116.4E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 11.8N 116.1E, APPROXIMATELY 425 NM NORTH
OF BRUNEI. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS A
PARTIALLY-EXPOSED LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH
PERSISTENT DEEP CONVECTION OVER THE WEST THROUGH NORTHWEST
QUADRANTS. A 100501Z TRMM IMAGE INDICATES A SLOWLY CONSOLIDATING
LLCC WITH FORMATIVE BANDING WRAPPING INTO THE SOUTHWEST QUADRANT.
RECENT SCATTEROMETRY DATA AND SHIP OBSERVATIONS INDICATE THAT THE
LLCC IS LOCATED ALONG THE SOUTHEAST EDGE OF A STRONG NORTHEAST SURGE
EVENT WITH 20-30 KNOT NORTHERLY WINDS. THE TOTAL PRECIPITABLE WATER
PRODUCT INDICATES SUFFICIENT DEEP MOISTURE. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS
INDICATES THAT THE DISTURBANCE IS LOCATED JUST SOUTH OF THE
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AXIS IN AN AREA OF MODERATE (20-30 KNOT) EASTERLY
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR OFFSET BY GOOD DIFFLUENCE ALOFT. THE MAJORITY OF
THE MODELS SUPPORT WEAK DEVELOPMENT IN THE NEXT 24-36 HOURS. 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 HIGH.

Just to note, that's their forecast map. "Models" are very different things totally.

This storm is really being bombarded by shear, wasn't much of anything to start with and won't be anything in the near future. Great

THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 9.1N
115.5E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 8.9N 115.3E, APPROXIMATELY 250 NM NORTH
OF BRUNEI. ALTHOUGH ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS AN
EXPOSED AND STRETCHED LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH NO
ASSOICATED DEEP CONVECTION, A NEW ASCAT IMAGE (111323Z) REVEALS A
WELL-DEVELOPED FIELD OF SOUTHWESTERLIES OVER THE SOUTHERN
SEMICIRCLE. SEVERAL SHIP REPORTS IN THE VICINITY INDICATE 2-3 MB 24
HR PRESSURE FALLS. TOTAL PRECIPITABLE WATER LOOPS REVEAL THAT THE
SYSTEM HAS MANAGED TO REMAIN INSULATED FROM THE VIGOROUS COLD SURGE
OVER THE SOUTH CHINA SEA, AND VERTICAL WIND SHEAR VALUES ARE
FALLING. CURRENTLY, THE SYSTEM IS NEARLY STATIONARY. THE
NORTHEASTERLIES ON THE POLEWARD SIDE OF THE SYSTEM ARE COUPLING WITH
A WEST WIND BURST ON THE EQUATORWARD SIDE TO SUSTAIN THE
CIRCULATION. THE ENHANCED WESTERLIES ARE DRIVEN BY A MADDEN-JULIAN
OSCILLATION (MJO) EVENT. AS THE COLD SURGE EASES AND THE MJO
TRAVERSES DOWNSTREAM, THE SYSTEM WILL LOSE MUCH OF ITS SPIN, BUT
SUSTAINED REDUCTION IN VERTICAL WIND SHEAR OVER THE SHORT TERM MAY
ALLOW THE SYSTEM TO DEEPEN. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE
ESTIMATED AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED
TO BE NEAR 1004 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A
SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS UPGRADED TO
MEDIUM.

The TCFA was cancelled last night at 5Z:

Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert WTPN21 Cancelled
Issued at 11/0500Z

Nothing there. 30-40 kts shear, 25-35 kt NE monsoon bringing in cooler/drier air. No chance of development.

remarks:
120900z position near 9.4n 113.2e.
Tropical depression (td) 26w, located approximately 415 nm east of
Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam, has tracked west-southwestward at 08
knots over the past six hours. Animated multispectral satellite
imagery depicts a well-defined low-level circulation center (LLCC)
with curved convective banding over the western semi-Circle. A
120447z trmm 37v image indicates that the system has consolidated
over the past 12 hours with improved convective banding wrapping
into a defined center. The system is located along the southeastern
edge of a strong northeast monsoon surge and has struggled to
develop, however, a 12/06z ship report at 6.5n 113.2e, 180nm south,
reported 300/22 knots while a 12/00z ship report at 9.4n 113.6e
indicated 140/24 knots with slp near 1004mb. Additionally, easterly
vertical wind shear has decreased to 10-20 knots allowing deep
convection to build over the LLCC. The current intensity is assessed
at 25 knots based on the ship observations and Dvorak estimates of
25 knots from pgtw. The current position is based on the
aforementioned trmm image with good confidence. TD 26w is tracking
along the southern periphery of the low-level subtropical ridge and
is forecast to turn more west-southwestward after tau 24. Model
guidance is limited to NOGAPS, GFS, ukmo and WBAR and is in poor
agreement with a 465 nm spread at tau 48. WBAR tracks the system
northwestward into the northeast surge while GFS turns the system
sharply southward toward singapore. The official forecast is
positioned close to the model consensus but slightly faster and
favors the NOGAPS solution. This warning supersedes and cancels ref
a, navmarfcstcen 120451z Dec 11 tropical cyclone formation alert
