It looked like it was ready to rapidly strengthen last night but it was another one of those storms that don't do anything for like 16 hours and remain the same. Then they just explode after that out of nowhere and continue. This storm could do that based off the appearance and past 24 trends.

Tropical Disturbance Advisory Number A6 issued from RSMC NADI
Nov 23/0154 UTC 2006 UTC.
Tropical Cyclone YANI [CAT 2] 04F [980hPa] centre was located near
12.7S 162.9E at 230000 UTC currently slow moving but expected to turn
west. Position fair based on HRES MTSAT VIS/EIR imagery with
animation. Maximum 10-minute average winds estimated at 55 knots
increasing to 65 knots in the next 12 hours. Winds over 47 knots
within 30 miles of centre and over 33 knots within 120 miles of
centre in the southeastern semicircle and within 90 miles of centre
in the northwest semicircle.
Organisation steadily increasing. Indications of an eye on Vis and IR
imageries. Outflow good to south and west but restricted elsewhere.
Dvorak based on curved band wrap of 1.0 on log10 spiral yielding
strong DT=3.5, MET and PAT agree. Final T based on DT thus
T3.5/3.5/D1.5/24hrs. Cyclone lies just south of a 250-hPa ridge axis
in a divergent and weak-shear region. SST around 28-29C. Yani
expected to move west under strong mid level ridge to east and south.
Global models generally agree on a westward track with gradual
intensification.

REMARKS:
230300Z POSITION NEAR 12.8S 162.7E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 02P (YANI), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 255 NM
SOUTHEAST OF HONIARA, SOLOMON ISLANDS, HAS REMAINED QUASI-
STATIONARY OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE SYSTEM IS LOCATED IN
A WEAK STEERING ENVIRONMENT BETWEEN SUBTROPICAL RIDGES ANCHORED
TO THE WEST AND TO THE EAST OF THE SYSTEM. THE RIDGE TO THE
EAST IS EXPECTED TO BUILD WESTWARD TO THE NORTH OF THE SYSTEM
WHILE AN APPROACHING MID-LATITUDE TROUGH CURRENTLY OVER EASTERN
AUSTRALIA WEAKENS THE RIDGE TO THE WEST. THIS PROCESS SHOULD
ALLOW THE EASTERN RIDGE TO BECOME THE DOMINANT STEERING
INFLUENCE OVER TIME AND STEER THE SYSTEM IN A GENERALLY SOUTH-
WARD DIRECTION. THE TRACK FORECAST IS BASED ON THIS REASONING
AND A CONSENSUS OF ALL AVAILABLE DYNAMIC AIDS WITH LESS EMPHASIS
ON THE MODELS DEPICTING ATYPICAL WESTWARD TRACKS. THE STORM IS
EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND VERY
GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW. THE SYSTEM COULD INTENSIFY MORE RAPIDLY
THAN FORECAST IF THE APPROACHING TROUGH SPURS DEVELOPMENT A MORE
VIGOROUS POLEWARD OUTFLOW CHANNEL THAN CURRENTLY EXPECTED. AN
ANTICIPATED INCREASE IN VERTICAL WIND SHEAR LATER IN THE FORE-
CAST PERIOD SHOULD ACT TO SLOW INTENSIFICATION TO A LESS THAN
CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 230000Z
IS 18 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 231500Z AND 240300Z.//
JTWC now says 95 kt in 48 hours.

Tropical Disturbance Advisory Number A7 issued from RSMC NADI

Tropical Cyclone YANI [CAT 3] 04F [965hPa] centre was located near
13.1S 163.0E at 230600 UTC. Position fair based on HRES MTSAT VIS/EIR
imagery with animation. Cyclone moving south about 04 knots but
expected to turn towards southwest in the next 12 to 24 hours.
Maximum 10-minute average winds estimated at 70 knots increasing to
80 knots in the next 12 to 24 hours. Winds over 63 knots within 30
miles of centre, and winds above 47 knots within 50 miles of centre,
and winds above 33 knots within 120 miles of centre in the
southeastern semicircle and within 90 miles of centre in the
northwestern semicircle.
Organisation steadily increasing. Ragged eye is again becoming cloud
filled on both EIR and VIS imageries. Outflow good to south and west
and fair elsewhere. Dvorak based on Eye Pattern yielding 5.0 with a
white eye with black surrounds. This yields a DT=5.0, MET=5.0 and
PAT=4.5. Final T based on PT thus T4.5/4.5/D1.0/24hrs. Cyclone lies
just south of a 250-hPa ridge axis in a divergent and weak-shear
region. SST around 28-29C. Yani currently steered south by a
mid-level ridge pushing from the east but is however expected to
eventually drift west under strong mid level ridge to south. Global
models generally agree on a southwestward track with gradual
intensification.

Tropical Disturbance Advisory Number A9 issued from RSMC NADI
Nov 23/1957 UTC 2006 UTC.
Tropical Cyclone YANI [CAT 3] 04F [960hPa] centre was located near
13.8S 163.0E at 231800 UTC. Position good based on HRES MTSAT EIR
imagery with animation. Cyclone moving south about 04 knots but
expected to gradually turn south-southwest. Maximum 10-minute average
winds estimated at 75 knots increasing to 85 knots in the next 24
hours. Winds over 63 knots within 30 miles of centre, and winds above
47 knots within 50 miles of centre, and winds above 33 knots within
120 miles of centre in the southeastern semicircle and within 90
miles of centre in the northwestern semicircle.
Organisation steady past 6 hours. Ragged cloud-filled eye still
clearly evident on EIR imagery. Outflow good to south and fair
elsewhere. Dvorak based on Embedded centre pattern with W surround
yielding DT5.0. MET and and PAT at 4.5. Final T based on DT thus
T5.0/5.0/D1.5/24hrs. Cyclone lies underneath a 250-hPa ridge axis in
a divergent region. Shear gradually increasing over system. SST
around 28-29C. A mid-level anticyclone to the east with an associated
ridge extending southwest is expected to steer Yani towards the
south-southwest. This will bring the cyclone into a region of
stronger shear and cooler SSTs. Global models generally agree on a
south-southwest track with gradual intensification only in the short
term.

yielding DT4.5. MET=3.0 and PAT =3.5. Final T =4.0, thus
T4.0/5.0/W1.5/24hrs. A mid-level ridge to southeast is expected to
steer Yani towards the south-southwest, into stronger shear and
cooler SSTs. Global models generally agree on a south-southwest
track.

DT unclassifiable? Rapid weakening, too! I've rarely seen a fix saying MET unrepresentative due to rapid weakening rather than rapid intensification (which we saw with Cimaron and Chebi)!
