How about 876 mb and a Cat 5 for over 5 days all the way to 150E?

00Z still the same but slightly weaker, 878 mb, and stays at Cat 5 for 5 days...

Now that's what I call stolen ACE. Heh.

Kilo is sneaky. Refused to strengthen earlier when it first formed earlier to make sure the WPAC gets the ACE.

Which would mean that if every storm in the EPAC/CPAC crosses into the WPAC, the EPAC would have zero ACE? Am I getting this right? :D

ACE goes fair, what goes with East Pac (179W-onwards) will be counted for EPAC, and the units for the WPAC (179E-onwards) will be for the WPAC. It does not stay in whichever basin your preference is, it goes wherever and however it is. Each of us have our biases, but let's settle that.

Example:

HURRICANE OHO
INTENSITY - ACE - LAT/LONG - TIME
140 KTS - 1.96 - 12.3N/179.4W - 09Z
140 KTS - 1.96 - 12.4N/179.7W - 15Z
145 KTS - 2.1025 - 12.6N/179.8E - 21Z

In this case, the 09z and 15z advisories are counted for the EPAC, and the 21z goes to the WPAC (reaches eastern Hemisphere) and goes through and the remaining advisories until dissipation (assuming it remains in the WPac) will all be counted. The advisories before 180E will be counted to the other basin

I hope this helps :D 8-)

Genevieve was sneakier. Since it was a tropical storm for most of its lifetime, but it rapidly intensified at the last minute near the IDL, and it became a super typhoon as it immediately entered the basin. It generated only about 4-6 units of ACE to the EPAC and 22 to the WPAC :lol:

It designates the area of responsibility of each agency, and to make it less confusing. A typhoon is not a boat. I get the analogy there, but what I'm trying to point out is that it is how it actually is supposed to be: it's like having a football game. The points of one team counts only for one team. Even own goals scored by the opposing teams count as those of the other team. That's why some ACE units from a CPAC/EPAC storm count as for the WPAC. Each basin here is represented by the goal, the typhoon is the ball. So if the ball enters whichever goal, the score goes to whichever team it comes from, regardless of who scored it.

I think spiral has a point here. A basin to a hurricane is like a mother to its child. The basin nurtures an area of disorganized showers and low pressure into a beautiful hurricane. The hurricane and the ACE it generates should be credited towards its origin.

But at the same time... the other basin that the hurricane crosses into is also responsible for the well being of the storm and this means it also needs to be rewarded.

Maybe they should split the ACE values of a storm that crossed into another basin with the storms origin basin and the basin it's currently in.

Third and fourth sentence.... that's my point tho

Kilo is on a collision course to a strong ridge.. should start to go westward then SWS upon entering WPAC.

In spite of the southwesterly shear, Kilo has remained quite well put together internally.

Also, as of 18Z today (August 31st), Kilo has existed as a tropical entity for eleven days now, although it was a tropical depression for a number of them. It's kinda weird to think that this has been around that long, especially considering how much life it likely has ahead of it.

Since it looks like it may maintain Cat 3+ strength for well over a week that makes me wonder: What is the longest a cyclone has maintained major hurricane status?

NWS Guam's first mention of Kilo as it slowly moves into it's AOR...

HURRICANE KILO IS JUST EAST OF THE DATE LINE. IT IS EXPECTED TO
CROSS THE DATE LINE...IN WHICH CASE IT WOULD BE CHRISTENED TYPHOON
KILO. IT IS THEN EXPECTED TO TRACK NEARLY WESTWARD AT AROUND 23N.
KILO IS CURRENTLY A MAJOR HURRICANE AND IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN A
MAJOR TYPHOON THROUGH THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS AS IT PASSES THROUGH
THE WESTERN PACIFIC. IT IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN NORTH OF ALL THE
MAJOR ISLANDS OF MICRONESIA...HOWEVER IT MAY POSE SOME THREAT TO
SOUTHERN ISLANDS OF JAPAN.
