AN AREA OF CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED NEAR 13.3N 152.4E,
APPROXIMATELY 440 NM EAST OF ANDERSEN AFB, GUAM. ANIMATED ENHANCED
INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS DISORGANIZED FLARING CONVECTION
WITH SOME MID-LEVEL TURNING. A 251036Z METOP-B ASCAT IMAGE SHOWS AN
EDGE OF SWATH BROAD AND ELONGATED SURFACE CIRCULATION BEGINNING TO
FORM. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS SHOWS MODERATE DIFFLUENCE WITH LOW
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. SSTS IN THE REGION ARE ALSO SUPPORTIVE NEAR 29
CELSIUS. NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE SHOWS THE SYSTEM MOVING TO THE WEST
TO WEST-NORTHWEST OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS WITH POSSIBLE
DEVELOPMENT INTO A BROAD TROPICAL STORM OR MONSOON DEPRESSION.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS.
MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1008 MB. THE
POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS TO LOW.

I see 97W got dropped so 99W is the main system that the models blow up. Anyway we can merge the 97W thread to this one for continuity?

Special Weather Statement...Updated
National Weather Service Tiyan GU
347 PM ChST Sun Aug 27 2017

GUZ001>004-280600-
Guam-Rota-Tinian-Saipan-
347 PM ChST Sun Aug 27 2017

A tropical disturbance, which is now subject to a Tropical
Cyclone Formation Alert by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center
(JTWC). The low level circulation center was located by JTWC near
latitude 18.9N, longitude 145.6E, over the northern CNMI. This
system is moving north-northwestward at 9 MPH. A tropical cyclone
may form in the next 12 to 24 hours. This system and increasing
southwesterly flow will combine to bring scattered showers,
isolated thunderstorms and occasional heavy rain through Monday.
Additionally, wind will increase to 15 to 20 mph with higher
gusts. In general, conditions will be worse in Saipan and Tinian
than in Rota and Guam.

If you are planning any outdoor activities through Monday, be
alert for hazardous weather and aware of current conditions and
be prepared to move indoors. Mariners operating small vessels
should be prepared for increasing seas, which will reach 6 feet by
Monday, and small craft advisories may become necessary. Beach
goers and swimmers should stay close to shore and immediately move
indoors if lightning is present.

Stay tuned to the latest statements and advisories from the
National Weather Service and local emergency management offices.
Products issued by the National Weather Service are posted on the
WFO Guam web page at www.prh.noaa.gov/guam.

The size of this thing is incredible.

[euro6208]

A typhoon is what the global models are saying. Not as strong as previous runs due to it's large size and typically monsoon depressions take a long time to consolidate.

Main forecast problem is the slowly developing circulation in the
far northern Marianas. It is beginning to move away, however the
competing influence will be how fast it is developing. Based on
model data a small craft advisory was issued last night for winds
for Tinian and Saipan waters. Based on a 19Z ob from Saipan with a
peak wind report, it is in fine shape so kept it going. The main
wrinkle is that the VAD wind profile now shows 33 to 36 knot winds
at 2000 feet. This could require the small craft advisory to be
extended in area to include Guam and Rota. Will refrain from doing
that unless it is truly necessary. Latest model runs show the
winds could continue into Thursday. will let that ride until
tomorrow though. The advisory can always be extended then if that
still looks good. Lastly, the clouds could continue through most
of the forecast period, while in the current forecast it clears
out around Tuesday night. Overall though weather will improve as
the circulation continues to move away, with little in the way of
potentially dangerous impacts. Did issue an urban and small stream
flood advisory due to the combination of antecedent rainfall
yesterday and some training echoes in southern Guam early this
morning. That advisory has since expired and has not yet shown a
need to be re-issued.

JMA has a TD.

[1900hurricane]

I haven't had much time to analyze much in the WPac lately because of Harvey reasons, so I have to say that this is doing better than I was expecting. Looks TD-ish to me.
