DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 1100 PM AST (0300 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Jerry was located near latitude 12.8 North, longitude 48.7 West. Jerry is moving toward the west-northwest near 23 mph (37 km/h). This general motion is expected to continue with a decrease in forward speed during the next couple of days. On the forecast track, the core of the system is expected to be near or to the north of the northern Leeward Islands late Thursday and Friday. Recent satellite wind data indicate that maximum sustained winds are near 50 mph (85 km/h) with higher gusts. Strengthening is forecast during the next couple of days, and Jerry is expected to become a hurricane by Wednesday night or Thursday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 140 miles (220 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1003 mb (29.62 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Tropical Storm Jerry can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header WTNT45 KNHC. WIND: Tropical storm conditions are possible in portions of the northern Leeward Islands late Thursday and Friday, where Tropical Storm Watches are in effect. RAINFALL: On Thursday, 2 to 4 inches of rain are expected across the Leeward Islands due to Jerry. This rainfall brings a risk of flash flooding, especially in areas of higher terrain. For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall and flash flooding associated with Jerry, please see the National Weather Service Storm Total Rainfall Graphic, available at hurricanes.gov/graphics_at5.shtml?rainqpf SURF: Swells generated by Jerry are expected to reach the Leeward Islands on Thursday. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. A depiction of rip current risk for the United States can be found at: hurricanes.gov/graphics_at5.shtml?ripCurrents NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next intermediate advisory at 200 AM AST.

Tropical Storm Jerry Forecast Discussion Number 3
Issued at 1100 PM AST Tue Oct 07 2025000 WTNT45 KNHC 080234 TCDAT5 Tropical Storm Jerry Discussion Number 3 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL102025 1100 PM AST Tue Oct 07 2025 Satellite imagery and scatterometer data indicate that Jerry is somewhat disorganized this evening. Satellite imagery has been showing an exposed swirl of low-level clouds to the northwest and west of the convective mass, with scatterometer data suggesting this was the western end of an elongated surface circulation. The maximum scatterometer winds were in the 40-45 kt range, so the initial intensity remains 45 kt. NOAA and Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunter aircraft are scheduled to investigate Jerry tomorrow. The initial motion is now west-northwestward or 285/20 kt. Jerry is currently on the south side of a strong low-level ridge, and this features should steer the storm west-northwestward for the next couple of days with some decrease in forward speed. This motion should take the core of Jerry near or to the north of the northern Leeward Islands late Thursday and Friday. This part of the forecast track is close to the various consensus models. However, the global model forecasts lie to the right of the consensus models, while the HAFS/HWRF models and the Google DeepMind ensemble mean are to the left of them. After the cyclone passes the Leeward Islands, it is expected to turn northward and eventually northeastward due to the development of a deep-layer trough over the eastern United States and the western Atlantic. Overall, the new forecast track is nudged just a little to the left of the previous track through 96 h. The latest satellite imagery and model analyses suggest that the environment Jerry is in is not quite as conducive for strengthening as thought earlier, with the cyclone likely to remain in moderate westerly shear for the next two to three days. In addition, the current structure favors a slower development rate. The latest intensity guidance has responded to these developments by being less bullish on developing the storm. While the new intensity forecast calls for the same 85 kt peak intensity as the previous forecast, it shows a slower rate of development, and the new forecast lies above the intensity consensus models. Based on the forecast and the uncertainties, Tropical Storm Watches have been issued for portions of the northern Leeward Islands. Interests elsewhere in the Leeward Islands, the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico should monitor the progress of Jerry. Key Messages: 1. Jerry is forecast to strengthen and could bring tropical storm conditions to portions of the northern Leeward Islands, where Tropical Storm Watches have been issued. 2. Heavy rainfall will impact portions of the Leeward Islands on Thursday, which could result in flash flooding, particularly in areas of higher terrain.
