I wonder why it got the 'P' designation. with it west of 135ºE, I think it should have received the 'S' designation.

Tropical Cyclone Outlook for the Western Region
IDW10800

Tropical Cyclone Outlook for the Western Region
Issued at 2:00 pm WST on Tuesday 13 February 2018
for the period until midnight WST Friday 16 February 2018.

Existing Cyclones in the Western Region:
Nil.

Potential Cyclones:

A weak tropical low lies about 350 kilometres east northeast of Darwin. It is expected to move in a west southwest direction on Wednesday and Thursday, towards the northern Kimberley. On Friday it is likely to move off the west Kimberley coast. If it remains over water, there is a high chance of it developing into a tropical cyclone over the weekend.


Likelihood of this system being a tropical cyclone in the Western Region on:
Wednesday:Very Low
Thursday:Low
Friday:Moderate

GFS run with sub 900mb. Can it get this one right. Usually over cooks with these.

12z GFS has almost a below 900 mb cyclone as it tracks thru more water while ECMWF goes down to 946 mbs as it tracks thru less water before it goes inland.

Upgraded to Medium.

THE AREA OF CONVECTION (INVEST 91S) PREVIOUSLY LOCATED
NEAR 11.9S 133.0E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 13.1S 131.5E, APPROXIMATELY
54 NM SOUTHEAST OF DARWIN, AUSTRALIA. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED
SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 131253Z 89GHZ MHS MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT A
CONSOLIDATING REGION OF LOW LEVEL TURNING WITH LARGE AREAS OF
FLARING CONVECTION BEGINNING TO WRAP IN AS CONVECTIVE BANDS. THE
DISTURBANCE IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN AN AREA OF STRONG DIVERGENCE
ALOFT WITH LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, DUE TO A NEARBY POINT SOURCE,
AND WARM SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES (28-29 CELSIUS) JUST OFFSHORE.
91S IS CURRENTLY CONSOLIDATING OVER LAND, HOWEVER, GLOBAL MODELS
INDICATE 91S WILL TRACK SOUTHWEST ALONG THE AUSTRALIAN COASTLINE. IT
IS UNCLEAR AT THIS TIME WHETHER 91S WILL TRACK OVERWATER, BUT RAPID
CONSOLIDATION INTO A TROPICAL CYCLONE IS HIGHLY PROBABLE IF AND WHEN
IT DOES. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 20 TO 25
KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1007 MB.
THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS UPGRADED TO MEDIUM.

17th EDT GFS18z Broome



http://stormcast.com.au/stormcast.html? ... :null:0#sc
GFS18z was coming in line with the other global models. Looks right the trough to the south should weaken the ridge bringing any vort ashore.

The five day forecast currently shows a category 3 landfall (Australian scale) just east of Port Hedland. However, note that the uncertainty area is more than 1000 km in diameter covering all possible outcomes from a landfall near Onslow to staying inland the whole time...

REMARKS:
Tropical Low 17U is a well-structured low moving over land over the north
Kimberley. It was located using Wyndham radar and visible imagery.

CIMSS shear estimate at 2100 UTC was between 10 and 15 knots with some outflow
both equatorward and poleward.

Conditions are favourable for development with SSTs in the 27-29C range and
generally low wind shear forecast.

W/SW motion will continue today and on Friday due to a mid level ridge to the
south. The system will be close to the coast later today and move offshore
overnight or early Friday and develop into a tropical cyclone during Friday.
Development may be earlier if the system moves offshore between Kuri Bay and
Cape Leveque.

On Saturday, an approaching mid level trough will assist steering the system to
the south. Intensification to category 2 is likely early Saturday and to
category 3 as the system approaches the east Pilbara coast. Coastal crossing is
expected during Sunday between Bidyadanga and Pardoo, or early Monday if the
track is a bit further west towards Port Hedland.

There is some uncertainty in the track, including forecast motion. Some NWP
ensemble members have a track further west, this is accounted for in the
uncertainty zone which extends just to the east of Karratha. There is also a
spread in the coastal crossing time, ranging generally from early Sunday to
early Monday.

REMARKS:
Tropical Low 17U is a well-structured low moving over land over the northwest
Kimberley. It was located using visible imagery.

CIMSS shear estimate at 0300 UTC was between 10 and 15 knots with some outflow
both equatorward and poleward.

Conditions are favourable for development with SSTs in the 27-29C range and
generally low wind shear forecast.

W/SW motion will continue today and on Friday due to a mid level ridge to the
south. The system will be close to the coast later today and forecast to move
offshore overnight or early Friday and develop into a tropical cyclone during
Friday. Development may be earlier if the system moves offshore between Kuri Bay

On Saturday, an approaching mid level trough will assist steering the system to
the south. Intensification to category 2 is likely late Friday or early Saturday
and to category 3 Saturday afternoon as the system approaches the east Pilbara
or far west Kimberley coast. Coastal crossing is expected during Sunday between
Bidyadanga and Port Hedland.

There is some uncertainty in the track, including forecast motion. Some NWP
ensemble members have a track further west, this is accounted for in the
uncertainty zone which extends just to the east of Karratha. There is also a
spread in the coastal crossing time, ranging generally from early Sunday to late

REMARKS:
Tropical Low 17U is a well-structured low moving over land over the northwest
Kimberley. It was located using Broome radar, animated IR imagery and surface
observations.

Conditions for development are very favourable once this system gets over open
water. SSTs are in the range 27-29C. Wind shear is low [less than 15 knots over
the centre by the CIMSS analysis at 1200 UTC] and there is evidence of outflow
channels both equatorward and poleward.

Favourable environmental conditions are expected continue for the next two days.
Hence the system is expected to steadily intensify and a period of rapid
intensification could occur.

W/SW motion will continue during Friday due to a mid level ridge encircling the
southern side of the system. Models indicate that during Saturday an approaching
upper trough will erode the ridge to the southwest of the system centre,
encouraging a more southerly motion. The steering pattern is quite finely
balanced during this period and this is reflected in model scenarios that show
the system moving further west, or doing a loop off the coast before southerly,
or even southeasterly, motion is established.

The track uncertainty during this period leads to uncertainty in the coastal
crossing time, but a crossing near 80 Mile Beach some time on Sunday is most
likely. Favourable conditions for development make a Severe coastal crossing
likely.

REMARKS:
160900Z POSITION NEAR 18.2S 121.2E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 10S (TEN), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 46 NM WEST OF
BROOME, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWESTWARD AT 10 KNOTS OVER THE
PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS
CONVECTION THAT IS STARTING TO BECOME MORE ORGANIZED AND THAT THE LOW
LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) HAS MOVED OVER WATER. THE INITIAL
POSITION IS BASED ON A 160600Z HIMAWARI VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGE WHICH
SHOWS LOW LEVEL CLOUD BANDING AND THE DEVELOPING CONVECTION. THE
INITIAL INTENSITY OF 30 KNOTS IS HEDGED SLIGHTLY ABOVE A 160143Z
METOP-B ASCAT IMAGE WHICH SHOWS 25 KNOT WINDS, BASED ON IMPROVING
CONVECTION AND THE PRESENCE OF WARM SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS REVEALS FAVORABLE WIND SHEAR (10 KNOTS) ALONG
WITH VERY STRONG POLEWARD AND EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW CHANNELS THAT
CONTINUE TO DEVELOP. SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES ARE FAVORABLE FOR
DEVELOPMENT, RANGING FROM 28 TO 30 DEGREES CELSIUS. ALL OF THESE
FACTORS WILL PROVIDE A VERY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR TC 10S,
ALLOWING FOR RAPID INTENSIFICATION TO 60 KNOTS BY TAU 24 AND 80 KNOTS
BY TAU 48. TC 09P IS TRACKING ALONG THE NORTHWESTERN EDGE OF THE
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE POSITIONED TO THE SOUTHEAST. DYNAMIC MODEL GUIDANCE
SHOWS SOUTHWESTWARD MOVEMENT OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS FOLLOWED BY A
PERIOD OF HIGH UNCERTAINTY AND LITTLE MOVEMENT AS TC 10S BECOMES
QUASI-STATIONARY. AFTER TAU 48 THERE IS GOOD AGREEMENT THAT TC 10S
WILL TRACK SOUTHWARD. MODELS ARE INDICATING A NEARLY 100NM WIDE
SPREAD WHEN TC 10S MAKES LANDFALL. THEREFORE, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE
IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT
160600Z IS 9 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 161500Z, 162100Z, 170300Z AND
170900Z. THIS CANCELS AND SUPERCEDES REF A (WTXS21 PGTW 151400).//

EURO keeps it over water for almost 2 days and is much stronger than GFS.
