REMARKS:
170900Z POSITION NEAR 25.1N 130.0E.
TROPICAL STORM (TS) 18W (ROKE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 145 NM
SOUTHEAST OF KADENA AB, JAPAN, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT 03 KTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY
SHOWS INCREASED DEEP CONVECTION TIGHTLY WRAPPING INTO THE LOW LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER. THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON A RADAR
REFLECTIVITY LOOP FROM OKINAWA. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS BASED ON
DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM PGTW, RJTD AND KNES RANGING FROM 45 TO 65 KTS.
UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE SYSTEM IS TO THE SOUTH OF A RIDGE
AXIS IN AN AREA OF LIGHT (05-10 KT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS).
ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS AN OUTFLOW CHANNEL HAS DEVELOPED
TO THE NORTHEAST AND EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW REMAINS ROBUST. TS 18W IS
CURRENTLY EMBEDDED IN A COL AREA BETWEEN TWO STEERING INFLUENCES - A
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) EXTENDING FROM CENTRAL EASTERN CHINA AND A
DEEP-LAYERED STR EAST OF JAPAN. RECENT STORM MOTION SUGGESTS THE
RIDGE EAST OF JAPAN HAS, FOR THE MOMENT, REGAINED CONTROL OF THE
SYSTEM. TS 18W IS EXPECTED TO MEANDER WEAKLY IN THE COL AREA OVER
THE NEXT 48 HOURS BEFORE TURNING NORTHEASTWARD AND BEGINNING EXTRA-
TROPICAL TRANSITION. IT IS EXPECTED TO SLOWLY INTENSIFY OVER THE
NEXT 3 DAYS DUE TO GOOD OUTFLOW, LOW VWS, AND HIGH SEA SURFACE
TEMPERATURES. THE AVAILABLE NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD
AGREEMENT WITH THE EVENTUAL RECURVATURE TO THE NORTHEAST BUT SHOW
DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS OF LOOPING NORTHWARD. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE
HEIGHT AT 170600Z IS 16 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 171500Z, 172100Z,
180300Z AND 180900Z. REFER TO TROPICAL STORM 19W (SONCA) WARNINGS
(WTPN32 PGTW) FOR SIX-HOURLY UPDATES.//
