RMKS/
1. WESTERN NORTH PACIFIC AREA (180 TO MALAY PENINSULA):
A. TROPICAL CYCLONE SUMMARY: NONE.
B. TROPICAL DISTURBANCE SUMMARY:
(1) AN AREA OF CONVECTION (INVEST 92W) HAS PERSISTED NEAR 3.2N
160.4E, APPROXIMATELY 267 NM SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF POHNPEI. ANIMATED
ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY AND AN 181453Z AMSR2 89 GHZ
MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT A CONSOLIDATING LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER WITH
FORMATIVE BANDING AND PERSISTENT DEEP CONVECTION. AN 181130Z ASCAT-B
IMAGE SHOWS AN ELONGATED, DEFINED CENTER WITH PREDOMINANTLY 10-15 KNOT
WINDS. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT 92W IS IN A FAVORABLE AREA WITH
LOW (05-10KT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, GOOD DIVERGENCE ALOFT, AND WARM (29-
30C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES. GLOBAL MODELS INDICATE A NORTH-
NORTHWESTWARD TRACK OVER THE NEXT TWO DAYS BUT ARE SPLIT ON DEVELOPMENT
WITH NAVGEM THE MOST AGGRESSIVE AND GFS WEAKER. ECMWF AND NAVGEM DEVELOP
A TROPICAL DEPRESSION OVER THE NEXT TWO TO THREE DAYS. 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 MEDIUM.
(2) NO OTHER SUSPECT AREAS.
C. SUBTROPICAL SYSTEM SUMMARY: NONE.
2. SOUTH PACIFIC AREA (WEST COAST OF SOUTH AMERICA TO 135 EAST):
A. TROPICAL CYCLONE SUMMARY: NONE.
B. TROPICAL DISTURBANCE SUMMARY: NONE.
C. SUBTROPICAL SYSTEM SUMMARY: NONE.
3. JUSTIFICATION FOR REISSUE: ADDED MEDIUM IN PARA. 1.B.(1).//

This would be a very interesting low altitude 160E'er if the GFS hype during 91W was true

[cycloneye]

Wow, looks good.

[Yellow Evan]

Likely a weak TD right now. It has about 2-3 days before westerly shear gets to it.

SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT (INVEST 92W)//
RMKS/
1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN
125 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 3.7N 159.9E TO 9.0N 156.6E
WITHIN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AVAILABLE DATA DOES NOT JUSTIFY
ISSUANCE OF NUMBERED TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNINGS AT THIS TIME.
WINDS IN THE AREA ARE ESTIMATED TO BE 20 TO 25 KNOTS. METSAT
IMAGERY AT 190100Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED
NEAR 3.9N 159.8E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING NORTH-NORTHWESTWARD AT 05
KNOTS.
2. REMARKS:
THE AREA OF CONVECTION (INVEST 92W) PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 3.2N 160.4E
IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 3.9N 159.8E, APPROXIMATELY 206 NM SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF
POHNPEI. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY AND AN 182005Z SSMIS
91 GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT CURVED DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING
INTO A WELL DEFINED AND CONSOLIDATED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER. UPPER
LEVEL ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT 92W IS IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH LOW
(05-10KT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, GOOD DIVERGENCE ALOFT, AND WARM (29-30C)
SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES. GLOBAL MODELS INDICATE A NORTH-NORTHWESTWARD
TO NORTHWESTWARD TRACK OVER THE NEXT TWO DAYS BUT ARE SPLIT ON
DEVELOPMENT WITH ECMWF AND GFS DEVELOPING A TROPICAL DEPRESSION IN THE
NEXT ONE TO TWO DAYS AND NAVGEM INDICATING WEAKER DEVELOPMENT. MAXIMUM
SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 20 TO 25 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA
LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1005 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS
IS HIGH.

18z not much looking forward to in the long range unless it's a sleeper. First HWRF run also not hype.

SUBJ/PROGNOSTIC REASONING FOR TROPICAL DEPRESSION 01W (ONE) WARNING NR
001//
RMKS/
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.

SUMMARY:
INITIAL POSITION: 4.8N 158.4E
INITIAL INTENSITY: 25 KTS
GEOGRAPHIC REFERENCE: 127 NM SOUTH OF POHNPEI
MOVEMENT PAST 6 HOURS: WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 09 KTS
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT: 10 FEET

SATELLITE ANALYSIS, INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY DISCUSSION:
ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED (EIR) SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS A
MEDIUM-SIZED SYSTEM WITH SHALLOW, FRAGMENTED FORMATIVE BANDING
FEEDING IN FROM ALL QUADRANTS INTO THE DEEP CENTRAL CONVECTION THAT
IS OBSCURING THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION. THE INITIAL POSITION IS
PLACED WITH LOW CONFIDENCE BASED ON LOW-CLOUD TRACING IN THE EIR
LOOP AND EXTRAPOLATION FROM THE CURRENT STORM MOTION. THE INITIAL
INTENSITY IS ASSESSED WITH MEDIUM CONFIDENCE BASED ON OVERALL
ASSESSMENT OF AGENCY DVORAK ESTIMATES AND REFLECTS THE IMPROVED
6-HR CONVECTIVE SIGNATURE. ANALYSIS INDICATES A FAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENT WITH LOW VWS, MODERATE RADIAL OUTFLOW, AND WARM SST.

INITIAL WIND RADII BASIS: NOT APPLICABLE (THERE ARE NO INITIAL WIND
RADII).

CURRENT STEERING MECHANISM: LOW- TO MID-LAYER SUBTROPICAL RIDGE
(STR) TO THE NORTHEAST

AGENCY DVORAK AND AUTOMATED FIXES:
PGTW: T2.0 - 30 KTS
RJTD: T1.5 - 25 KTS
KNES: T1.5 - 25 KTS

FORECASTER ASSESSMENT OF CURRENT ENVIRONMENT: FAVORABLE
VWS: 0-5 KTS
SST: 29-30 CELSIUS
OUTFLOW: MODERATE RADIAL

ANALYSIS CONFIDENCE:
INITIAL POSITION: LOW
INITIAL INTENSITY: MEDIUM
INITIAL WIND RADII: NOT APPLICABLE

3. FORECAST REASONING.

SIGNIFICANT FORECAST CHANGES: THIS INITIAL PROGNOSTIC REASONING
MESSAGE ESTABLISHES THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY.

FORECAST DISCUSSION: TD 01W WILL TRACK GENERALLY NORTHWESTWARD
UNDER THE STEERING STR TOWARD THE DIRECTION OF GUAM. THE FAVORABLE
CONDITIONS WILL FUEL A MODEST INTENSIFICATION TO A PEAK OF 35KTS AT
TAUS 24-36. AFTERWARD, AS THE CYCLONE APPROACHES 10 DEG NORTH
LATITUDE, INCREASING VWS ASSOCIATED WITH STRONG UPPER LEVEL
SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS AND NEAR-SURFACE NORTHEASTERLY DRY AIR INTRUSION
WILL GRADUALLY ERODE THE SYSTEM TOWARD DISSIPATION BY TAU
72.

MODEL DISCUSSION: AVAILABLE NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN LOOSE AGREEMENT
WITH THE NORTHWESTWARD TRACK WITH GFS THE NOTABLE SLOW
RIGHT-OF-TRACK OUTLIER. OTHERWISE, THE MAIN ENVELOPE GRADUALLY
SPREADS OUT TO 128NM BY TAU 72. HOWEVER, GIVEN THE FORMATIVE NATURE
OF THE SYSTEM AND THE HIGH VARIABILITY IN THE INTENSIFICATION,
THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN BOTH THE TRACK AND INTENSITY FORECASTS.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE:
TRACK 0 - 72 HR: LOW
INTENSITY 0 - 72 HR: LOW//
