HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
———————-
Key messages for Beta can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT2 and WMO header WTNT42 KNHC.

STORM SURGE: The combination of a dangerous storm surge and the
tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by
rising waters moving inland from the shoreline. The water could
reach the following heights above ground somewhere in the indicated
areas if the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide…

Sargent, TX to Sabine Pass including Galveston Bay…2-4 ft
Sabine Pass to Ocean Springs, MS including Sabine Lake, Calcasieu
Lake, Vermilion Bay, Lake Borgne, Lake Pontchartrain, and Lake
Maurepas…1-3 ft
Baffin Bay, TX to Sargent, TX including Copano Bay, Aransas Bay, San
Antonio Bay, Matagorda Bay, Corpus Christi Bay and Baffin Bay… 1-3
ft
Mouth of the Rio Grande to Baffin Bay, TX…1-2 ft

The deepest water will occur along the immediate coast in areas of
onshore winds, where the surge will be accompanied by large and
dangerous waves. Surge-related flooding depends on the relative
timing of the surge and the tidal cycle, and can vary greatly over
short distances. For information specific to your area, please see
products issued by your local National Weather Service forecast
office.

WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected to continue within
portions of the tropical storm warning area today.

RAINFALL: For the middle and upper Texas coast, additional rainfall
of 6 to 12 inches with isolated storm totals up to 20 inches is
expected. Significant flash and urban flooding is occurring and will
continue today. Minor river flooding is likely.

Rainfall totals of 3 to 5 inches are expected northward into the
ArkLaTex region and east into the Lower Mississippi Valley through
the end of the week. Flash and urban flooding is possible, as well
as isolated minor river flooding.

TORNADOES: A tornado or two could occur today near the upper Texas
and southwestern Louisiana coasts.

SURF: Swells generated by a combination of Beta and a cold front
over the northern Gulf of Mexico will continue along the coasts of
Louisiana and Texas during the next couple of days. These swells
are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current
conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.

…TROPICAL WAVES…

A tropical wave is located along 20W S of 17N, moving W at 10 to
15 kt. No significant convection is occurring with this wave.

A weak tropical wave extends along 32W S of 18N, moving W at 10 to
15 kt. No significant convection is occurring with this wave.

…MONSOON TROUGH/ITCZ…

The monsoon trough extends from the coast of W Africa near 12N16W
to 08N28W. The ITCZ is from 06N33W to 05N39W. No significant
convection is occurring along these features.

GULF OF MEXICO…

Please see the Special Features section above for further details
on Tropical Storm Beta inland over Texas.

As of 22/0900 UTC. A cold front has now stalled over the eastern
and central Gulf from 22N81W to 29N92W. Scattered moderate
convection is near the front. North of the front over the NE Gulf,
strong NE winds prevail. These winds will gradually decrease
to fresh later today and tonight. Gentle winds prevail over the
remainder of the Gulf of Mexico south of the front. In the far
western Gulf, gentle winds prevail south of 25.5N.

After weakening to a tropical depression later today or tonight,
Beta will turn NE and track along the TX coast for the next
several days, eventually moving into Louisiana. Impacts from Beta
will remain confined to nearshore coastal waters of Texas and
Louisiana. A stationary front will remain stretched from the
central to southeast Gulf through Thu. Low pressure may form along
this frontal boundary in the southeast Gulf later this week.

CARIBBEAN SEA…

Mainly fair weather conditions prevail across the basin under the
influence of mid level high pressure supporting dry air
subsidence. Showers and thunderstorms previously near Cuba have
dissipated. Scattered moderate convection S of 11N, along the
Panama and Colombia coasts, is associated with the east Pacific
monsoon trough. Gentle to moderate winds prevail.

Swell associated with Hurricane Teddy moving away in the north
Atlantic as well as generated by a cold front currently extending
along 22N W of 61W will impact much of the Atlantic passages
beginning Tue night and continuing through at least Thu night.
Mainly gentle to moderate trade winds will dominate the basin
through Thu night. Across the remainder of the Caribbean, gentle
to moderate trades will prevail.

ATLANTIC OCEAN…

A cold front extends from 31N61W to 22N77W. Scattered moderate
isolated strong convection is along the front. Strong NE winds
area located to the N and W of the front, including the Bahamas.
Ahead of the front, strong S winds are occurring N of 28N. A
weak 1010 mb low near 14N50W is along a NE-SW surface trough that
extends from 17N46W to 10N54W. Another surface trough is from
22N40W to 16N41W. A broad area of moderate, disorganized
convection resides in the vicinity of these features from 11N to
24N between 39N and 49W.

Swell generated by Hurricane Teddy, moving farther north of the
area toward Atlantic Canada, and a cold front that is slowing
over the southeastern waters will continue to impact the waters
through at least Thu night. In the wake of the front, high
pressure building into the Mid- Atlantic U.S. will bring fresh to
strong winds to areas N of the Bahamas and off the Florida coast
into tonight.

Galveston Bay, Sabine Lake, and Lake Calcasieu

A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for…
* Port Aransas Texas to Morgan City Louisiana

A Tropical Storm Watch is in effect for…
* Baffin Bay to Port Aransas Texas

A Storm Surge Warning means there is a danger of life-threatening
inundation, from rising water moving inland from the coastline,
during the next 36 hours in the indicated locations. For a depiction
of areas at risk, please see the National Weather Service Storm
Surge Watch/Warning Graphic, available at hurricanes.gov. This is
a life-threatening situation. Persons located within these areas
should take all necessary actions to protect life and property from
rising water and the potential for other dangerous conditions.
Promptly follow evacuation and other instructions from local
officials.

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, in this case within the next 36
hours.

For storm information specific to your area, including possible
inland watches and warnings, please monitor products issued by your
local National Weather Service forecast office.

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
———————-
At 700 PM CDT (0000 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Beta was
located by an Air Force Reserve reconnaissance aircraft and NOAA
Doppler weather radars near latitude 27.6 North, longitude 94.1
West. Beta is moving toward the west-northwest near 6 mph (9 km/h),
and this general motion is forecast to continue for the next day or
so. A decrease in forward speed and a sharp turn to the north and
northeast is expected Monday night and Tuesday. On the forecast
track, the center of Beta will continue to move toward the central
coast of Texas and will likely move inland by Monday night, and
remain close to the coast of southeastern Texas on Tuesday.

Maximum sustained winds are near 60 mph (95 km/h) with higher
gusts. Little change in strength is forecast before Beta reaches
the Texas coast Monday. Weakening is anticipated once Beta
moves inland.

Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 195 miles (315 km)
from the center.

The estimated minimum central pressure based on data from the
Hurricane Hunter aircraft is 996 mb (29.42 inches).

HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND

Key messages for Beta can be found in the Tropical Cyclone
Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT2 and WMO header WTNT42 KNHC.

STORM SURGE: The combination of a dangerous storm surge and the
tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by
rising waters moving inland from the shoreline. The water could
reach the following heights above ground somewhere in the indicated
areas if the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide…

San Luis Pass, TX to Sabine Pass, TX including Galveston Bay…3-5
ft
Port Aransas, TX to San Luis Pass, TX including Copano Bay, Aransas
Bay, San Antonio Bay, and Matagorda Bay…2-4 ft
Sabine Pass, TX to Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge, LA including Sabine
Lake and Calcasieu Lake…2-4 ft
Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge, LA to Ocean Springs, MS including
Vermilion Bay, Lake Borgne, Lake Pontchartrain, and Lake
Maurepas…1-3 ft
Baffin Bay, TX to Port Aransas, TX including Corpus Christi Bay and
Baffin Bay… 1-3 ft
Mouth of the Rio Grande to Baffin Bay, TX…1-2 ft

The deepest water will occur along the immediate coast in areas of
onshore winds, where the surge will be accompanied by large and
dangerous waves. Surge-related flooding depends on the relative
timing of the surge and the tidal cycle, and can vary greatly over
short distances. For information specific to your area, please see
products issued by your local National Weather Service forecast
office.

WIND: Tropical storm conditions are occurring in the tropical
storm warning area along the southwestern Louisiana coast and will
spread westward to the warning areas in Texas tonight through early
Monday. Tropical storm conditions are possible within the tropical
storm watch area along the south Texas coast on Monday.

RAINFALL: Through Thursday, Beta is expected to produce rainfall
accumulations of 6 to 12 inches with isolated totals of 15 inches
from the middle Texas coast to southern Louisiana. Rainfall totals
of 3 to 5 inches expected northward into the ArkLaTex region and
east into the Lower Mississippi Valley. Flash and urban flooding
is likely, as well as minor to isolated moderate river flooding.

TORNADOES: A tornado or two could occur Monday near the
middle-to-upper Texas coast or the southwestern Louisiana coast.

SURF: Swells are increasing and reaching the coast of Texas and
the Gulf Coast of Mexico, generated by a combination of Beta and a
cold front entering the northern Gulf of Mexico. These swells are
likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions.
Please consult products from your local weather office.
