Tropical Storm Nadine 2024

Tropical Storm Nadine

Live tracking map, satellite images and forecasts of Tropical Storm Nadine 2024 near the Yucatán Peninsula. Current wind speed 40mph.

Localized areas of flash flooding are possible along the track of Nadine across southern Mexico, northern Guatemala, and northern Belize.

Tropical storm conditions are expected along portions of the coasts of Belize and the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico within the warning area through this afternoon (19 October).

ASCAT data from 03:09 UTC showed that the disturbance over the northwestern Caribbean Sea had developed a closed circulation and well-defined center, with a swath of 30–35 knot winds extending north off the coast of the Yucatán Peninsula. Based on that information, the system was designated as Tropical Storm Nadine in the 1 AM CDT (06:00 UTC) intermediate advisory. Satellite data and radar images from Belize indicate that Nadine's structure is broad but is gradually becoming better organized, and the latest Dvorak estimates from TAFB and SAB are T2.5/35 knots. Winds to tropical storm force have been measured along the coast as far north as Cancún.

The scatterometer data showed that Nadine formed a little farther south than where the disturbance was previously estimated, but the initial motion is still westward (270 degrees) at 10 mph (8 knots). Nadine should begin moving faster toward the west through the day while being steered by a mid-level ridge over the Gulf of Mexico. There is good agreement among the track models, and the NHC track forecast lies between the TVCA and HCCA consensus aids. On this track, Nadine's center should make landfall along the Belize coast sometime late morning or midday and then continue westward across northern Guatemala and southeastern Mexico late this afternoon into tonight.

Some slight strengthening is possible this morning before Nadine reaches the coast due to low atmospheric wind shear and ocean temperatures around 29°C. Weakening is forecast after Nadine moves inland, and the storm should fall below tropical storm strength later this afternoon. Nadine is likely to dissipate over southeastern Mexico by early Sunday.
