Tropical Storm Jerry Discussion Number 16
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL AL102025
500 AM AST Sat Oct 11 2025
Jerry has become slightly better organized this morning. Recent
satellite images and AMSR2 passive microwave data show that new deep
convection has developed closer to the estimated center position of
the storm, with some evidence of curved banding noted in the 89 GHz
channel. Based on these developments, the initial intensity is held
at 50 kt, which is consistent with the scatterometer data from last
night. The wind field remains asymmetric, with tropical-storm-force
winds confined to the eastern semicircle of the storm.
The estimated initial motion of Jerry is north (005 deg) at 14 kt.
