Nothing on the other sites yet but thats normal. Wonder how this one will fare. With the atlanta and EPAC heating up maybe its the WPAC's turn.

I could be wrong, but conditions look ridiculously favorable for this invest to continue to form, right now, don't you think? Low shear, and it's also right in the pocket to develop near Guam. Storms that form there actually have a snowball's chance of turning into something more significant - plenty of warm water and no land obstructions. We could see the first big typhoon of the season from this if it continues to develop. Since La Nina most of the TC formations have been shifted further to the West and they hit land and weaken pretty quickly. Might finally have one to watch.

Have a question. If this does progress into a storm, all other storms including Minduelle have got Westward, why should the track for this be WNW towards Okinawa?

Okinawa is directly north of this Invest. Remember Dianmu went north as well.

http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/tropic2/real-time/dlmmain.php?&basin=westpac&sat=wgms&prod=dlm1&zoom=&time

There is no strong steering flow so it could well go north, which is what some models are suggesting. The ridge is then forecast to build behind this system as push any storms which forms in a more WNW direction.

And this is from PAGASA:

At 2:00 p.m. today, a Shallow Low Pressure Area (SLPA) was estimated based on satellite and surface data at 540 km East of Visayas (12.0°N, 131.0°E) embedded along the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) affecting the country.

Morning vis more impressive for 97W:

Looks sad on microwave:

ASCAT caught eastern edge of circulation though:

Expect 96W to go the way of the dodo pretty soon.

According to whom? Looking at CIRA's Tropical Cyclone Formation Probability Guidance Product site, I only get around 10% (see region II):
