000 WTNT32 KNHC 260234 TCPAT2 BULLETIN Post-Tropical Cyclone Epsilon Advisory Number 29 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL272020 300 AM GMT Mon Oct 26 2020 ...EPSILON BECOMES A POWERFUL POST-TROPICAL CYCLONE OVER THE NORTH ATLANTIC... ...THIS WILL BE THE LAST NHC ADVISORY ON EPSILON... SUMMARY OF 300 AM GMT...0300 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...48.6N 38.8W ABOUT 675 MI...1090 KM ENE OF CAPE RACE NEWFOUNDLAND MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...70 MPH...110 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...NE OR 55 DEGREES AT 46 MPH...74 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...968 MB...28.59 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 300 AM GMT (0300 UTC), the center of Post-Tropical Cyclone Epsilon was located near latitude 48.6 North, longitude 38.8 West. The post-tropical cyclone is moving toward the northeast near 46 mph (74 km/h), and this general motion is expected to continue through Monday night. Maximum sustained winds are near 70 mph (110 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is forecast during the next day or so before the post-tropical cyclone is absorbed by a large extratropical low pressure system on Monday night or early Tuesday. Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 450 miles (720 km) from the center. The estimated minimum central pressure is 968 mb (28.59 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- SURF: Large swells generated by Epsilon will affect Bermuda, the Bahamas, the Greater Antilles, the Leeward Islands, portions of the east coast of the United States, and Atlantic Canada through Monday. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office. NEXT ADVISORY ------------- This is the last public advisory issued by the National Hurricane Center on Epsilon. Additional information on this system can be found in High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service, under AWIPS header NFDHSFAT1, WMO header FZNT01 KWBC, and online at ocean.weather.gov/shtml/NFDHSFAT1.php $$ Forecaster Reinhart/Zelinsky

000 WTNT42 KNHC 260236 TCDAT2 Post-Tropical Cyclone Epsilon Discussion Number 29 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL272020 300 AM GMT Mon Oct 26 2020 Recent satellite-derived wind data indicate that Epsilon no longer has the structure of a tropical cyclone. The low-level circulation is stretched out along a north-south axis, with an area of lighter winds noted near and north of the ill-defined center. Furthermore, infrared cloud tops have warmed over the past several hours as convection wanes near the center. Therefore, Epsilon has been declared a post-tropical cyclone, and this will be the last NHC advisory for the system. A partial 22Z ASCAT-A overpass showed at least 55-kt winds in the southern semicircle of the cyclone, which supports keeping the initial intensity at 60 kt. Post-tropical Epsilon is firmly embedded in the mid-latitude westerlies, and the cyclone will continue racing northeastward at around 35-40 kt for the next day or so. The cyclone will remain a very powerful and dangerous storm until it is absorbed by another large extratropical low pressure system over the northeastern Atlantic. The global models remain in very good agreement with this scenario, and no notable changes were made to the official NHC forecast.
