Watching another western pacific low

#1 Postby Matt-hurricanewatcher » Tue Aug 15, 2006 7:19 pm

The JMA says its 1008 millibars moving slowly westward. It is centered at near 12 north/145 or so west.

Here is a sat pic.

Matt . . . try 145 and 165 east :wink:


IMO, the more interesting one is around 165E. And even though the low is around 10-15N (I believe NOGAPS analyzed a low at 12N at 12Z), the NRL page has 98W up for a location at 3.5N/164E :roll: It looks like there might be a chance down there, but this one to the north is far more interesting.
