Hurricane Zeta is currently a fast-moving Category 1 hurricane over southwestern Alabama that recently became the strongest hurricane to make landfall in the continental U.S. this late in the season in over 100 years after striking the Yucatán Peninsula two days prior. The twenty-seventh named storm and eleventh hurricane of the exceptionally active 2020 Atlantic hurricane season, Zeta formed from a broad area of low pressure that formed in the western Caribbean Sea on October 19. After battling wind shear, the quasi-stationary low organized into Tropical Depression Twenty-Eight on October 24. The system strengthened into Tropical Storm Zeta early on October 25 before becoming a hurricane the next day as it began to move orthwestward. Hurricane Zeta made landfall in the Yucatán Peninsula late on October 26 and weakened while inland to a tropical storm, before moving off the northern coast of the peninsula on October 27. After weakening due to dry air, Zeta reorganized and became a hurricane again, and eventually a Category 2 hurricane, as it turned northeastward approaching the U.S. Gulf Coast on October 28. It continued to strengthen until it reached its peak intensity of 110 mph (175 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 970 mbar (28.64 inHg) as it made landfall in Cocodrie, Louisiana that evening. It weakened gradually as it accelerated northeastward.

Numerous tropical cyclone watches and warnings were issued in areas that had already dealt with other tropical cyclones throughout the season, including Hurricane Delta, which took a near identical track three weeks prior. States of emergencies were issued in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. Heavy rain in Jamaica led to a landslide that killed a man and his daughter when it hit their family home on October 24. Strong winds and storm surge knocked down trees branches onto flooded streets in Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo near where Zeta made landfall in Mexico. Heavy rain, storm surge, strong winds, and tornadoes also pummeled the Southeastern United States and one person was killed in New Orleans due to electrocution from downed power lines.

At 00:00 UTC on October 15, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) began to monitor the southern Caribbean Sea for the possible development of a broad area of low pressure over the region.[1] By 18:00 UTC on October 19, a trough of low pressure had formed in the western Caribbean, but unfavorable upper-level winds hindered further development.[2] An assessment of conditions on October 20 led the NHC to conclude by 18:00 UTC that the system had no chance of development.[3] Three days later, however, new satellite images and radar data showed that the system, then located just west of Grand Cayman Island, was gradually becoming better defined.[4] By 21:00 UTC on October 24, the system had organized enough to be designated as Tropical Depression Twenty-Eight.[5] At 06:00 UTC the following morning, the depression strengthened into Tropical Storm Zeta,[6] becoming the earliest 27th Atlantic tropical or subtropical storm on record, surpassing the old mark of November 29 which was set by 2005's Hurricane Epsilon.[4] After remaining nearly stationary for over a day, the storm began to move northwestward towards the Yucatán Peninsula. Zeta soon began to rapidly intensify, reaching just below hurricane strength before wind shear again disrupted its convective organization.[7] However, this turned out to be short-lived as new burst of convection allowed Zeta to become a hurricane at 19:10 UTC on October 26.[8] It reached its initial peak intensity as it made landfall north of Tulum, Mexico, at 04:00 UTC on October 27 with winds of 80 mph and a 977 mbar pressure,[9] It initially remained well organized, although it weakened to a tropical storm as it continued over the Yucatán Peninsula.[10] Zeta moved offshore of the northern coast of the peninsula by 15:00 UTC and continued moving northwestward.[11]

Dry air wrapped around the northern half of Zeta's circulation, leaving the center exposed despite having a large amount of outflow surrounding it.[12] The storm bottomed out 65 mph and 990 mb at 00:00 UTC on October 28; however, large bursts of convection were already reforming over the center and a ragged eye quickly formed.[13][14] At 06:00 UTC, Zeta became a hurricane again as it began another rapid intensification phase.[15] It then began to accelerate, turning towards the northeast because of a vigorous upper-level low over West Texas.[16] It became a Category 2 hurricane at 18:00 UTC.[17] It continued to strengthen until it reached its peak intensity of 110 mph (175 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 970 mbar (28.64 inHg) as it made landfall in Cocodrie, Louisiana at 21:00 UTC.[18] The storm began to gradually weaken as it moved directly over New Orleans and accelerated northeastward.[19] It weakened to Category 1 hurricane at 01:00 UTC on October 29, although it remained well-organized on satellite imagery.[20][21]

Current storm information

As of 4:00 p.m. CDT (21:00 UTC) October 28, Hurricane Zeta is located within 20 nautical miles of 29°12′N 90°36′W / 29.2°N 90.6°W / 29.2; -90.6 (Zeta), about 65 miles (100 km) south-southwest of New Orleans, Louisiana. Maximum sustained winds are 95 knots (110 mph; 175 km/h), with gusts to 115 knots (130 mph; 215 km/h). The minimum barometric pressure is 970 mbar (28.64 inHg), and the system is moving north-northeast at 21 knots (24 mph; 39 km/h). Hurricane-force winds extend outward up to 35 miles (55 km) from the center, and tropical-storm-force winds extend outward up to 150 miles (240 km) from the center.

Watches and warnings

Template:HurricaneWarningsTable

Preparations

Zeta was the third tropical cyclone of October 2020 to threaten Western Cuba and the Yucatan Peninsula.

Cayman Islands and Jamaica

Flash flood warnings were issued in parts of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, where a small craft warning was also issued in the latter.[22][23]

Cuba

Upon formation, a Tropical Storm Watch was issued for the province of Pinar del Río.[24]

Mexico

In Quintana Roo, people were still recovering from Hurricane Delta, which hit the region a little more than a week prior. The state government set up several shelters for residents and tourists, while transport was suspended.[25]

United States

Hurricane watches were issued for eastern and central coastal Louisiana and coastal Mississippi. A tropical storm watch was also issued for areas east of Intracoastal City to Morgan City, Louisiana as well as coastal Alabama. Storm surge watches were issued for the entire area as well. The western part of watches and warnings were trimmed as the storm approached and the forecast track became better established.[26]

Louisiana

On October 26, Louisiana Governor John Bel Edwards issued a state of emergency for the entire state.[27] The town of Grand Isle issued a mandatory evacuation on October 27 as a voluntary evacuation was ordered for Jean Lafitte that same day.[28] Tulane University moved classes to virtual learning on October 28, while also closing health centers on campus.[29] Cleco employed more than 200 new workers to help restore power in the aftermath of Zeta.[30] Several national park units were shut down to weather the storm.[31]

Mississippi

Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves declared a state of emergency ahead of Zeta on October 28.[32] This was preceded by Hattiesburg and Forrest county's emergency declarations which were issued on October 27.[33] Schools in Pascagoula, Gautier, Biloxi, and Long Beach were closed on October 28 and 29 although schools in Pascagoula and Gautier only had early release times on October 28.[34]

Alabama

On October 27, Alabama Governor Kay Ivey issued a state of emergency.[35] Baldwin EMC stocked on supplies and put extra crews on standby ahead of Zeta to help restore power in parts of the state.[36]

Impact

Cayman Islands and Jamaica

A man and his daughter were killed in Jamaica after a landslide hit the family's home on October 24. The landslide was due to heavy rain likely from the precursor to Zeta.[37]

Mexico

Tree branches were littered across flooded streets in Playa del Carmen, Quintana Roo, near where Zeta made landfall.[38] However, Quintana Roo Governor Carlos Joaquin stated on Twitter that no major damage or casualties had been reported in the state. He also allowed airports and business to re-open just hours after landfall, but forced beaches to remain close until surf calmed.[39]

United States

Hurricane Zeta making landfall in Cocodrie, Louisiana, on October 28.

Zeta's landfall in Louisiana tied the record set in 1985 for the most U.S. hurricanes to make landfall at six.[40] It also broke 2002's record for the highest number of storms with a landfall in Louisiana; the four others were Tropical Storm Cristobal, and Hurricanes Marco, Laura, and Delta.[41] It was also the eleventh named storm to strike the United States in 2020, expanding on the record it had already broken with the landfall of Delta. A number of tornado warnings were issued in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida.[42][43]

Louisiana

Sustained tropical storm force winds began spreading onshore in southeastern coast of Louisiana around 18:00 UTC on October 28.[44] A sustained wind of 45 mph (72 km/h) was reported at Caillou Bay.[45] Just after a landfall, a personal weather station at Golden Meadow reported winds of 83 mph with a gust to 105 mph while another unofficial weather station nearby reported sustained winds of 94 mph (151 km/h) and a gust to 110 mph (177 km/h).[44][46] Additionally, a wind gust to 52 mph (84 km/h) was reported at Houma and a wind gust to 53 mph (85 km/h) was reported at New Orleans Lakefront Airport.[46] A WeatherFlow station in Harahan reported sustained winds of 56 mph (90 km/h) and a gust to 75 mph (120 km/h) while an elevated station at Bayou Bienvenue south-southeast of New Orleans reported sustained winds of 88 mph (142 km/h) and a gust to 112 mph (180 km/h).[47] Shell Beach reported sustained winds of 81 mph (130 km/h) with a gust to 101 mph (163 km/h).[19]

A gas station was damaged in Grand Isle and a tree fell on a home in Chauvin.[44][48] Numerous utility lines were downed in Houma and storm surge flooded LA 1 in Golden Meadow while also depositing a boat on it.[48] The eye of Zeta moved directly over New Orleans, where winds gusted to 94 mph, a large tree was snapped in Bayou St. John, and a tree was blown down a car in the Garden District.[49] The airport reported a pressure of 973 mb as the eye moved overhead.[19] One person was hospitalized after a roof collapsed on a building in the city.[50] One person was also killed due to electrocution from downed power lines.[51]

Mississippi

Early on October 28, a likely tornado damaged trees and power lines in Northern Harrison County.[52] Another tornado was photographed that evening doing damage in Brooksville.[53] A National Ocean Service station at Waveland reported sustained winds of 80 mph (129 km/h) and a wind gust of 104 mph (167 km/h) as well as 8.16 feet (2.49 m) of storm surge.[54][55] Several stations in the vicinity of Gulfport and Biloxi reported winds gusts of 75-100 mph (120-160 km/h).[55]

Alabama

Strong winds pummeled Mobile, which wad still recovering from Hurricane Sally from the month prior. The Mobile Regional Airport reported sustained winds of 48 mph (78 km/h) and a wind gust of 91 mph (146 km/h).[56] An observation at the USS Alabama reported sustained winds of 64 mph (103 km/h) while an observation at the Buccaneer Yacht Club reported a wind gust of 60 mph (97 km/h).[57] An observation in Evergreen reported sustained winds of 41 mph (66 km/h) and a wind gust of 68 mph (109 km/h) and a minimum pressure of 988 mb was reported at the Demopolis Municipal Airport as Zeta passed nearby. A National Ocean Service station at the Bayou La Batre Bridge reported 6.89 feet (2.10 m) of storm surge as well.[58]
