A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area within 36 hours. A Tropical Storm Watch means that tropical storm conditions are possible within the watch area, generally within 48 hours. For storm information specific to your area in the United States, including possible inland watches and warnings, please monitor products issued by your local National Weather Service forecast office. For storm information specific to your area outside of the United States, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 500 AM AST (0900 UTC), the center of Hurricane Fiona was located near latitude 18.5 North, longitude 68.6 West. Fiona is moving toward the northwest near 8 mph (13 km/h). This general motion is expected to continue through tonight, followed by a turn toward the north-northwest on Tuesday and the north on Wednesday. On the forecast track, the center of Fiona will move over the eastern portion of the Dominican Republic this morning and emerge over the southwestern Atlantic this afternoon. The center is forecast to pass near or to the east of the Turks and Caicos on Tuesday. Maximum sustained winds are near 90 mph (150 km/h) with higher gusts. Some strengthening is expected during the next few days after the hurricane emerges over the southwestern Atlantic, and Fiona is forecast to become a major hurricane by Wednesday. Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 30 miles (45 km) from the center and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 150 miles (240 km). The Punta Cana International Airport recently reported a sustained wind of 58 mph (93 km/h) and a gust of 78 mph (126 km/h). The estimated minimum central pressure is 977 mb (28.85 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Hurricane Fiona can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT2 and WMO header WTNT42 KNHC and on the web at hurricanes.gov/text/MIATCDAT2.shtml. WIND: Hurricane conditions are occurring in portions of the eastern Dominican Republic within the warning area, and are expected in the Turks and Caicos on Tuesday. Hurricane conditions are possible within the hurricane watch area in the Dominican Republic later today. Tropical storm conditions will continue on portions of Puerto Rico this morning, and over portions of the Dominican Republic within the warning areas through today. Tropical storm conditions are expected in portions of the southeastern Bahamas by early Tuesday. Tropical storm conditions are possible across the watch area in the Dominican Republic today. RAINFALL: Fiona is forecast to produce the following rainfall: British and U.S. Virgin Islands: Additional 1 to 2 inches. Storm Total up to 10 inches on St. Croix. Southern Puerto Rico: Additional 4 to 6 inches with local maximum of 10 inches. Storm Total 12 to 20 inches with local maximum of 30 inches. Northern Puerto Rico: Additional 1 to 4 inches with local maximum of 6 inches. Storm Total 4 to 12 inches with local maximum of 20 inches. Northern and Eastern Dominican Republic: Additional 4 to 6 inches with local maximum of 8 inches. Storm Total up to 15 inches in the eastern section. Rest of Dominican Republic and Haiti: 1 to 4 inches. Turks and Caicos: 4 to 8 inches. Southeast Bahamas: 1 to 3 inches. These rains will continue to produce life-threatening and catastrophic flooding along with mudslides and landslides across Puerto Rico. Life-threatening flash and urban flooding is likely for eastern portions of the Dominican Republic. STORM SURGE: The combination of storm surge and the tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising waters moving inland from the shoreline. Localized coastal flooding remains possible along the southern coast of Puerto Rico. For information specific to your area, please see products issued by your local National Weather Service forecast office. Storm surge will raise water levels by as much as 3 to 5 feet above normal tide levels along the immediate coast in areas of onshore winds in the Dominican Republic. Storm surge could raise water levels by as much as 2 to 4 feet above normal tide levels along the immediate coast in areas of onshore winds in the Turks and Caicos Monday night into Tuesday. SURF: Swells generated by Fiona are affecting the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, the northern coast of the Dominican Republic, the Turks and Caicos Islands, and the southeastern Bahamas. These swells will continue to spread westward across the southwestern Atlantic toward the central and northwestern Bahamas and the east coast of the United States through midweek. These conditions could cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.

Hurricane Fiona Forecast Discussion Number 20
NOAA NWS - NHC Page
Issued at 500 AM AST Mon Sep 19 2022
000 WTNT42 KNHC 190856 TCDAT2 Hurricane Fiona Discussion Number 20 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL072022 500 AM AST Mon Sep 19 2022 Fiona strengthened before making landfall as an 80-kt hurricane in the Dominican Republic to the south-southwest of Punta Cana around 0730 UTC this morning. Data from the Air Force Hurricane Hunters around 0500 UTC indicated a closed eye, with a minimum pressure that had fallen to 979 mb. Soon thereafter, the eye cleared out in infrared satellite imagery and the inner core structure improved in NWS San Juan radar data. The center of Fiona is currently inland over the eastern Dominican Republic, but radar data indicate that the outer rainbands of Fiona continue to move northward across Puerto Rico. The initial intensity is 80 kt for this advisory. Although the longer-term motion of Fiona is west-northwestward, the center has been moving more northwestward (310/7 kt) over the past few hours. This motion should continue as Fiona crosses the eastern portion of the Dominican Republic this morning and then emerges into the southwestern Atlantic. After moving away from land, the tightly clustered track guidance shows Fiona turning north-northwestward and northward through midweek around the western extent of a subtropical ridge. Then, an acceleration to the north-northeast is forecast late this week as Fiona moves within the flow ahead of an amplifying deep-layer trough that will move off the northeastern U.S. coast. The NHC track forecast remains very close to the previous one and lies near the center of the guidance envelope. It is, however, a bit slower with the recurvature of Fiona later this week, as reflected in the latest consensus aids. As the center of Fiona crosses the Dominican Republic, land interaction may briefly disrupt the organization of the hurricane and result in some short-term weakening. However, as Fiona moves away from land, more significant strengthening is expected while it moves across SSTs greater than 29C within a fairly moist and unstable environment over the western Atlantic. The latest intensity guidance unanimously calls for strengthening during the next few days, and the latest NHC forecast generally falls between the IVCN and HCCA aids. This brings Fiona up to major hurricane strength by Wednesday. As the hurricane accelerates deeper into the mid-latitudes and begins interacting with a deep-layer trough, it is expected to begin extratropical transition by day 5, although the process will likely not be completed until after the end of the forecast period. Key Messages: 1. Hurricane conditions are spreading across portions of the Dominican Republic within the warning area. Tropical storm conditions will continue on Puerto Rico through this morning and over portions of the Dominican Republic within the warning area through tonight. 2. Heavy rains from outer bands of Fiona will continue across Puerto Rico into this afternoon. The center of Fiona will persist over eastern Dominican Republic into this afternoon with heavy bands then lasting through tonight. These rainfall amounts will continue to produce life-threatening and catastrophic flooding along with mudslides and landslides across Puerto Rico. Life-threatening flash and urban flooding is likely for eastern portions of the Dominican Republic. 3. Fiona is forecast to strengthen after moving away from Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic. Hurricane conditions are expected in the Turks and Caicos on Tuesday, and tropical storm conditions are expected in the southeastern Bahamas by late Monday or early Tuesday.
