Re: WPAC: NEPARTAK - Typhoon
The deepest red on this image correspond to white on Dvorák imagery, -70*C. Too bad there aren't any colder layers, but it's what we have right now.

As of 12Z, JMA is up to 85 kt (CI 5.5) with strengthening forecasted to 100 kt (T 6.5) by hour 48.

JTWC seems to have neglected the T7.0 estimate and gone with 120 kt at 12Z.

Re: WPAC: NEPARTAK - Typhoon
They'll probably site SSD's 6.0 and rapid increases in T# and then say they're going with a blend, which is fine with me. Even when breaking constraints, a jump from 85 kt (which admittedly was likely a little low) to 130-140 kt in one advisory is just way too much. Not even Wilma/Haiyan/Parricia did stuff quite like that.

Re: WPAC: NEPARTAK - Typhoon
Satellite imagery is available again on SSD and RAMMB websites.
Btw, the BD imagery on FNMOC seems a bit abnormal to me.

That's a very tight core, must be approaching super level if not already.
I think this might peak sooner than forecast

Re: WPAC: NEPARTAK - Typhoon
Nepartak's environment was pinpointed as quite a favorable one a few days ago, and conditions have not disappointed.

JTWC forecasting 140 kt within 24 hours.
WDPN31 PGTW 051500
MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI//
SUBJ/PROGNOSTIC REASONING FOR TYPHOON 02W (NEPARTAK)
WARNING NR 11//
RMKS//
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
TYPHOON 02W (NEPARTAK), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 821 NM EAST-
SOUTHEAST OF TAIPEI, TAIWAN, HAS TRACKED WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 18
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE CURRENT POSITION IS BASED, WITH
HIGH CONFIDENCE, ON SATELLITE EYE FIXES FROM PGTW AND RJTD. RECENT
DVORAK SATELLITE INTENSITY ESTIMATES FROM PGTW, KNES, AND RJTD
INDICATE THAT TY 02W HAS UNDERGONE VERY RAPID INTENSIFICATION OVER
THE PAST SIX HOURS, TO A CURRENT ESTIMATED INTENSITY OF 120 KNOTS.
PASSAGE OVER VERY WARM WATER, LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, AND FAVORABLE
OUTFLOW ENHANCED BY AN UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH TO THE NORTHWEST ARE
SUPPORTING THE RAPID INTENSIFICATION TREND. TY 02W CONTINUES TO
TRACK QUICKLY NORTHWESTWARD ALONG THE PERIPHERY OF AN EXTENSIVE DEEP-
LAYERED SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE.
3. FORECAST REASONING.
A. FORECAST INTENSITIES HAVE BEEN INCREASED IN THE NEAR-TERM
BASED ON THE OBSERVED RATE OF RAPID INTENSIFICATION.
B. TY 02W IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TRACKING GENERALLY
NORTHWESTWARD TOWARD TAIWAN ALONG THE PERIPHERY OF THE SUBTROPICAL
STEERING RIDGE OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS. STEADY TO RAPID
INTENSIFICATION IS ANTICIPATED IN THE NEAR-TERM AS ENVIRONMENTAL
CONDITIONS REMAIN FAVORABLE. SOME WEAKENING MAY OCCUR PRIOR TO
LANDFALL AS OUTFLOW DECREASES IN RESPONSE TO CHANGES IN THE UPPER-
LEVEL FLOW PATTERN. BY TAU 72, TY 02W WILL BEGIN TO ROUND THE
STEERING RIDGE PERIPHERY AND WEAKEN FURTHER DUE TO LAND INTERACTION.
NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE REMAINS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE OVERALL
FORECAST SCENARIO WITHIN THE 72 HOUR FORECAST PERIOD, LENDING HIGH
CONFIDENCE TO THAT PORTION OF THE TRACK FORECAST.
C. IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD, TY 02W IS EXPECTED TO ROUND THE
STEERING RIDGE AXIS AND TRACK POLEWARD OVER THE EASTERN COAST OF
CHINA. LAND INTERACTION, INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, AND PASSAGE
OVER COOLER WATER WILL RESULT IN STEADY WEAKENING DURING THIS
PERIOD. NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT REGARDING THE OVERALL
FORECAST SCENARIO, ALTHOUGH THERE REMAINS SIGNIFICANT SPREAD IN THE
LOCATION AND TIMING OF THE TRACK AROUND THE RIDGE PERIPHERY. GIVEN
THIS SPREAD IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE
EXTENDED FORECAST TRACK.//

In terms of actual intensity, I'd estimate around 135 knots now.

Looks like a typical category 5 now. Personally I would go with 145 kt at 18Z. Would like to see the WMG eye persist before going higher.
