A distinct center of circulation consolidated in an area of thunderstorms southwest of Mexico on Tuesday morning and the National Hurricane Center designated the system as Tropical Storm Rosa.\u00a0 An inner rainband wrapped tightly around the center.\u00a0 Several other bands of showers and thunderstorms were revolving around the core of Tropical Storm Rosa.\u00a0 The circulation was symmetrical and rainbands were occurring in all parts of the tropical storm.\u00a0 Storms near the core began to generate upper level divergence which was pumping mass away from Rosa.<\/p>\n
Tropical Storm Rosa will move through an environment favorable for intensification during the next several days.\u00a0 Rosa will move over water where the Sea Surface Temperature is near 29\u00b0C.\u00a0 It will move through a region where the upper level winds are weak and there will be little vertical wind shear.\u00a0 Tropical Storm Rosa could intensify into a hurricane by later on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Tropical Storm Rosa will move southwest of a middle level ridge over northern Mexico.\u00a0 The ridge will steer Rosa in a general west-northwesterly direction during the next several days.\u00a0 On its anticipated track Tropical Storm Rosa will move southwest of Baja California later this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
