Upgraded to medium.

THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 2.0N 144.0E
IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 2.0N 142.0E, APPROXIMATELY 545 NM SOUTHEAST OF
PALAU. ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES PERSISTENT DEEP
CONVECTION WITH FORMATIVE CONVECTIVE BANDING OVER A BROAD LOW-LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A 092006Z SSMIS 37GHZ IMAGE SHOWS
CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING FROM THE SOUTHEAST INTO THE NORTHWEST
QUADRANT OF THE LLCC. A 091220Z ASCAT IMAGE DEPICTS A BROAD
CIRCULATION WITH 15 TO 20 KNOT WINDS OVER THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY.
UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A MARGINALLY-FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT
WITH WEAK VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND WEAK, EASTERLY DIFFLUENCE. 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 UPGRADED TO MEDIUM.

TD

#22 Postby stormkite » Sat Nov 09, 2013 9:03 pm

This TD if it does develop and follow the projected track and does not encounter shear it has the potential to be a very severe typhoon . It will move over the same water that fueled Haiyan to its immense power. The ocean is very warm to deep depths in the projected area and is the ultimate fuel source for typhoons. It would be ludicrous to play down this TD at this early point of time.

I hope not Tacloban! They had enough, Cebu has better infrastructures and less prone to storm surge. We are more prepared but I still hope that the ENTIRE VISAYAS can recover faster.

I wouldn't even sacrifice any areas to be hit instead. Let's hope dry air kills it or maybe the STR lets up and recurve this booger away. Enough lives have been lost.


According to some models though, this could be something Mindanao should keep an eye on. From a mere tropical storm (Washi) to a Category 5 (Bopha), this place has proven to be very vulnerable to tropical cyclone hits.

This is organizing in a fast pace and it has gained latitude as it was almost in the equator when they started to do best track on 90W.

All the global model guidance is not suggesting typhoon strength for this invest when it impacts the Philippines but based on how quickly the invest seems to be spinning up today, still something to watch closely in case it gets stronger than these models are showing.

Even if this doesn't get stronger than a Tropical Storm,it will cause problems in terms of the rescue efforts in the areas affected by Haiyan with the rain it could dump.

I agree. It appears to be steadily worsening in that loop above. Maybe shear is killing it. That's good news!!! I don't think these poor, displaced people can withstand either a wind monster or even a convection monster. Let's hope it doesn't strengthen too much.
