Post-Tropical Cyclone Lala Discussion Number 64
NWS Central Pacific Hurricane Center Honolulu HI CP012026
Issued by NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL
1100 PM HST Thu Aug 27 2026

Although Lala is maintaining patches of thunderstorms southeast of
the center, the convective pattern has been disorganized for
nearly a day. Based on the lack of organized deep convection and
because Lala is over cool waters, it is now considered a
post-tropical cyclone. The initial intensity of the system is
estimated to be around 35 kt.

The post-tropical cyclone continues to move slowly to the
north-northwest. A gradual turn to the west-northwest or northwest
is forecast as a low- to mid-level ridge becomes better established
to the north of the system. The cyclone is also expected to weaken,
and ultimately dissipate within a couple of days.

Lala had lasted about 15 days as a tropical cyclone traveling more
than a couple of thousand miles during that time. This is last
advisory on this system by the National Hurricane Center.
