SUMMARY OF 200 AM PDT...0900 UTC...INFORMATION ---------------------------------------------- LOCATION...13.6N 129.4W ABOUT 1430 MI...2300 KM WSW OF THE SOUTHERN TIP OF BAJA CALIFORNIA MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS...30 MPH...45 KM/H PRESENT MOVEMENT...ESE OR 110 DEGREES AT 9 MPH...15 KM/H MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE...1006 MB...29.71 INCHES WATCHES AND WARNINGS -------------------- There are no coastal watches or warnings in effect. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 200 AM PDT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Nineteen-E was located near latitude 13.6 North, longitude 129.4 West. The depression is moving toward the east-southeast near 9 mph (15 km/h) and this motion is expected to continue over the next couple of days. Maximum sustained winds are near 30 mph (45 km/h) with higher gusts. Little change in strength is forecast during the next couple of days, and this system is expected to degenerate into a post-tropical cyclone by Thursday. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1006 mb (29.71 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- None NEXT ADVISORY ------------- Next complete advisory at 800 AM PDT. $$ Forecaster Pierce/Roberts

000 WTPZ44 KNHC 300837 TCDEP4 Tropical Depression Nineteen-E Discussion Number 4 NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP192026 200 AM PDT Wed Sep 30 2026 Apart from some intermittent bursts of deep convection north and east of the center, Tropical Depression Nineteen-E is all but devoid of convection. Visible satellite imagery continues to depict a closed circulation, albeit slightly elongated. A 0531 UTC METOP-C scatterometer pass confirmed an elongated circulation, with peak winds of around 20 kt surrounding the center. The latest TAFB Dvorak fix was T2.0/30 kt. Based on a blend of these data, the initial intensity is held at 25 kt. The initial motion has shifted slightly east-southeastward, now at 110/08 kt. The depression is expected to maintain a generally east-southeastward path, with slight wobbles in its track, as it is steered by a northward-displaced monsoon trough. The updated NHC track forecast is largely unchanged from the previous advisory, roughly in between the simple (TVCN) and corrected consensus (HCCA) aids. Nineteen-E is forecast to remain in a relatively hostile environment marked by moderate vertical wind shear within a moisture-starved environment. The depression is anticipated to degenerate into a post-tropical remnant low within 36 h, but given how little convection has persisted over the last several hours, it is very possible that this transition could occur sooner. The biggest source of uncertainty in the forecast is the degree to which diurnally enhanced convection will occur, if at all. The latest intensity forecast keeps the depression's strength steady through the forecast period, following the middle of the model envelope, with dissipation still expected to occur within 60 h.
