WPAC: DOKSURI - Post-Tropical
AN AREA OF CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED NEAR 13.7N 129.2E,
APPROXIMATELY 480 NM EAST OF MANILA, PHILIPPINES . ANIMATED
ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 100040Z MHS 89GHZ
MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT A SHALLOW DISORGANIZED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION
CENTER (LLCC) WITH THE MAJORITY OF THE CONVECTION LOCATED IN THE
SOUTHERN PERIPHERY. A 100041Z METOP-B ASCAT PASS INDICATES A WEAK,
ELONGATED CIRCULATION WITH STRONGER WINDS (15-20 KNOTS) LOCATED TO
THE NORTH. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS WEAK DIFFLUENT OUTFLOW AND
MODERATE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (15-20 KNOTS) WITH FAVORABLE SEA
SURFACE TEMPERATURES (28-30 CELSIUS). GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN GENERAL
AGREEMENT THAT THE DISTURBANCE WILL TRACK TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST
WITH SLOW DEVELOPMENT. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE
ESTIMATED AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS
ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1006 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS LOW.

If this can survive the influence of Talim this can develop into Doksuri and might detected by PAGASA as Maring.

Re: WPAC: INVEST 97W
Models are split regarding the future of this disturbance, with some(including ECMWF) showing a weak system hitting Luzon tomorrow or on Tuesday then emerging into the South China Sea... GFS and some other models indicate dissipation east of Luzon due to the presence of Tropical Cyclone Talim, probably being sheared and/or being absorbed by it...
If 97W manages to emerge into the South China Sea, environmental conditions there could be favorable to allow some additional organization/strengthening..

Re: WPAC: INVEST 97W


Metop-A ASCAT pass in the morning showed a closed/well-defined circulation with the strongest winds(20-25kts) found in the periphery of the circulation's eastern half, but winds near the LLCC were still very weak...

I am calling that since Euro generally the most accurate models in the WPAC, i'm thinking this would make it to SCS regardless.

Isn't that how it is? I know in the Atlantic the LLCC can be completely devoid of any convection but it's the convection that matters.

Well the EURO was excited about this but no longer. The other global models aren't too happy about it either.

HWRF on the other hand strengthens this into a Category 3 and interacts it with Talim.

Re: WPAC: INVEST 97W
Big blob of intense convection is moving west.
If it stays intense and reach Manila - gonna be a quite a rain event.

Re: WPAC: INVEST 97W

totally exposed - but it will keep pumping the sheared convection towards Luzon. Serious rain threat

Re: WPAC: INVEST 97W
PAGASA just upgraded this system into Tropical Depression MARING.
Same name used for Tropical Storm Trami in 2013 that caused extensive flooding in Luzon.

Re: WPAC: INVEST 97W
Has been moving generally westwards, and models have come into better agreement that this will hit Luzon instead of moving north and being absorbed by Typhoon Talim...


GFS and ECMWF models also indicating further intensification over the South China Sea...

Re: WPAC: INVEST 97W
Not looking good! The ECMWF and GFS models are predicting high rainfall accumulations of up to 250mm(10in) in many parts of Central and Southern Luzon including Manila, with isolated totals of 300mm(12in) or more, within the next 36hrs(today to tomorrow, PhT)! People in these areas should be alert for potential severe flooding and mud/landslides...
