.EASTERN MICRONESIA...
ASCAT ANALYSIS SHOWS A MONSOON TROUGH EXTENDS ALONG 8N-10N TO THE
NORTH OF POHNPEI...KOSRAE AND MAJURO THROUGH A TROPICAL DISTURBANCE
CENTERED NORTHEAST OF MAJURO AT ABOUT 9N175E. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
A FEW THUNDERSTORMS ARE OVERSPREADING THE MARSHALL ISLANDS THIS
AFTERNOON. MOST MODELS INDICATE THE DISTURBANCE WILL MOVE NORTHWEST
AND FURTHER DEVELOP DURING THE NEXT FEW DAYS. IT WILL BE SLOW
MOVING AND LIKELY TRIGGER ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS AT KOSRAE BY
TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AND POHNPEI MAINLY ON TUESDAY. MAJURO
WEATHER SHOULD START IMPROVING BY THURSDAY.

Looking at the latest but old EURO run, it is likely that this is the area that develops into a big monsoon circulation that spawns twins.

NAVGEM develops this into Mujigae in 78 hours and peaks it at 927 mb in 180 hours. Looks like the far islands of the CNMI will feel the brunt of this monster.

CMC like always develop this into a monster, peaks it at 947 mb but further south than NAVGEM taking it straight to the northern islands of the CNMI.

EURO has Mujigae as a TS in just 120 hours, TY in 168 hours, and peaks it at 961 mb long range with no threat to land. Thankfully.

EURO develops this into a very large powerful monster.

It has a typhoon in just 120 hours, 48 hours earlier than the past run.

Bottoms it out at 893 mb!

Waters in the vicinity of this invest are some of the warmest and deepest the Pacific has to offer. Provided the right atmospheric conditions, a very high intensity storm can develop and be sustained here.

Upgraded to LOW

AN AREA OF CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED NEAR 13.5N 171.0E,
APPROXIMATELY 425 NM SOUTHEAST OF WAKE ISLAND. ANIMATED
MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS AN ELONGATED LOW LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) EMBEDDED WITHIN THE MONSOON TROUGH WITH
WELL-DEFINED MID-LEVEL CYCLONIC TURNING. A 282233Z ASCAT PASS
FURTHER ILLUSTRATED THE ILL-DEFINED NATURE OF THE LLCC; HOWEVER, THE
AREA IS BEING ENHANCED BY A 15 TO 20 KNOT WESTERLY SURGE NEAR 8
DEGREES LATITUDE. THERE IS A FAVORABLE UPPER LEVEL ENVIRONMENT WITH
THE DISTURBANCE UNDER AN UPPER-LEVEL ANTI-CYCLONE PROVIDING VIGOROUS
OUTFLOW AND LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. GLOBAL MODELS SHOW FURTHER
DEVELOPMENT OF THIS DISTURBANCE IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS. MAXIMUM
SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 10 TO 15 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA
LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1008 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24
HOURS IS LOW.

SHOWED MOSTLY DISORGANIZED CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH AN ELONGATED

JMA still very impressive bottoms this to 967 mb as it recurves...

NAVGEM also recurves bottoms at 957 mb.

EURO also recurves and peaks it at 953 mb as it lands over Tokyo.

It's large massive circulation has somewhat slowed it's development and will continue to do so that's why all models are trending weaker.
