Re: WPAC: Invest 99W
NAVGEM keeps this in the CPAC where it gets the name Pali and has a hurricane possibly entering the WPAC.
CMC is close either Nepartak or Pali and isn't aggressive as past runs but brings it over Micronesia and close to Guam.

Re: WPAC: Invest 99W
Interestingly, EURO has a LPA near where 99W is now but doesn't develop anything for the next 10 days until this develops.

Re: WPAC: Invest 99W
Looks like GFS has calmed a bit. Has a TS but weakens to a LPA as it enters the WPAC.
Doesn't develop it much.

Re: WPAC: Invest 99W
Interesting discussion of the Coriolis effect and invest 99W from Chaser Josh.
And now for the weirdest tropical weather story of 2015: We have this peculiar low straddling the equator (black line), a little E of the International Date Line. A couple of days ago, it was centered just S of the equator with distinct *anticyclonic* rotation, and one computer model analyzed winds near 35 knots. It's since inched *above* the equator (to about 1 degree N), and it's still rotating the same way—but now that's called *cyclonic*. This is kind of weird, because conventional wisdom says 1) tropical cyclones can't form at the equator and 2) they have to turn clockwise S of the equator and counterclockwise N of the equator. But this sassy little system is breaking the "rules" and making a mockery of the Coriolis effect—and all we can do is sit here and angrily watch. grin emoticon Yes, this system has abused and disrespected the very notion that a cyclone's rotation is 100% the result of the Coriolis effect, reminding us it's all more complicated than that. Anyhoo, it's expected to move slowly NW and it may develop a little.

Re: WPAC: Invest 99W
The Coriolis effect is minimal (to zero) the closer a tropical cyclone is to the Equator. ASCAT indicates a TS with 40kt winds as of late yesterday afternoon.

Re: WPAC: Invest 99W
Update from JTWC mantains the low probability in next 24 hours.
THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 1.0N 178.0E
IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 1.0N 177.0W, APPROXIMATELY 1015 NM EAST-
SOUTHEAST OF KWAJALEIN ATOLL. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY DEPICTS A CONSOLIDATING LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
EMBEDDED WITHIN AN EXTENSIVE, IMPRESSIVE AREA OF DEEP CONVECTION
ASSOCIATED WITH A STRONG WESTERLY WIND BURST EVENT. A 290345Z SSMIS
91GHZ IMAGE SHOWS FRAGMENTED CONVECTIVE BANDING OVER THE NORTHWEST
QUADRANT OF A POORLY-DEFINED LLCC. RECENT ASCAT DATA AND LIMITED
SURFACE OBSERVATIONS INDICATE 20 TO 30 KNOT NORTHERLY TO
NORTHWESTERLY WINDS OVER THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE SYSTEM. UPPER-
LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A MARGINALLY-FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH
MODERATE EASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR OFFSET BY STRONG DIFFLUENCE.
WHILE GLOBAL MODELS GENERALLY STRENGTHEN THE SYSTEM AS IT TRACKS
SLOWLY NORTHWARD, THERE IS A WIDE DISPARITY IN THE EXACT TRACK AND
TIMING WHEN THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO CROSS WEST OF THE DATELINE.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 10 TO 15 KNOTS.
MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1003 MB. THE
POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS REMAINS LOW.

99W and its southern hemisphere twin are certainly looking good right now.

The world's most active basin doing it again now teasing us with this last storm.
I'm thinking it might get the CPAC name Pali which is quite a coincidence since the last storm of 1997 also ended with a P in Paka which ravaged Micronesia and the Marianas.
Last or first storm for 2015 or 2016 for the basin and the hemisphere, it's great to watch. Something to keep me distracted from the coming New Years.

Considering that JTWC has issued every outlook on this system regardless of which side if the Dateline it has been on, I think they'll end up issuing all advisories on it too. Now, naming is something else entirely, since JTWC isn't an RSMC and it is outside JMA's area of responsibility.
