Looks like this system won the battle against 95S and models are aggressively developing this down the road...

98S INVEST 131226 0600 12.4S 123.1E SHEM 15 1010

AN AREA OF CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED NEAR 11.8S 123.8E,
APPROXIMATELY 375 NM NORTH-NORTHEAST OF BROOME, AUSTRALIA. ANIMATED
MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS FLARING DEEP CONVECTION OVER
A BROAD, ILL-DEFINED LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A 252226Z
TRMM IMAGE DEPICTS FRAGMENTED CONVECTIVE BANDING AROUND THE
PERIPHERY OF THE LLCC, ESPECIALLY OVER THE NORTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE DUE
TO DISRUPTION BY TIMOR ISLAND. RECENT ASCAT IMAGERY SUPPORTS THE
BROAD NATURE OF THE CIRCULATION AND SHOWS 15 TO 20 KNOT WINDS OVER
THE EASTERN AND WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE CIRCULATION. SHIP
OBSERVATIONS NEAR THE CENTER INDICATE LIGHT WINDS AND SLP NEAR 1006
MB. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A MARGINALLY-FAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENT WITH WEAK TO MODERATE (10 TO 20 KNOTS) VERTICAL WIND
SHEAR AND GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW INTO A DEEP TROUGH POSITIONED OVER
CENTRAL AUSTRALIA. THE DYNAMIC MODELS INDICATE SIGNIFICANT
DEVELOPMENT AFTER THE SYSTEM MOVES SOUTHWARD TO SOUTHWESTWARD, AWAY
FROM TIMOR ISLAND, IN THE NEXT 1 TO 2 DAYS.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED
SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL
PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1005 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24
HOURS IS LOW.

REMARKS:
The system previously located in the Joseph Bonaparte has developed a new
circulation well to the north of Broome. From a policy perspective the same
system number has been maintained, however the low level centre appears to be
developing under new, much broader, mid level circulation.

A weak curved band pattern gives a DT of 1.5, which is supported by the PT and
MET = 1.5. CIMMS shear is analysed as moderate shear over the system, with lower
shear to the system's south. There is also a good outflow channel in the upper
winds to the south. SST above 30 degrees is favourable for development.

The system is likely to reach tropical cyclone intensity on Saturday. Model
guidance suggests a broad, monsoonal like, structure in the development phase,
with a contraction of the RMW as the system approaches maturity.

All guidance suggest a large diameter system, greater than the climatological
norm. This may be significant when storm surge and wind impacts are considered
later in the system lifecycle.

The next bulletin for this system will be issued by: 26/1900 UTC by Perth TCWC.

parallel to the coast.

Gales with gusts to 100 kilometres per hour may develop on the west Kimberley
coast between Cape Leveque and Broome late Saturday. Heavy rainfall is expected
on Saturday and Sunday in coastal areas of the west Kimberley.

As the system begins to approach the Pilbara coast later on Sunday, gales are
expected to develop further west to Port Hedland and then to Mardie including
Karratha overnight or Monday morning. The system should steadily intensify
before reaching the coast.

SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT//
RMKS/
1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN
170 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 13.3S 122.3E TO 17.8S 118.4E
WITHIN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AVAILABLE DATA DOES NOT JUSTIFY
ISSUANCE OF NUMBERED TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNINGS AT THIS TIME. WINDS
IN THE AREA ARE ESTIMATED TO BE 25 TO 30 KNOTS. METSAT IMAGERY AT
270700Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 14.1S
120.9E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 08 KNOTS.
2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 12.6S
123.0E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 14.1S 120.9E, APPROXIMATELY 250 NM NORTH-
NORTHWEST OF BROOME, AUSTRALIA. RECENT ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL
SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS ENHANCED DEEP CONVECTION CONSOLIDATING
OVER A BROAD LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A 270542Z NOAA-19
89 GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE REVEALS IMPROVED DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING OVER
THE SOUTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE WRAPPING INTO A DEFINED LLCC. A 270044Z
ASCAT PASS SHOWS AN ELONGATED 25 TO 30 KNOT CIRCULATION WITH WEAKER
WINDS IN THE CENTER. A RECENT OBSERVATION REPORT FROM BROWSE ISLAND
INDICATES A PRESSURE FALL OF 4 MB OVER THE PAST 24 HOURS WITH SEA
LEVEL PRESSURE NEAR 1001 MB. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE
SYSTEM IS IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH LOW TO MODERATE (10 TO 20
KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND STRONG POLEWARD OUTFLOW ALOFT. A WARM
SEA SURFACE, WITH TEMPERATURES EXCEEDING 30 DEGREES CELSIUS, ALSO
FAVORS DEVELOPMENT OF THIS SYSTEM. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS
ARE ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS
ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 999 MB. BASED ON THE IMPROVED STRUCTURE AND
FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, THE POTENTIAL FOR THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24
HOURS IS HIGH.

REMARKS:
280900Z POSITION NEAR 15.8S 120.5E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 05S (FIVE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 306 NM NORTH-
NORTHEAST OF PORT HEDLAND, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD
AT 06 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY (MSI) SHOWS THAT FORMATIVE BANDS, ALTHOUGH STILL FRAGMENTED,
HAVE DEEPENED AND WRAPPED TIGHTER INTO A BROAD LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION
CENTER (LLCC). THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON THE MSI ANIMATION
WITH POOR CONFIDENCE, GIVEN THE BROAD NATURE OF THE LLCC. THE INITIAL
INTENSITY IS EXTRAPOLATED FROM NEARBY SURFACE OBSERVATIONS AND IS
SUPPORTED BY THE 280600Z DVORAK ESTIMATE OF 35 KNOTS FROM APRF. UPPER
LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE SYSTEM IS JUST WEST OF A SUBTROPICAL
HIGH (STH) IN AN AREA OF LOW TO MODERATE (10-15 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND
SHEAR (VWS). HOWEVER, A STRONG WESTWARD AND POLEWARD OUTFLOW INDUCED
BY THE SAME STH, IS EASILY OFFSETTING THE VWS AND SUSTAINING THE
ASSOCIATED CONVECTION. TC 05S IS EXPECTED TO TRACK SOUTHWESTWARD
AROUND THE STH TOWARDS PORT HEDLAND BEFORE RECURVING SOUTHEASTWARD,
MAKING LANDFALL APPROXIMATELY 180 NM EAST OF LEARMONTH SHORTLY AFTER
TAU 48. REMNANTS OF THE CYCLONE WILL GRADUALLY ERODE DUE TO LAND
INTERACTION AND DISSIPATE BY TAU 96. THE AVAILABLE NUMERIC GUIDANCE
IS IN LOOSE AGREEMENT WITH THE RECURVATURE SCENARIO WITH GFDN AS THE
WESTWARD OUTLIER. THE JTWC FORECAST IS LAID CLOSE BUT SLIGHTLY EAST
OF THE MODEL CONSENSUS WITH POOR CONFIDENCE. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE
HEIGHT AT 280600Z IS 10 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 281500Z, 282100Z,

TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING CENTRE PERTH

TROPICAL CYCLONE FORECAST TRACK MAP
Tropical Cyclone Christine

Issued at 6:13 pm WST Saturday 28 December 2013.

Image

Remarks:
Tropical Cyclone Christine is moving steadily to the southwest roughly parallel to the coast.

Gales with gusts to 100 kilometres per hour are expected on the west Kimberley coast between Cape Leveque
and Broome tonight and tomorrow morning. Heavy rainfall is expected overnight and Sunday in coastal areas of
the west Kimberley.

As the tropical cyclone begins to approach the Pilbara coast later on Sunday gales are expected to extend
further west to Whim Creek, including Port Hedland.

Overnight on Sunday and into Monday gales and heavy rainfall may further extend to Exmouth, including
Onslow and Karratha, and adjacent inland parts. If Christine continues to develop as expected a severe tropical
cyclone impact on the Pilbara is likely on Monday and Tuesday morning.

Yeah looking good considering it was forecasted on this thread as devoid of any intense convention in the LLCC lol.

Indeed up to 55 knots and landfall intensity more stronger...

REMARKS:
290300Z POSITION NEAR 16.9S 120.0E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 05S (CHRISTINE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 240 NM
NORTH-NORTHEAST OF PORT HEDLAND, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-
SOUTHWESTWARD AT 02 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT ANIMATED
MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) DEPICTS A CONSOLIDATING SYSTEM
WITH DEEPENING CONVECTION AND FORMATIVE CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING
INTO THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A 282330Z SSMIS
MICROWAVE IMAGE REVEALS AN IMPROVING SYSTEM WITH MULTIPLE CONVECTIVE
FEEDER BANDS SPIRALING OUT FROM THE LARGE MICROWAVE EYE FEATURE. THE
INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON THE MSI ANIMATION AND SSMIS IMAGE WITH
GOOD CONFIDENCE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 55 KNOTS BASED
ON CONGRUENT DVORAK INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 55 KNOTS. UPPER-LEVEL
ANALYSIS INDICATES TC 05S IS JUST WEST OF A SUBTROPICAL HIGH (STH)
IN AN AREA OF LOW (5-10 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS). ANIMATED
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY INDICATES STRONG WESTWARD AND POLEWARD OUTFLOW
CHANNELS AIDING THE INTENSIFICATION OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS. TC 05S
IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TRACKING SOUTHWESTWARD AROUND THE STH
TOWARDS PORT HEDLAND BEFORE RECURVING SOUTHEASTWARD, MAKING LANDFALL
APPROXIMATELY 220 NM EAST OF LEARMONTH AROUND TAU 36. AFTER
LANDFALL, REMNANTS OF TC CHRISTINE WILL GRADUALLY ERODE DUE TO LAND
INTERACTION AND DISSIPATE BY TAU 72. THE AVAILABLE NUMERIC GUIDANCE
IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE EXCEPTION OF GFDN WHICH REMAINS THE
WESTWARD OUTLIER. THE JTWC FORECAST IS LAID WITH FAIR CONFIDENCE
SLIGHTLY EAST OF THE MODEL CONSENSUS TO OFFSET THE UNLIKELY WIDE
TURN THAT IS BEING FORECAST BY GFDN. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT
AT 290000Z IS 15 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 290900Z, 291500Z, 292100Z
AND 300300Z.//

TOP PRIORITY FOR IMMEDIATE BROADCAST

TROPICAL CYCLONE ADVICE NUMBER 23
Issued at 2:56 pm WST on Sunday 29 December 2013

A Cyclone WARNING is current for coastal areas from Cape Leveque to Mardie,
including Broome, Port Hedland and Karratha, and extending inland to Marble Bar.

A Cyclone WATCH is current for coastal areas from Mardie to Exmouth, including
Onslow, and extending inland to Paraburdoo and Newman and into the northeast
Gascoyne.

At 2:00 pm WST Tropical Cyclone Christine, Category 2 was estimated to be
280 kilometres west northwest of Broome and
365 kilometres north northeast of Port Hedland and
moving south southwest at 10 kilometres per hour towards the Pilbara coast.

Tropical Cyclone Christine lies off the west Kimberley coast and is expected to
intensify further as it moves towards the Pilbara coast.

Gales with gusts to 100 kilometres per hour are possible on the west Kimberley
coast south of Cape Leveque today. Heavy rainfall is expected today in coastal
areas of the west Kimberley and adjacent inland parts.

As the tropical cyclone begins to approach the Pilbara coast, gales are
expected to extend further west along the Pilbara coast to Whim Creek late
today or early on Monday morning.

During Monday gales and heavy rainfall are expected to extend to Mardie and
possibly as far west as Exmouth, and then to the inland Pilbara and northeast
Gascoyne late Monday and on Tuesday. If Christine continues to develop as
expected a severe tropical cyclone impact on the Pilbara coast is likely late
on Monday or early on Tuesday, with VERY DESTRUCTIVE winds with gusts in excess
of 165 kilometres per hour near the cyclone centre.

People on the coast between Pardoo and Mardie are warned of the potential for a
VERY DANGEROUS STORM TIDE late Monday night or early Tuesday morning. Tides may
rise significantly above the normal high tide mark with DAMAGING WAVES and VERY
DANGEROUS COASTAL INUNDATION.
