NOAA’s National Hurricane Center issued a Public Advisory at 8 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Wednesday, September 25, 2019, due to the presence of Post-Tropical Cyclone Jerry over the Atlantic.
Post-Tropical Cyclone Jerry Projected Path
Post-Tropical Cyclone Jerry is located 155 miles west of Bermuda and is moving to the northeast at 7 mph (11 km/h).
A continued northeasterly motion is expected through today followed by a turn toward the east on Thursday.
On the National Hurricane Center forecast track, the center of Jerry is expected to pass near Bermuda later today.
Post-Tropical Cyclone Jerry Computer Models
Spaghetti models, including the European model (orange triangle) and GFS model (purple square), are in general agreement that Jerry will curve in a loop to the southeast over the open Atlantic.
The dynamical models indicate that Jerry will dissipate in about 4 days and the official NHC forecast track (red circle) does as well.
Post-Tropical Cyclone Jerry Category Strength
Post-Tropical Cyclone Jerry has maximum sustained winds of 45 mph (75 km/h), with higher gusts.
Post-Tropical Cyclone Jerry is a tropical storm on the Saffir-Simpson Wind Scale.
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles (220 km) from the center of the tropical cyclone.
Post-Tropical Cyclone Jerry Watches And Warnings
A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for Bermuda.
A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area within 24 hours.
NOAA forecasts an ‘above-normal’ 2019 Atlantic Hurricane Season which runs from June 1 through November 30.
