Tropical Storm Elida Discussion Number  12
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL       EP052026
800 AM PDT Fri Jul 17 2026

Recent satellite observations have shown that Elida's structure has 
not improved by a significant margin over the past several hours. 
Dry air is still entraining into the circulation, and the system 
remains asymmetric with most of the convection located over the 
eastern half of the circulation. Based on the available data, the 
intensity of Elida is held at 55 kt.  Tropical-storm-force 
winds extend well to the east and south of the center. 

Based on recent fixes, Elida's position has been shifted a bit 
to the north of the previous track with a initial motion estimated 
at 300/9 kt. A deep-layer trough remains entrenched off the west 
coast of the United States, which should cause Elida to turn 
northwestward and then north-northwestward by Sunday. The track 
guidance continues to shift a bit more to the east, thus the 
official NHC track forecast has again been nudged in that direction. 
The models do still have a wide spread of solutions at days 4 
and 5. 

Elida has a very limited time to strengthen over warm waters and 
in a low-shear environment. However, if the structure cannot improve 
quickly, then the chances of the cyclone becoming a hurricane will 
continue to decrease. The peak intensity has been brought down to 65 
kt with this advisory. This does keep the intensity forecast in-line 
with the bulk of the guidance. Weakening should being around 36 
hours due to Elida moving over cooler waters and into a region of 
increasing shear. Elida could lose organized deep convection and 
become post-tropical in 3 to 4 days.
