weather Summary
Eastern Pacific tropical cyclones Jova and Irwin
The eastern north Pacific continues to be very active at the moment, with a hurricane, a tropical storm, and an area under investigation, with a moderate 50% chance of developing into a tropical cyclone...all happening within a fairly small area of the ocean.
Hurricane Irwin: Irwin is the farthest west of these three tropical systems, near 14N and 122W. The current sustained winds near the center are 92 mph, with gusts to 115 mph. The NHC forecast has this tropical cyclone remaining at the hurricane level through the middle of the new week ahead. Rather than heading towards the west or north, as if often the case, this hurricane veers around towards the east, as it moves towards mainland Mexico, well to the south of the southern tip of Baja, California.

Tropical Storm Jova: Jova is involved in a somewhat unfavorable environment for strengthening, although this is expected to change later Saturday, at which point a rapid intensification could take place. The sustained winds at the time of this writing were still in the tropical storm category, blowing 65 mph, with gusts to near 75 mph. The NHC forecast brings Jova to a hurricane by late Saturday morning. This storm is forecast to become a major hurricane as it approaches the Mexican coast this coming Monday night.

Invest 99E: This tropical disturbance has formed a few hundred miles south of the Gulf of Tehuantepec, with a 50% chance of developing into a tropical depression during the next two days. If this disturbance were to strengthen into a tropical depression, it would be given the number 12E, and if further development took place...given the name Kenneth.

Hawaii Weather Overview
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT: The trade winds remain our major weather element, although the high surf along our leeward beaches have been giving our locally gusty winds a run for their money in this regard. A full bodied 1026 millibar high pressure system remains more or less parked to our north-northeast. This trade wind producing high pressure center will gradually be shifting eastward, and as it does...our local winds will slack-off slightly through the next 4-5 days. The small craft wind advisories, which we've in place around Maui County and the Big Island most of this week, have been dropped now, in anticipation of these slightly lighter trades.
In the rain department, there will continue to be those occasional showers. This will as usual, focus their efforts most effectively along our north and east facing windward coasts and slopes. Local radar shows that there have been a few showers sporting medium intensities, although these have remained offshore to the south of the islands. The rather extensive high cirrus clouds of late, continue to spread over the islands. These icy clouds don't drop rain over our islands, or over the surrounding ocean either, although they certainly dim our sunshine during the days. The up side of this however is the colorful sunrise and sunset colors.
Looking into next week, after finishing off this week in a rather pleasant way, we find some possible changes around next Thursday. The GFS forecast model shows a cold front extending down into the subtropics to our northwest. Then, around the middle of next week a low pressure system forms along the tail-end of this frontal boundary. It's still too early to know exactly what changes may result in our local weather then, although perhaps a week from today...we could see the possibility of some showers arriving around Friday into the weekend.

PDC Senior Weather Specialist
Glenn James has been working with PDC for two decades as lead meteorologist, bringing together the most accurate, up-to-date tropical cyclone developments from around the world into a single, one-stop weather page. Glenn is a meteorologist working in the area of tropical cyclone activity in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans and has degrees in Physical Geography/Meteorology from Sonoma State University in northern California. He taught at the University of Hawaii, Maui campus for ten years, before joining the Pacific Disaster Center as the Senior Weather Specialist in 1996. He was awarded the Dr. Arthur N.L. Chiu Award (for Hurricane Preparedness) by the Hawaii Emergency Management Agency in 2015. What our partners are saying about us...
| Title | Address | Description |
|---|---|---|
Kenta Hamasaki | Honolulu, HI, USA | THE CONSULATE GENERAL OF JAPAN, HONOLULU, HI (2016) "Aloha Julie. Hello. After the registration [for DisasterAWARE], I started to receive warnings such as Typhoon Meranti. That data contains necessary info and is so graphic that it's easy to know at a glance how the impact is. This is very important for our duties. Thank you again." |
Paulo Bayly | Fiji | PERMANENT SECRETARY, MINISTRY OF INFRASTRUCTURE & TRANSPORT, FIJI (2016) "Thank you and your team for so quickly responding to our needs." |
Ana Ake | Tonga | MINISTRY OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATIONS, KINGDOM OF TONGA (2017) "I was first introduced to EMOPS (DisasterAWARE)...during a HA/DR training in Auckland this year. I've worked with several tools and it is obvious that EMOPS is the only sustainable tool that is available and is openly available." |
Jonathan Colwell | California, USA | GOESPATIAL COORDINATOR, DHS-FEMA REGION 9 (2016) "EMOPS (DisasterAWARE) made my day so much easier while monitoring [Tropical Cyclone] AMOS.

These products were used daily in planning and public outreach, and in briefing national officials, including the Prime Minister, to prepare effectively. In addition, PDC team members gathered, analyzed, and disseminated critical information that helped organize crucial emergency support functions with the responsibility for evacuation |
John Marinos | Bangkok, Thailand | Regional Information Management Officer I was specifically asked to pass on to you how everyone was impressed and grateful for the JADE for the Afghanistan scenario.
