Tropical Hurricane Nana

Up to 60 mph now. Wonder if there’s any chance it redevelops in the eastern Pacific after it crosses over Cnetral America?
 
Nana putting on a show before landfall those are some big mountains it will cross though if it does redevelop in the EPAC it would probably be a totally new system

...DATA FROM AN AIR FORCE HURRICANE HUNTER AIRCRAFT INDICATES NANA
HAS BECOME A HURRICANE...
...EXPECTED TO MAKE LANDFALL ALONG THE COAST OF BELIZE OVERNIGHT...

Tropical Storm Julio Discussion Number 1
NWS National Hurricane Center Miami FL EP152020
400 PM CDT Sat Sep 05 2020

The mid-level remnants of Atlantic Hurricane Nana have moved
westward and west-northwestward off the southwestern coast of Mexico
while producing intermittent convection during the last few days. A
well-defined low formed about a day ago and ASCAT data indicates
that it has been producing tropical-storm-force winds for the past
12 h or so. During the past few hours there has also been an
increase in deep convection near the center of the low, and the most
recent Dvorak classification from TAFB was T-2.5, indicating that
the system is sufficiently well-organized to be considered a
tropical cyclone. Since the low-level center of Nana dissipated
inland over Central Atlantic, the new tropical storm is named Julio,
the tenth of the northern East Pacific season. The TAFB Dvorak
classification and 15Z ASCAT data are the basis for the 35 kt
initial intensity. Since the ASCAT explicitly showed 35 kt winds and
that instrument typically under-samples the maximum winds, it is
possible this intensity is a little conservative.

Most of the dynamical models do not acknowledge the existence of
tiny Julio in their initial conditions. Only the ECMWF and its
ensemble show a small well-defined low and it therefore is the
primary basis for the NHC track forecast. In general, Julio should
continue west-northwestward at a slower forward speed for the next
couple of days, steered by a mid-level ridge to the northeast. Julio
is forecast to become a shallow remnant low in a few days and should
slow down to a crawl before it dissipates early next week. Since the
forecast is based largely on one modeling system rather than the
typical NHC consensus approach, confidence in the track forecast is
fairly low.

The tropical storm will be affected by strong easterly wind shear
for the next day or two and little or no further strengthening is
likely during that time. Although the shear could decrease by early
next week, Julio will reach a drier and more stable environment in a
couple of days. It is therefore forecast to become a remnant low
within 60 h and dissipate shortly thereafter. The NHC forecast is
based on a blend of the ECMWF and the statistical DSHP and LGEM
models since the HWRF and the GFS-dependent HMON models do not
appear to have a good handle on the initial state of the system.
