WUTIP is now a severe tropical storm per JMA, though they are not expecting a typhoon out of this one???
your eyes be the judge.... typhoon or what??

JMA is always slow on the upgrade

Unlike Pabuk, I think this will eventually be classified a typhoon

WDPN32 PGTW 280300
MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI//
SUBJ/PROGNOSTIC REASONING FOR TROPICAL STORM 20W (WUTIP) WARNING NR
06//
RMKS/
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
TROPICAL STORM (TS) 20W (WUTIP), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 543 NM
EAST-SOUTHEAST OF HANOI, VIETNAM, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWESTWARD AT 06
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY (MSI) AND RECENT MICROWAVE IMAGERY INDICATE THAT TS 20W HAS
INTENSIFIED RAPIDLY OVER THE PAST 24 HOURS (FROM 30 TO 55 KNOTS) AND
THAT THE SYSTEM HAS STALLED AFTER TURNING SHARPLY SOUTHWESTWARD DUE
TO WEAKENING OF THE NARROW STEERING RIDGE. ANIMATED INFRARED
SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS A CENTRAL DENSE OVERCAST FEATURE WITH
MULTIPLE DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDS WRAPPING TIGHTLY INTO THE LOW-LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A 272253Z TRMM IMAGE DEPICTS A SMALL,
WELL-DEFINED MICROWAVE EYE FEATURE WITH IMPROVED CONVECTIVE BANDING
LOCATED PRIMARILY OVER THE NORTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE AND WESTERN SEMI-
CIRCLE DUE TO WEAK EASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. BASED ON THE TRMM
IMAGE, THERE IS GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE INITIAL POSITION AND RECENT
MOTION. ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS IMPROVED POLEWARD OUTFLOW
INTO A DEEP SHORTWAVE TROUGH DIGGING INTO EASTERN CHINA. THE INITIAL
INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 55 KNOTS BASED ON DVORAK INTENSITY
ESTIMATES OF 55 KNOTS FROM KNES AND PGTW. TS 20W IS TRACKING SLOWLY
ALONG THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE (STR)
POSITIONED TO THE NORTH.
3. FORECAST REASONING.
A. NO CHANGE TO THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY SINCE THE PREVIOUS
PROGNOSTIC REASONING MESSAGE.
B. TS 20W IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE TRACKING SLOWLY WESTWARD TO
WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD THROUGH TAU 24 UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF
THE WEAK STR. AFTER TAU 24, THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY
ACCELERATE WESTWARD AS THE STR REBUILDS (AFTER PASSAGE OF THE
SHORTWAVE TROUGH). DYNAMIC GUIDANCE DIVERGES WITH SOLUTIONS VARYING
FROM WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD TO WEST-NORTHWESTWARD. TS 20W IS FORECAST TO
MAKE LANDFALL OVER VIETNAM NEAR 30/06Z THEN TO DISSIPATE DUE TO LAND
INTERACTION. TS 20W WILL CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY TO A PEAK INTENSITY
OF 80 KNOTS PRIOR TO LANDFALL DUE TO GENERALLY FAVORABLE
CONDITIONS.
C. IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD, TS 20W IS FORECAST TO DISSIPATE OVER
LAND. OVERALL, THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE ENTIRE JTWC FORECAST
TRACK DESPITE MINOR DIFFERENCES IN THE MODEL SOLUTIONS.//
NNNN


should be upgraded into our 8th typhoon soon but just by looking at satellite alone, this is already one...


CURRENT ESTIMATE
Date (yyyymmddhh): 2013092720
SATCON (3mem): MSLP = 984 hPa MSW = 55 kt
ADT: 997 hPa 43 kt Scene: UNFRM
CIMSS AMSU: 980 hPa 68 kt Bias Corr: 0 (JTWC)

here's a direct trmm pass to confirm that eye feature.

INTERACTION. TS 20W WILL CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY TO A PEAK INTENSITY

JTWC expects a typhoon with 80 knots MSW (1-min) before landfall.
and it will be a daylight landfall... :clap:

honestly it looks to be already there at 80 knots so a stronger landfall is likely...

if the projected landfall time pans out, this will be a better chase subject than Usagi...
intense typhoon landfall at broad daylight.
with the models...
time for the European model to get some credit..

Imo the eye is angular very small sloping type . Dont see any cold cloud banding
close to the eye may happen with further intensity. Was only at 3.5 when i last looked at nhc.

SUBJ/PROGNOSTIC REASONING FOR TYPHOON 20W (WUTIP) WARNING NR 08//
RMKS//
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
TYPHOON 20W (WUTIP), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 326 NM EASTWARD OF DA
NANG, VIETNAM, HAS TRACKED WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 02 KNOTS OVER THE
PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY (EIR)
INDICATES THAT TY 20W HAS CONTINUED TO INCREASE IN CONVECTIVE
ORGANIZATION AS THE CENTRAL DENSE OVERCAST FEATURE HAS PERSISTED AND
DEEPENED OVER THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WHILE THE
SYSTEM HAS SLOWLY DRIFTED TO THE WEST DISPLAYING QUASI-STATIONARY
MOVEMENT. A 281004Z CORIOLIS 37GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICTS A TIGHTLY
WRAPPED SYSTEM WITH IMPROVED CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING INTO A
SMALL MICROWAVE EYE FEATURE. THERE IS GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE INITIAL
POSITION AND RECENT MOTION BASED ON THE MICROWAVE IMAGE AND RADAR
IMAGERY FROM PADDLE ISLAND, CHINA. THE INITIAL INTENSITY HAS BEEN
INCREASED TO 65 KNOTS BASED ON THE IMPROVING STRUCTURE AND AN
AVERAGE OF DVORAK INTENSITY ESTIMATES THAT RANGE FROM 55 TO 77
KNOTS. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS AND ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS A
FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH DUAL CHANNEL OUTFLOW AND LOW TO MODERATE
(10 TO 20 KNOTS) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. TY 20W CONTINUES TO MEANDER IN
A WEAK STEERING ENVIRONMENT AS THE SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE (STR)
HAS BROKE DOWN IN RESPONSE TO THE DIGGING TROUGH THAT IS CURRENTLY
OVER EASTERN CHINA.
3. FORECAST REASONING.
A. NO CHANGE TO THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY SINCE THE PREVIOUS
PROGNOSTIC REASONING MESSAGE.
B. TY 20W IS FORECAST TO TRACK SLOWLY WESTWARD TO WEST-
SOUTHWESTWARD THROUGH TAU 24 UNDER THE WEAK STEERING INFLUENCE OF
THE REBUILDING STR. AFTER TAU 24, THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO
GRADUALLY ACCELERATE WESTWARD AS THE STR BECOMES MORE ESTABLISHED
AND THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH PROPAGATES TO THE EAST. TY 20W WILL
CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY TO A PEAK INTENSITY OF 85 KNOTS PRIOR TO
LANDFALL DUE TO FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. TY 20W WILL THEN
MAKE LANDFALL OVER VIETNAM SHORTLY AFTER TAU 48 AND WILL BEGIN TO
DISSIPATE DUE TO THE LAND INTERACTION WITH COMPLETE DISSIPATION BY
TAU 72. NUMERIC MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO REMAIN IN TIGHT
AGREEMENT WITH ONLY A 90NM SPREAD BY TAU 48 ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME
SLIGHT DIFFERENCES IN TRACK SPEED. DUE TO THIS CONTINUED TIGHT
AGREEMENT, HIGH CONFIDENCE REMAINS IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK.//
NNNN


interesting discussion from KNES...

H. REMARKS...MICROWAVE SUITE SHOWS SMALL CLUSTER OF VERY STRONG
CONVECTION VERY NEAR THE CENTER OR JUST WSW OF THE CENTER THAT HAS BEEN
SLOWLY PROGRESSING W. THIS CONVECTIVE CLUSTER ALONG WITH ALMOST FULLY
SURROUNDING BANDING OF SIMILAR DEEP CONVECTION IS LEADING TO A VERY
LARGE AREA OF CMG CLOUD TOPS WHICH EMBEDS THE LLC MORE THAN .8 DEGREES
FOR A DT OF 5.0. GIVEN THE LOW LEVEL CENTER LOCATION IS CLOSE BUT COULD
BE FURTHER EAST... THE DT IS REJECTED PARTICULARLY CONSIDERING BANDING
METHOD (USING IR AND SWIR THOUGH THE OVERSHOOTING TOP) WOULD BE 1.2 ON
LOG10 AND EVEN PLUS WHITE ONLY YIELDS 4.5. MET IS LIKEWISE REJECTED AS
IT IS A BIT LOW AT 4.0. PT IS 4.5. FT IS BASED ON PT.
