REMARKS:
230900Z POSITION NEAR 12.8S 171.1W.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 08P (WILMA) LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 110 NM NORTH-
NORTHWEST OF PAGO PAGO, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWARD AT 05 KNOTS OVER THE
PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A
230608Z 91H SSMIS MICROWAVE PASS SHOW A PARTIALLY EXPOSED LOW LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER WITH ENHANCED DEEP CONVECTION ALONG THE EASTERN
PERIPHERY OF THE SYSTEM. THE CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON THE
AFOREMENTIONED MICROWAVE IMAGE WITH FAIR CONFIDENCE. THE CURRENT
INTENSITY IS BASED ON DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM PGTW AND PHFO RANGING
FROM 45 TO 55 KNOTS. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS THE SYSTEM IS
LOCATED BENEATH THE RIDGE AXIS IN AN AREA OF LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR
AND ENHANCED NORTHEASTWARD OUTFLOW. SUBSIDENCE ALONG THE SOUTHERN
FLANK OF TC 08P, ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER LEVEL LOW TO THE SOUTH, IS
HINDERING POLEWARD OUTFLOW, WHICH HAS TEMPORARILY STALLED
INTENSIFICATION. TC 08P IS CURRENTLY TRACKING ALONG THE NORTHWESTERN
PERIPHERY OF A DEEP LAYER SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE. TC WILMA IS
FORECAST TO TRACK SOUTHWARD ACROSS PAGO PAGO WITHIN THE NEXT 12 TO
24 HOURS AND GRADUALLY INTENSIFY AS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW TO THE SOUTH
FILLS AND OCEAN HEAT CONTENT (OHC) AND SST VALUES REMAIN FAVORABLE.
THE SYSTEM WILL TRACK GENERALLY SOUTHWESTWARD AFTER TAU 24 AND BEGIN
TO WEAKEN AS IT TRACKS OVER SIGNIFICANTLY COOLER SEA SURFACE
TEMPERATURES AND UNFAVORABLE OHC VALUES WHICH DROP OFF NEAR 25
DEGREES SOUTH. TC 08P IS FORECAST TO UNDERGO EXTRA-TROPICAL
TRANSITION (ET) AFTER TAU 72, BUT COULD DISSIPATE AS A SIGNIFICANT
TROPICAL CYCLONE PRIOR TO COMPLETING ET DUE TO UNFAVORABLE OCEANIC
CONDITIONS. NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE REMAINS TIGHTLY PACKED IN THE
INITIAL TAUS, BUT CONTINUES TO SHOW SPREAD IN THE TIMING OF THE TURN
TO THE SOUTHEAST. THE MOST RECENT MODEL TRACKERS SHOW A SIGNIFICANT
SHIFT FURTHER WEST OF THE PREVIOUS FORECAST TRACK, DEPICTING A
STRONGER RIDGE BUILDING TO THE WEST THEN PREVIOUSLY FORECAST. THE
CURRENT FORECAST REFLECTS THIS SHIFT IN THE MODEL TRACKERS, FAVORING
A TRACK MORE TO THE WEST AND RECURVING THE SYSTEM TO THE SOUTHEAST
JUST NORTH OF NEW ZEALAND RATHER THEN NORTHEAST OF NEW ZEALAND.
MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 230600Z IS 15 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS
AT 232100Z AND 240900Z. REFER TO TROPICAL CYCLONE 09P (ANTHONY)

There is some good convection in the last few hours but I still don't think it looks quite as good as it did say 12-18hrs ago...
Still its a decent system to watch...

Re: SPO: TROPICAL CYCLONE WILMA (06F)
TROPICAL DISTURBANCE ADVISORY NUMBER A10 ISSUED FROM RSMC NADI
Jan 24/0923 UTC 2011 UTC.
TROPICAL CYCLONE WILMA CENTRE 985HPA WAS LOCATED NEAR 15.9S 171.1W AT
240600 UTC. POSITION FAIR BASED ON HR GOES VIS/EIR IMAGERY AND
PERIPHERAL SURFACE OBSERVATIONS. CYCLONE MOVING SOUTH-SOUTHWEST AT
ABOUT 11 KNOTS. CYCLONE INTENSIFYING. MAXIMUM 10-MINUTE AVERAGE
WINDS NEAR THE CENTRE ESTIMATED AT ABOUT 50 KNOTS AND IS EXPECTED TO
INCREASE TO 65 KNOTS BY 250000 UTC.
EXPECT WINDS OVER 47 KNOTS WITHIN 50 NAUTICAL MILES OF CENTRE
OVER 33 KNOTS WITHIN 210 NAUTICAL MILES OF CENTRE IN THE
EASTERN SEMICIRCLE, WITHIN 90 NAUTICAL MILES OF CENTRE ELSEWHERE.
ORGANISATION REMAINS GOOD. CYCLONE HAS INTENSIFIED IN THE LAST 12
HOURS WITH CONVECTION INCREASING NEAR LLCC. PRIMARY BAND WRAPPING
AROUND LLCC FROM THE SOUTH. OUTFLOW GOOD TO NORTH AND SOUTH BUT
DEVELOPING ELSEWHERE. MJO ANALYSIS SHOWS AN EQUITORIAL ROSSBY WAVE
OVER THE SYSTEM. SYSTEM LIES UNDER AN UPPER DIFFLUENT REGION. CIMSS
INDICATES A MODERATELY SHEARED ENVIRONMENT. SST AROUND 28C. DVORAK
ANALYSIS BASED ON 0.9 LOG 10 SPIRAL YIELDING DT 3.5 MET=3.5 PT=3.5.
FT BASED ON DT, THUS T3.5/3.5/D1.0/24HRS. MOST GLOBAL MODELS MOVE
CYCLONE WILMA SOUTHWEST WITH SOME INTENSIFICATION.
