Re: WPAC: WIPHA - Tropical Storm
while the atlantic and east pacific develops weak sheared storms and many complaining a lack of strong hurricanes especially major hurricanes, over here it's the other way around every year... ![Surprised :eek:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

Updated Position...
WDPN31 PGTW 110300
MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI//
SUBJ/PROGNOSTIC REASONING FOR TROPICAL STORM 25W (WIPHA) WARNING NR
03//
RMKS//
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
TROPICAL STORM 25W (WIPHA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 674 NM
SOUTH OF IWO TO, HAS TRACKED WESTWARD AT 07 KNOTS OVER THE
PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT ANIMATED INFRARED (IR) SATELLITE IMAGERY
SHOWS DEEP CONVECTION PERSISTING NEAR AN INCREASINGLY DEFINED LOW
LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) LOCATED JUST WEST OF GUAM. A 102236Z
SSMI-S MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICTS A PERSISTING BROAD CONVECTIVE BAND
ALONG THE SOUTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE OF THE LLCC. THE POSITION IS BASED ON
RECENT FIXES FROM RJTD AND PGTW AS WELL AS A 102236Z SSMI-S IMAGE.
THE INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 40 KNOTS BASED ON DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM
RJTD, KNES, AND PGTW. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A FAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENT, WITH LOW TO MODERATE (10 TO 20 KTS) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR
AND DIFFLUENT EASTERLY OUTFLOW, ENHANCED BY A TUTT CELL TO THE
NORTHEAST. TS 25W CONTINUES TRACKING ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN
PERIPHERY OF THE DEEP-LAYERED SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE
NORTHEAST.
3. FORECAST REASONING.
A. MEDIUM-TERM FORECAST INTENSITIES HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED UPWARD
FROM THE PREVIOUS WARNING.
B. TS 25W IS WILL CONTINUE TRACKING GENERALLY NORTHWESTWARD ALONG
THE SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE STR OVER THE NEXT 72 HOURS,
TURNING POLEWARD LATE IN PERIOD AS A DEVELOPING MID-LATITUDE TROUGH
PASSES TO THE NORTH. HIGH ALONG TRACK OCEAN HEAT CONTENT, LOW
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, AND FAVORABLE UPPER LEVEL OUTFLOW WILL ALLOW
THE SYSTEM INTENSIFY SIGNIFICANTLY, UP TO AN ESTIMATED PEAK OF 110
KNOTS, BY TAU 72. DYNAMIC MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT
THROUGH TAU 72, WITH NAVGEM AND GFDN INDICATING A SLIGHTLY WIDER
RECURVATURE TO THE LEFT OF THE CURRENT FORECAST TRACK. CONFIDENCE IN
THIS PORTION OF THE TRACK FORECAST IS HIGH.
C. IN THE LATER TAUS, TS 25W IS EXPECTED TO CREST THE STEERING
RIDGE AXIS AND BEGIN RECURVING POLEWARD AHEAD OF THE AFOREMENTIONED
MIDLATITUDE TROUGH. INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND LOWER ALONG-
TRACK SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL INDUCE STEADY WEAKENING. THE
SYSTEM WILL INTERACT WITH THE MID-LATITUDE TROUGH AND BEGIN
EXTRATROPICAL TRANSITION BY TAU 120. DYNAMIC MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN
FAIR AGREEMENT DURING THIS PORTION OF THE FORECAST, WITH MOST
DISAGREEMENT RELATING TO RECURVATURE TIMING AND POST-RECURVATURE
TRACK SPEED. THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK LIES CLOSE TO THE MULTI-MODEL
CONSENSUS. DUE TO UNCERTAINTY IN THE EXACT TIMING OF RECURVATURE AND
POST-RECURVATURE TRACK SPEED, CONFIDENCE IN THE EXTENDED TRACK
FORECAST IS LOW.//

TROPICAL STORM 25W (WIPHA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 636 NM SOUTH

SIX HOURS. RECENT ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI)
SHOWS A BROAD AREA OF DEEP CONVECTION CONSOLIDATING AROUND A LOW
LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) LOCATED JUST WEST OF GUAM. A
110731Z SSMI-S MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICTS A BROAD CONVECTIVE BAND
WRAPPING INTO THE LLCC FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THE POSITION IS BASED
ON A 110439Z AMSU-89 MICROWAVE IMAGE AND FIXES FROM RJTD AND PGTW.
THE INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 50 KNOTS BASED ON RELIABLE SHIP
REPORTS OF 50 KNOTS JUST TO THE SOUTHWEST OF THE LLCC, AS WELL AS A
110027Z ASCAT PASS SHOWING 50 KNOT WINDS. THIS INTENSITY IS IN LINE
WITH THE CIMSS AMSU AND SATCON ESTIMATES, WHILE SUBJECTIVE DVORAK
ESTIMATES VARY FROM 35-45 KNOTS. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A
FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT, WITH LOW TO MODERATE (10 TO 20 KTS)
NORTHEASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND DIFFLUENT EASTERLY OUTFLOW,
ENHANCED BY A TUTT CELL TO THE NORTHEAST. TS 25W CONTINUES TRACKING

3. FORECAST REASONING.
A. THERE IS NO CHANGE TO THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY SINCE THE
PREVIOUS PROGNOSTIC REASONING MESSAGE.
B. TS 25W WILL CONTINUE TRACKING GENERALLY NORTHWESTWARD
ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE STR OVER THE NEXT 72 HOURS.
A DEVELOPING MID-LATITUDE TROUGH PASSING TO THE NORTH WILL CAUSE TS
25W TO BEGIN A POLEWARD DEFLECTION LATE IN THE PERIOD. TS 25W
IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE INTENSIFYING THROUGH TAU 72 DUE TO
HIGH OCEAN HEAT CONTENT, LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, AND GOOD UPPER
LEVEL OUTFLOW ALONG THE TRACK. INTENSITY GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A HIGH
LIKELIHOOD OF RAPID INTENSIFICATION OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS, WITH A
FORECAST PEAK OF 110 KNOTS BY TAU 72. NAVGEM AND GFDN REMAIN
LEFTWARD OUTLIERS AMONG THE DYNAMICAL MODELS, HOWEVER, THE OVERALL
ENVELOPE OF DETERMINISTIC AND ENSEMBLE MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT
ON THE NORTHWESTLY TRACK. BASED ON THIS AGREEMENT, FORECAST TRACK
CONFIDENCE DURING THIS PERIOD IS HIGH.
C. IN THE LATER TAUS, TS 25W IS EXPECTED TO CREST THE STEERING
RIDGE AXIS AND RECURVE TO THE NORTHEAST AS THE MIDLATITUDE TROUGH
MOVES IN FROM THE WEST. INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND LOWER
ALONG-TRACK SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL INDUCE STEADY WEAKENING.
EXTRATROPICAL TRANSITION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN PRIOR TO TAU 120 AS
THE SYSTEM INTERACTS WITH THE APPROACHING BAROCLINIC TROUGH.
DETERMINISTIC AND ENSEMBLE MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON
THE RECURVATURE SCENCARIO, ALTHOUGH THERE IS A FAIR AMOUNT OF
UNCERTAINTY IN THE EXACT TIMING OF THE RECURVATURE AND SUBSEQUENT

SUBJ/PROGNOSTIC REASONING FOR TROPICAL STORM 25W (WIPHA) WARNING NR
06//
RMKS//
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
TROPICAL STORM 25W (WIPHA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 558 NM
SOUTH OF IWO TO, HAS TRACKED NORTHWESTWARD AT 09 KNOTS OVER THE
PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED (EIR) SATELLITE
IMAGERY SHOWS DEEP CONVECTION CONTINUING TO CONSOLIDATE AROUND THE
LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A 111754Z AMSU 89-GHZ MICROWAVE
IMAGE DEPICTS A BROAD BAND OF DEEP CONVECTION WRAPPING INTO THE LLCC
FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THE POSITION IS BASED ON THE AFOREMENTIONED EIR
AND FIXES FROM RJTD AND PGTW. THE INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 55 KNOTS
BASED ON THE MOST RECENT PGTW DVORAK ESTIMATE, AND CONSISTENT WITH
PRIOR SCATTEROMETER DATA. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES FAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS REMAIN IN PLACE, WITH LOW (5 TO 10 KTS)
NORTHEASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, AND STRONG RADIAL OUTFLOW
OBSERVED IN ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY. POLEWARD OUTFLOW IS ALSO
BEING ENHANCED BY A TUTT CELL TO THE NORTHEAST. TS 25W IS TRACKING
ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE DEEP-LAYERED SUBTROPICAL
RIDGE (STR) TO THE NORTHEAST.
3. FORECAST REASONING.
A. THERE IS NO CHANGE TO THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY SINCE THE
PREVIOUS PROGNOSTIC REASONING MESSAGE.
B. TS 25W WILL TURN POLEWARD AS IT PROGRESSES ALONG THE
SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE STEERING RIDGE OVER THE NEXT 72 HOURS.
FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS WILL DRIVE CONTINUED
INTENSIFICATION TO A PEAK INTENSITY OF 105 KNOTS BY TAU 48.
INTENSITY GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A HIGH LIKELIHOOD OF RAPID
INTENSIFICATION OVER THE NEXT ONE TO TWO DAYS. DYNAMICAL TRACK
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO BE IN GOOD AGREEMENT, AND THE CURRENT FORECAST
LIES CLOSE TO THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS. BASED ON THE STAIGHTFORWARD
STEERING ENVIRONMENT AND AGREEMENT AMONG THE NUMERICAL MODELS,
FORECAST TRACK CONFIDENCE DURING THIS PERIOD IS HIGH.
C. IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD, TS 25W WILL ROUND THE STEERING RIDGE
AXIS AND ACCELERATE TO THE NORTHEAST AHEAD OF A MIDLATITUDE TROUGH
APPROACHING FROM THE NORTHWEST. INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND
LOWER ALONG-TRACK SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL INDUCE STEADY
WEAKENING. TS 25W SHOULD BEGIN TO INTERACT WITH THE BAROCLINIC
TROUGH BEGINNING AROUND TAU 96, ACCELERATE RAPIDLY INTO THE MID-
LATITUDE WESTERLIES THEREAFTER, AND COMPLETE A RAPID EXTRATROPICAL
TRANSITION BY TAU 120. POST-RECURVATURE TRACK SPEEDS AMONG MODEL
SOLUTIONS CONTINUE TO VARY SIGNIFICANTLY. THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK
REMAINS CONSISTENT WITH MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS IN THE EXTENDED
PERIOD. HOWEVER, DUE TO UNCERTAINTY IN THE POST-RECURVATURE TRACK
SPEEDS, CONFIDENCE IN THE EXTENDED TRACK FORECAST IS LOW.//

1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
TROPICAL STORM 25W (WIPHA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 363 NM WEST-
NORTHWEST OF NAVSTA GUAM, HAS TRACKED NORTHWESTWARD AT 09
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL
SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS DEEP CONVECTION CONTINUING TO CONSOLIDATE
AROUND THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A 112223Z SSMI-S
MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICTS A BROAD BAND OF DEEP CONVECTION WRAPPING
INTO THE LLCC FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND DEEP CONVECTION IS BEGINNING TO
WRAP AROUND THE NORTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE WITH SOME FRAGMENTATION. THE
CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON AN EXTRAPOLATION FROM THE
AFOREMENTIONED MICROWAVE IMAGE AND HAS BEEN VERIFIED BY A MORE
RECENT 120006Z AMSU-B PASS. THE CURRENT INTENSITY IS SLIGHTLY HIGHER
THAN DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM ALL REPORTING AGENCIES BASED ON THE
IMPROVING CORE STRUCTURE. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES FAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS REMAIN IN PLACE, WITH LOW (5 TO 10 KTS)
NORTHEASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, AND STRONG RADIAL OUTFLOW
OBSERVED IN ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY. POLEWARD OUTFLOW IS ALSO
BEING ENHANCED BY A TUTT CELL TO THE NORTHEAST. FURTHER IMPROVEMENT
IS EXPECTED AS A WEAK TUTT CELL IS COMPLETING ITS TRANSITION OVER
THE NORTHERN SEMICIRCLE OF THE SYSTEM. SOME UPPER-LEVEL CONVERGENCE
CAN STILL BE SEEN OVER THE NORTHWESTERN QUADRANT BUT OVERALL OUTFLOW
IS IMPROVING. THE CURRENT POSITION WIND RADII HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED
BASED ON A TIMELY 120006Z ASCAT PASS. TS 25W IS TRACKING ALONG THE
SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE DEEP-LAYERED SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR)
TO THE NORTHEAST.

INTENSIFICATION TO A PEAK INTENSITY OF 110 KNOTS BY TAU 48.
INTENSITY GUIDANCE SUGGESTS A HIGH LIKELIHOOD OF RAPID
INTENSIFICATION WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS AND FORECAST INTENSITY
REFLECTS THIS WITH A 30-KNOT INCREASE FROM 60 KNOTS UP TO 90 KNOTS
BY TAU 24. DURING TAUS 36-72, TS 25W SHOULD CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY AT
A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE BUT THE POSSIBILITY OF FURTHER RAPID
INTENSIFICATION STILL EXISTS. DYNAMICAL TRACK GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO
BE IN GOOD AGREEMENT, AND THE CURRENT FORECAST LIES CLOSE TO THE
MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS. BASED ON THE STRAIGHTFORWARD STEERING
ENVIRONMENT AND AGREEMENT AMONG THE NUMERICAL MODELS, FORECAST TRACK
CONFIDENCE DURING THIS PERIOD IS HIGH.
