Tropical Storm Juliette moved southwest of Baja California on Tuesday.\u00a0 At 5:00 p.m. EDT on Tuesday the center of Tropical Storm Juliette was located at latitude 19.9\u00b0N and longitude 117.2\u00b0W which put the center about 515 miles (825 km) west-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California.\u00a0 Juliette was moving toward the northwest at 10 m.p.h. (16 km\/h).\u00a0 The maximum sustained wind speed was 65 m.p.h. (105 km\/h) and there were wind gusts to 80 m.p.h. (130 km\/h).\u00a0 The minimum surface pressure was 996 mb.<\/p>\n
Tropical Storm Juliette intensified on Tuesday as it moved over the Eastern North Pacific Ocean southwest of Baja California.\u00a0 More thunderstorms formed near the center of Juliette’s circulation.\u00a0 Thunderstorms were also occurring in bands in the southern half of Tropical Storm Juliette.\u00a0 Bands in the northern side of Juliette’s circulation consisted primarily of showers and lower clouds.\u00a0 Storms near the center of Juliette generated upper level divergence that pumped mass away to the south and west of the tropical storm.<\/p>\n
The circulation around Tropical Storm Juliette was small.\u00a0 Winds to tropical storm force extended out 70 miles (110 km) from the center of Juliette’s circulation.<\/p>\n
Tropical Storm Juliette will move through an environment unfavorable for intensification during the next 24 hours.\u00a0 Juliette will move over water where the Sea Surface Temperatures are near 24\u00b0C.\u00a0 It will move under the southeastern part of an upper level ridge over the Eastern North Pacific Ocean.\u00a0 The upper level ridge will produce northeasterly winds that will blow toward the top of Juliette’s circulation.\u00a0 Those winds will cause moderate vertical wind shear.\u00a0 The combination of cooler Sea Surface Temperatures and moderate vertical wind shear will cause Tropical Storm Juliette to weaken during the next 24 hours.<\/p>\n
Tropical Storm Juliette will move around the western end of a high pressure system over northwestern Mexico.\u00a0 The high pressure system will steer Juliette toward the northwest during the next 24 hours.\u00a0 On its anticipated track, Tropical Storm Juliette will remain far to the west of Baja California.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
