For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:
Active Systems: The National Hurricane Center is issuing advisories on Tropical Storm Jerry, located just southeast of the northern Leeward Islands.
North Atlantic (AL96): A gale-force non-tropical area of low pressure located about 500 miles northwest of the Azores is producing some shower activity near its center. Some subtropical or tropical development of this system is possible over the next day or so before it moves over even cooler waters and into a stronger shear environment. For more information on this system, including gale warnings, see High Seas Forecasts issued by the National Weather Service and Meteo France. * Formation chance through 48 hours...low...10 percent. * Formation chance through 7 days...low...10 percent.

DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK
----------------------
At 500 PM AST (2100 UTC), the center of Tropical Storm Jerry was
located near latitude 17.3 North, longitude 60.6 West. Jerry is
moving toward the west-northwest near 18 mph (30 km/h). A turn
toward the northwest is expected by the evening, followed by a
slightly slower northward motion on Friday and Saturday. On the
forecast track, the center of Jerry is expected to pass near the
northern Leeward Islands this evening and tonight.
Maximum sustained winds remain near 65 mph (100 km/h) with higher
gusts. Little change in strength is expected through tomorrow,
but slow strengthening is possible over the weekend.
Tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 175 miles (280 km),
mainly east of the center.
The estimated minimum central pressure is 1001 mb (29.56 inches).
HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND
----------------------
Key messages for Tropical Storm Jerry can be found in the Tropical
Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT5 and WMO header
WTNT45 KNHC.
WIND: Tropical storm conditions are expected in the tropical storm
warning area and are possible in the watch area tonight and
Friday morning.
RAINFALL: Through Friday, 4 to 6 inches of rain are expected across
the island of Barbuda. Elsewhere across the Leeward and Virgin
Islands, 2 to 4 inches of rain are expected. This rainfall brings a
risk of flash flooding, especially in urban areas and in steep
terrain. For portions of Puerto Rico, moisture associated with Jerry
combined with local orographic effects may result in up to 2 to 4
inches of rain, with isolated 6 inches possible.
For a complete depiction of forecast rainfall and flash flooding
associated with Jerry, please see the National Weather Service storm
total rainfall graphic, available at
hurricanes.gov/graphics_at5.shtml?rainqpf
SURF: Swells generated by Jerry are affecting the Leeward Islands,
Windward Islands, the Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. These swells
are expected to spread toward the rest of the Greater Antilles over
the next couple of days, are likely to cause life-threatening surf
and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local
weather office.
A depiction of rip current risk for the United States, including
Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, can be found at:

Tropical Storm Jerry Forecast Discussion Number 10
Issued at 500 PM AST Thu Oct 09 2025 000
WTNT45 KNHC 092036
TCDAT5
Tropical Storm Jerry Discussion Number 10
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL102025
500 PM AST Thu Oct 09 2025
Satellite images, aircraft observations, and ASCAT data indicate
that Jerry is a poorly organized and strongly sheared tropical
storm. The low-level center is now fully exposed and elongated,
with the main area of deep convection located on the system's south
and southeast sides. The initial intensity is again held at 55 kt,
but that could be a little generous. The center of Jerry is less
than 100 miles from the northern Leeward Islands, which is often
close enough to experience strong winds. However, the ASCAT and
aircraft data showed that the strongest winds are confined to a
region east of the center. In fact, winds are quite light on the
west side.
Jerry has been moving erratically today, but smoothing through the
fixes suggest that the storm is gradually turning to the right. The
initial motion is now estimated to be 300/16 kt. This general
motion should continue through early Friday, taking the center of
the system near or over the northern Leeward Islands during that
time. However, as mentioned above, the strongest winds should pass
to the east of the islands due to Jerry's asymmetric structure. A
turn to the north is expected to occur by late tomorrow, and that
motion should continue through most of the weekend as the storm
moves in the flow on the western side of a subtropical ridge. Early
next week, a faster eastward or east-northeastward motion is
forecast in the mid-latitude westerlies. Jerry is expected to pass
east of Bermuda in a few days, and given its expected eastward
asymmetry, significant impacts appear unlikely there. No
significant changes were made to the previous track forecast, and
this prediction is in best agreement with the HCCA and Google
DeepMind ensemble mean.
Strengthening in the short term seems unlikely given Jerry's poor
initial structure. However, after the storm passes the northern
Leeward Islands, the vertical wind shear could decrease some while
Jerry remains over warm water and in a moist air mass. Therefore,
slow strengthening is predicted from late Friday through Sunday. The
opportunity for strengthening will likely end early next week when
the system moves into stronger shear and over cooler waters. The
NHC intensity forecast has been nudged downward due to a combination
of the storm's poor initial structure and latest guidance.
KEY MESSAGES:
1. Tropical storm conditions are expected in the warning area and
are possible in the watch area this evening through Friday morning.
2. Heavy rainfall will impact portions of the Leeward Islands,
British Virgin Islands, U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico through
Friday, which could result in flash flooding, particularly in urban
areas and in steep terrain.
