200 PM EDT Mon Sep 15 2025

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:

Central Tropical Atlantic (AL92):
A broad area of low pressure has formed roughly midway between the
Windward Islands and the coast of west Africa. This system has
become better organized since yesterday and is expected to move
through a favorable environment for further development. A
tropical depression or tropical storm is likely to form by the
middle to latter part of this week as the system moves
west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph over the central tropical
Atlantic.
* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...50 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...high...90 percent.

For the eastern and central North Pacific east of 180 longitude:

Active Systems:
The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical
Storm Mario, located a few hundred miles southwest of the
southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula.

Off the Coast of Southwestern Mexico:
An elongated trough of low pressure located several hundred miles
off the coast of southern Mexico is producing disorganized showers
and thunderstorms. Environmental conditions appear conducive for
gradual development of this system, and a tropical depression is
likely to form by the middle to latter part of this week as it
moves west-northwestward at 10 to 15 mph over the central east
Pacific.
*Formation chance through 48 hours...low...30 percent.
*Formation chance through 7 days...high...70 percent.

Tropical Storm Mario Forecast Discussion Number 12

Tropical Storm Mario Discussion Number  12
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       EP132025
Issued by the NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD
800 AM MST Mon Sep 15 2025

Satellite images show that Mario has changed little since the 
previous advisory, though recently the deep convection has been 
bursting near the center.  Subjective Dvorak intensity estimates 
remain near 45 kt, with objective estimates from UW-CIMSS generally 
a little higher.  Thus, the current intensity will remain 50 kt for 
this advisory. 

Mario is moving west-northwestward, or 300 degrees, at 10 kt.  A
gradual turn toward the northwest is expected during the next couple
of days while the cyclone moves between a mid-level ridge over 
northern Mexico and a mid-level low to its northwest.  The biggest 
question is what happens to the remnants of Mario in a few days, 
with the models in poor agreement on whether it turns more to the 
north, like the GFS, or towards the west, like the HWRF or GDMI.  
For now, the official forecast will stay closer to the westernmost 
model cluster and assume the weak cyclone doesn't feel stronger 
mid-level southerly flow.  The new forecast is a touch to the 
right of the previous one.  

The storm has a limited window for any strengthening within light 
shear conditions and warm waters. However, there are plenty of 
stable stratocumulus clouds on satellite just northwest of the 
circulation, suggesting it doesn't have much time left for 
intensification.  By Tuesday, Mario should begin to weaken as it 
crosses over much cooler waters with higher shear.  Mario should 
lose all deep convection after 36h and become a remnant low by 48h. 
The new NHC forecast prediction is slightly decreased from the last 
one and ends up pretty close to the model consensus.
