Monthly Global Tropical Cyclone Tracks October 2000 [Summaries and Track Data] [Prepared by Gary Padgett] |
GLOBAL TROPICAL CYCLONE TRACKS - OCTOBER 2000
ATLANTIC (ATL) - North Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico
NOTE: The tracking and intensity information for Atlantic Basin
tropical cyclones is based upon operational advisories from
the Tropical Prediction Center/National Hurricane Center,
located in Miami, Florida, USA. The MSW are based on a
1-min averaging period, which is used by all U.S. civilian
and military weather services for tropical cyclone warnings.
A special thanks to David Roth for sending me tracks for two
subtropical systems plus the early subtropical stages of
Hurricane Michael; and also to Michael Pitt for sending some
tracking information on the subtropical storm in late October.

Note: The above track was compiled by David Roth of HPC. The pressures
and winds reported are based completely upon ship and buoy observations.
A slight smoothing was applied to the track. The slight diminution in
the winds at 02/0600 and 1800 UTC is due to the lack of a report of
gale-force winds at those times.

Note: Tracking information from 15/0600 UTC to the first NHC advisory at
17/0000 UTC was supplied by David Roth of HPC. David also reported
positions based on his analysis for 17/0000 and 17/0600 UTC which
differed slightly from the synoptic hour positions in the official
advisories, as noted above. David indicates that the winds and pressures
he reported are based solely on ship reports. The "weakening" in the
intensity after 16/0600 UTC is due to fewer ships roaming through the
cyclone's neighborhood. Also, at 17/0000 UTC, which was the time of
NHC's first advisory on TD-17, David's track reports a maximum wind of
45 kts, presumably based upon a ship report. All information presented
after the final NHC advisory was gleaned from the High Seas Warnings and
Forecasts issued by MPC. The first two positions likewise were obtained
from the High Seas Warnings and Forecasts in the section prepared by
TPC. It should be noted that the pre-Michael system was treated as a
gale in the High Seas Warnings with winds to 35 kts.

Note: Tracking information from 29/1200 UTC onward was obtained from the
High Seas Warnings and Forecasts issued by MPC. A minimal gale center
remained in the same general area where the track above ends for several
days--by 5 Nov it had drifted a bit to the east. I chose to end the
track since the system was never a tropical cyclone in the first place,
and since it basically sat over the same spot for the better part of a
week without any significant change in intensity. Michael Pitt, a
Weather Technician with the U. S. Navy, also sent me a track which
contains some satellite classifications from SAB. ST numbers (from
the Hebert/Poteat satellite classification scheme for subtropical
cyclones) reached ST2.5: 35-40 kts on 26 Oct, and later reached the top
of the scale at ST3.5: 55-65 kts on 28 Oct. (Thanks to Michael and David
for the information they sent me.)

from the Central Pacific Hurricane Center, Honolulu, Hawaii,

NORTHWEST PACIFIC (NWP) - North Pacific Ocean West of Longitude 180
NOTE: The tracking information for Northwest Pacific Basin tropical
cyclones is based primarily upon operational warnings from the
Joint Typhoon Warning Center of the U.S. Air Force and Navy at
Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Comparisons were made with track coordinates
given in advisories from the meteorological services of Japan
(JMA) and the Philippines (PAGASA). In general, whenever the
center position differed by more than 40-50 nm from JTWC's, an
entry was made in the Remarks column.
The 1-min avg MSW were taken from the JTWC advisories while the
10-min avg MSW were obtained from PAGASA's advisories if the
storm were in PAGASA's area of responsibility; otherwise, they
were gleaned from JMA's advisories or high seas forecasts. In
a few cases the 10-min MSW given by PAGASA and JMA did not agree;
in those cases I reported the higher value. The estimates of
central pressure were obtained from JMA's advisories.
Michael V. Padua, owner of the Typhoon 2000 webpage sent me the
PAGASA and JMA tracks for these systems--a special thanks to
Michael for his assistance.
A track is included for one system for which no warnings were
issued by any official agency. This track was supplied by
Dr. Mark Lander of the University of Guam, and I have allotted
the Greek letter "Xi" to identify this system. A special thanks
to Mark for sending me the information.

Note: JMA never upgraded Yagi to a typhoon. PAGASA, however, did upgrade
the storm to a minimal typhoon at 24/0600 UTC. The final PAGASA warning
was issued at 25/0000 UTC, so the drop in the maximum 10-min avg wind
from 65 to 60 kts is due, at least in part, to my reverting back to JMA's
bulletins as the source for this parameter.
