Tropical Depression Lisa Discussion Number  19
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       AL152022
400 AM CDT Fri Nov 04 2022

Radar and satellite data indicates that the center of Lisa is now 
over water in the Bay of Campeche.  Satellite imagery shows that 
the convection has increased over the past several hours, 
particularly in a band just northeast of the center.  The initial 
intensity is held at 25 kt based mainly on data from a Mexican buoy 
to the northeast of the center.

The initial motion is now 290/9.  A turn toward the northwest is 
expected later today as the cyclone moves around a low- to 
mid-level ridge.  After that, the models indicate the shallow 
vortex will likely stall and meander southeastward within the weak 
low-level environmental flow over the southwestern Gulf.  There is 
little change to either the track guidance or the track forecast 
since the last advisory.

Although the center of Lisa is now over water, the cyclone is 
experiencing 20-25 kt of southerly shear.  The upper-level winds 
should become even less favorable during the next 48-72 h, and the 
cyclone is also expected to entrain some dry air.  Due to the 
current strong convection, some strengthening is forecast during 
the next 12 h, and it is not impossible for Lisa to regain 
tropical-storm strength during that time.  Thereafter, the 
upper-level winds and dry air should cause the system to weaken, 
with Lisa forecast to degenerate to a remnant low pressure area 
by 48 h and dissipate completely by 72 h.

 
Key Messages:
 
1. Isolated flash flooding is possible across portions of 
southeastern Mexico.
