Tropical Storm Beta

Tropical Depression Beta Discussion Number 17

Nws Tpc/national Hurricane Center Miami Fl

10 Pm Est Sun Oct 30 2005

 

Beta Continues To Move Westward Over Land...and The Surface

Circulation Is Dissipating Over The Elevated Terrain Of Nicaragua.

With High Pressure To Its North And Northwest...the Remnant Mid- To

Lower Tropospheric Vorticity Should Move Westward Or

West-southwestward And Enter The Eastern North Pacific Basin

Tomorrow. There Is Some Possibility Of Regeneration Over That

Basin During The Next Couple Of Days.

 

Even Though Beta Is Dissipating...there Is Still A Threat Of

Additional Heavy Rains Over Nicaragua...honduras...and El Salvador

For The Next Day Or So...and These Rains Have The Potential To

Cause Life-threatening Flash Floods And Mud Slides.

 

This Is The Last Advisory On Beta. Should The System Regenerate

Over The East Pacific...it Would Be Assigned A New Number And/or

Name.

Nws Tpc/national Hurricane Center Miami Fl

530 Am Est Mon Oct 31 2005

 

For The North Atlantic...caribbean Sea And The Gulf Of Mexico...

 

The Remnants Of Tropical Depression Beta Are Producing Locally Heavy

Rains Over Portions Of Nicaragua...honduras...and El Salvador.

These Rains Could Produce Life Threatening Flash Floods And Mud

Slides.

 

Cloudiness And Showers Associated With A Tropical Wave Extend From

The Leeward Islands Eastward Into The Atlantic For A Few Hundred

Miles. This System Remains Disorganized And Upper-level Winds Are

Not Favorable For Significant Development.

 

Elsewhere...tropical Storm Formation Is Not Expected Through

Tuesday.
