Looking more extratropical by the minute


Clearly. And weakening. Still have to watch, but much less of a threat now.

So you are under TCCOR 4 right now?


From what I understand, we're always in TCCOR 4 during typhoon season since we're in a high risk area. The last time we were in TCCOR 3 was when Melor went by a few weeks ago and when Morakot passed us back in August. They haven't upgraded it at all for this storm.

Nice visible shot...you can see the convection enhanced by the frontal boundary curving outward from the west side up to the north. You can also see a nice edge of solid clouds with clearing to the south if you follow a line just north of due east out from the centre - that's what is quickly becoming the warm front of the system. To the south, you can also see the last of the tropical-looking outflow from the system, before the stronger upper-level winds associated with the front to the north cuts those off too. At this rate, the ET process should be done with by this time tomorrow - and that's when things will get interesting!

That's an amazing shot! It seems like we're getting the worst we're probably going to get, right now.

This is the windiest all day. I would have to say these gust are about 45-50 mph

I have a question. It seems whenever a Hurricane hits the east coast or GOM there are always Tornado watches or warnings that go up. I never see that on in the WPAC. Is that because they can't form in the WPAC or maybe because the weather doesn't show it as much or what?

Just last week, a tornado hit one of the towns here...Yes, it is possible to occur in the WPAC....For some reason, our local agencies never warn about tornadoes

Because tornadoes tend to be rarer-occurring in the region, very few agencies ever issue tornado warnings. I'm sure it's possible that there are localised warnings for severe weather (which pretty much includes tornadoes) in such an event anyway.

Grrrr...Just found water coming in one of my windowsills...got all over a few books I had sitting there. Now must go around checking all windows. It's really roaring out there, now. I was expecting this to be much calmer for being a tropical storm.

Here is a link to an interesting, if not farfetched theory regarding Lupit.

Note: The Manila Bulletin has the largest circulation in the city, I think.

Wow. That made me think for some seconds. That kind of technology that can alter the movement or intensity of a cyclone is not possible. If that whatsoever weather modification machine really exist, then why didn't it stop PARMA and KETSANA from causing devastation in the country?

The project that attempts to weaken or to drive a system away has been stopped. It was in the U.S. but I couldn't recall much from it. They use this cloud seeding technique to weaken the core of a hurricane then they observed that it worked out (little they know that it was an eyewall replacement that actually weakens it). They learned afterwards that it is naturally occuring even w/o cloud seeding, and there are chances that the system may intesify rather than weaken, or taking a more dangerous track.

REMARKS:
250900Z POSITION NEAR 25.3N 129.1E.
TROPICAL STORM (TS) 22W (LUPIT), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 85 NM
SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF OKINAWA, HAS TRACKED EAST-NORTHEASTWARD AT 09
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS THE
SYSTEM HAS LOST A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF CONVECTION AS STRONG
SOUTHWESTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR ERODED ITS VERTICAL STRUCTURE. THE
CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY SHOWING
AN EYE-LIKE FEATURE AND ON RADAR FIXES FROM JAPAN. THE CURRENT
INTENSITY IS AN AVERAGE OF DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM RJTD, KNES, AND
PGTW. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES TS 22W IS JUST TO THE SOUTH OF
THE BAROCLINIC ZONE AS DEPICTED BY THE THICKNESS PACKING ON THE
250000Z 1000-500 MB THICKNESS CHART. AS THE SYSTEM BECOMES EMBEDDED
IN THE BAROCLINIC ZONE, IT WILL BEGIN TO ACCELERATE POLEWARD AND
BECOME FULLY EXTRA-TROPICAL (ET) BY TAU 48. DESPITE THE HIGH VERTICAL
WIND SHEAR, THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER WILL WEAKEN BUT REMAIN
INTACT AND MAINTAIN TS INTENSITY UP TO ET STATUS. THE AVAILABLE
NUMERIC GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THIS FORECAST.
MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 250600Z IS 23 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS
AT 251500Z, 252100Z, 260300Z AND 260900Z.//
