964WTPA41 PHFO 012048TCDCP1Post-Tropical Cyclone Hone Discussion Number 42NWS Central Pacific Hurricane Center Honolulu HI CP0120241100 AM HST Sun Sep 01 2024Hone is now classified as a post-tropical cyclone, so this is thefinal advisory. Geostationary satellite imagery reveals that thelow-level circulation center of Hone has become indistinguishablethis morning as it was absorbed into large band of convectionsurrounding a deep cutoff low. The center of this merged system,which now reflects the location of the dominant extratropical cutofflow, jumped westward considerably as the circulation of Hone wasabsorbed. An ASCAT pass from yesterday evening showed a broad areaof gale force winds within a large convective band, and this wasincorporated into this final forecast for the merged extratropicallow.The post-tropical low of former Hone will continue to move westwardand lose forward motion over the next 12 hours, eventually stallingtonight as it becomes aligned with the upper-level low. The deeplow will then drift northward near the International Date Line ondays 2 through 4 and likely dissipate by day 5. The post-tropicallow is expected to maintain gale force winds in the northernsemicircle for the next couple of days. If convection does reformover the center, there is a chance that post-tropical Hone couldregain tropical characteristics over the next 2 days or so. TheCentral Pacific Hurricane Center will closely monitor forredevelopment and the need to resume bulletins east of theInternational Date Line.Since Hone is now a post-tropical low and this is the finaladvisory from the Central Pacific Hurricane Center, the TropicalStorm Watch for Kure and Midway Atolls has been discontinued.However, these atolls could experience gale force winds during thenext couple of days. Additional information can be found in HighSeas forecasts issued by the National Weather Service in Honolulu,Hawaii under AWIPS header HFOHSFNP and WMO header FZPN20 PHFO. Ifthis system redevelops west of the International Date Line,bulletins would be issued by RSMC Tokyo, Japan.FORECAST POSITIONS AND MAX WINDSINIT 01/2100Z 26.3N 179.3E 35 KT 40 MPH...POST-TROPICAL 12H 02/0600Z 26.6N 178.8E 35 KT 40 MPH...POST-TROPICAL 24H 02/1800Z 27.1N 178.5E 35 KT 40 MPH...POST-TROPICAL 36H 03/0600Z 28.5N 179.2E 35 KT 40 MPH...POST-TROPICAL 48H 03/1800Z 29.8N 179.9E 30 KT 35 MPH...POST-TROPICAL 60H 04/0600Z 31.1N 179.0E 25 KT 30 MPH...POST-TROPICAL 72H 04/1800Z 32.1N 177.8E 25 KT 30 MPH...POST-TROPICAL 96H 05/1800Z 33.2N 176.1E 20 KT 25 MPH...DISSIPATED$$Forecaster Wroe
