May go sub-900 at this rate! :eek:

18z bottomed out at 907 mbar, which is its strongest run so far and the first below 910 mbar. I haven’t seen the GFS this consistently aggressive since Hagibis and Kammuri, although only one lived up to the hype, and the other struggled its entire life. The GFS’s nuclear mode model solutions won’t get any more possible until the time frame closes in and other models also go berserk (the Euro went sub-900 for Hagibis, and Kammuri too).

I think we'll see an invest soon. The models do agree that the disturbance will start to come together within the next 72-96 hours.

Will be interesting if GFS's forecast holds. Ouch that would be horrible for the Marianas.

Based on a favorable large-scale environment with the enhanced phase of the MJO crossing the West Pacific and support from model guidance, a high confidence or TC development exists over the Coral Sea during week-1. An elevated chance of TC development also is forecast across the West Pacific. Due to uncertainty on timing, a moderate confidence area covers weeks 1 and 2.

GFS very inconsistent on track. One run misses the Marianas next thing you know it makes a beeline as of latest update.

18z GFS continues to have a much deeper vort within the next 72 hours compared to the Euro and CMC. But it's much weaker compared to its previous runs. Still eventually makes it a STY. The GFS solution allows the system to be briefly caught by a break in the ridge. Because the models are in excellent agreement that the disturbance will be quite large, it seems that any NNW/N/NNE movement past 72 hours will give the future disturbance a much better chance and time to develop.

The Euro and CMC continue to show the future disturbance taking a while to get itself going, drifting it west and not feeling any weakness and then runs out of time to rapidly deepen since it runs into land.

(Also want to mention that at the end of the run, it tries to spin off another system, if that would be named as #3, it would be Choi-wan)

Develops another system to the north of Choi-wan.

Latest 06Z GFS has gone wacky like it is trying to cave in to the Euro solution, but since the 00Z its solution has started to look off.

I've noticed some weirdness on the 0z Run, it looked like it was influenced by another system to it's east before bottoming out at 911 MB . . .

6z GFS is closer to the Euro model in their 0z run, lowest pressure on the 6z GFS is around 923 MB, but I don't know about the 0z run on the Euro model though . . .

A positive MJO passing thru the region
will enhance the formation of a low to mid-level circulation along
the near-equatorial trough. However, there is a lot of tropical
activity currently in the Southern Hemisphere near 10S from 90E
eastward to 160E. Any tropical/monsoonal disturbance that formed
north of the Equator will be competing for energy with the Southern
Hemispheric systems. This could limit the development potential of
such disturbance east of Yap. For now, kept a gradual wetting trend
for both Koror and Yap starting Sunday, despite the continuous
aggressive output by the GFS model. This situation will continue to
be monitored closely by WFO Guam.

12z run peaks at 917 mbar in fantasy range, but compared to the 06z run, the system begins coalescing much earlier and is at 998 mbar in 126 hrs. We should start seeing a big area of spin in a few days.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

18z GFS caves to its daddy, the Euro.

It is considerably stronger than the Euro though.

It is considerably stronger than the Euro though.

I’m assuming that a stronger storm will go a little more north even with a more horizontal, Euro-like track.

This run is also the fastest developing run so far. The disturbance could be classified as a TD prior to the 120 hour mark.

Latest GFS run shows a scenario quite similar to Parma and Melor of 09.
