REMARKS:
100300Z POSITION NEAR 10.0S 170.6E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 678 NM
NORTHWEST OF SUVA, FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 04 KNOTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY
DEPICTS A RAPIDLY CONSOLIDATING LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC)
WITH A CENTRAL DENSE OVERCAST FEATURE PERSISTING OVER THE CENTER. A
092157Z MHS METOP-B 89 GHZ IMAGE DEPICTS DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING
WRAPPING TIGHTLY INTO THE LLCC WITH A DEFINED CENTER, THEREFORE,
THERE IS GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE CURRENT POSITION. THE CURRENT
INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 65 KNOTS BASED ON DVORAK ESTIMATES OF 65
KNOTS (T4.0) FROM BOTH KNES AND PGTW. TC 17P IS TRACKING SLOWLY
SOUTHWARD ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AND
IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE TRACKING SOUTHWARD THROUGH TAU 72 THEN THE
SYSTEM SHOULD RE-CURVE SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD AS IT ENCOUNTERS A DEEP
SHORTWAVE TROUGH. DYNAMIC GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT, THEREFORE,
THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK. TC 17P IS
FORECAST TO RAPIDLY INTENSIFY THROUGH TAU 48 DUE TO IMPROVING
POLEWARD OUTFLOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE
TROUGH. AFTER TAU 72, TC 17P SHOULD WEAKEN AS IT ENCOUNTERS THE
TROUGH AND INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO
BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) BY TAU 96 AND SHOULD COMPLETE
ETT NEAR TAU 120. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 100000Z IS 23
FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 101500Z AND 110300Z.//

Technically T4.5 is 77 knots.
ADT remains stuck at 4.0, likely due to lack of microwave eye. When that appears, CMISS be adjusted upwards to T4.6 or T4.8. However, the JTWC and FMS ADT should not change much for a while, maybe until an eye pops out.

REMARKS:
101500Z POSITION NEAR 10.8S 170.2E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 651 NM
NORTHWEST OF SUVA, FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 04
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED IR IMAGERY DEPICTS
TC 17P CONTINUES TO DEEPEN AND BECOME LARGER. A 101127Z TRMM SHOWS
THAT THE DEEPEST CONVECTION IS LOCATED ON THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF
A CONCEALED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER. LOCATION IS BASED ON THE
ABOVE MICROWAVE IMAGERY WITH FAIR CONFIDENCE. INTENSITY IS BASED ON
DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM ALL REPORTING AGENCIES. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS
CONTINUES TO SHOW THE SYSTEM WITH FAVORABLE RADIAL OUTFLOW AND
MODERATE (10 TO 20 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE TC PAM IS
CURRENTLY TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF AN EXTENSION OF A
SUB-TROPICAL RIDGE ANCHORED FAR TO THE EAST. EXPECT THE SYSTEM TO
CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY AND TRACK SLOWLY SOUTHWARD OVER THE NEXT 72
HOURS, REACHING A PEAK INTENSITY OF 140 KNOTS AS THE UPPER LEVEL
ENVIRONMENT AS WELL AS OCEAN HEAT CONTENT REMAINS FAVORABLE FOR
CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT. BEYOND TAU 72, TC PAM WILL BEGIN TO BE
ENTRENCHED IN THE MID-LATITUDE WESTERLIES, BECOMING EXTRA-TROPICAL
IN NATURE BY THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. DYNAMIC NUMERICAL
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO BE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT, WITH ONLY SOME
SLIGHT DISAGREEMENT IN THE TRACK OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS, WITH THE
OVERALL TRACK CONTINUING IN A SOUTHWARD DIRECTION. AS SUCH, THERE IS
GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK WHICH IS LAID CLOSE TO
THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT
101200Z IS 28 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 110300Z AND 111500Z.//

It is going to take time for an eye to clear out due to the large CDO. It will happen though IMO.

SAB and SSD are 4.5, CPHC is 5.0. Supports 80 knots, though ADT is lower.
