Tropical Disturbance Advisory Number A14 issued from RSMC NADI
Feb 28/0749 UTC 2005 UTC.
TROPICAL CYCLONE PERCY CENTRE [945 hPa] WAS LOCATED NEAR 12.0S 165.4W
AT 280600 UTC. POSITION POOR BASED ON GOES-9 EIR/VIS IMAGERY WITH
ANIMATION AND 280554Z SSM/I DATA. CYCLONE MOVING SOUTH-SOUTHEAST AT
ABOUT 08 KNOTS AND EXPECTED TO TURN SOUTH. 10-MINUTE AVERAGE WINDS
ESTIMATED AT 85 KNOTS CLOSE TO THE CENTRE, DECREASING TO 80 KNOTS
WITHIN 12 TO 24 HOURS. EXPECT WINDS OVER 63 KNOTS WITHIN 30 MILES OF
CENTRE, OVER 47 KNOTS WITHIN 60 MILES OF CENTRE AND OVER 33 KNOTS
WITHIN 120 MILES OF CENTRE.
DEEP CONVECTION RE-ORGANISED OVER CDO WITH CLOUD PATTERN BECOMING
MORE SYMMETRICAL PAST 3 HOURS. SUGGESTION OF AN EYE [RE-APPEARING] IN
EIR IMAGERY. DVORAK ANALYSIS BASED ON CENTRE EMBD IN WHITE OR COLDER,
YIELDING DT=5.0. MET=5.0, PAT=4.5, FT BASED ON DT:
T5.0/5.0/W1.0/24HRS. PERCY REMAINS IN A STRONG DIFFLUENT REGION.
OUTFLOW IS GOOD IN MOST QUADRANTS AND ENHANCED BY A JET ENTRANCE
REGION TO THE SOUTHEAST. CYCLONE EXPECTED TO TURN SOUTH THEN
ACCELERATE TOWARDS THE SOUTHEAST AFTER 48 HOURS AS A DEEP TROUGH
APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. FURTHER INTENSIFICATION BEYOND 24 HOURS
UNLIKELY, DUE TO INCREASING SHEAR. GLOBAL MODELS CONSISTENTLY
FORECAST A TURN TO THE SOUTH AND GRADUAL WEAKENING.

AT 12 HRS VALID AT 281800 UTC 13.3S 164.9W MOV SSE AT 07 KT WITH 85

ACCELERATE SOUTHEASTWARDS IN THE NEXT 24 TO 36 HOURS IN RESPONSE TO
AN APPROACHING UPPER TROUGH FROM THE WEST. GLOBAL MODELS CONSISTENTLY
FORECAST SOUTHWARD MOVEMENT THEN ACCELERATION TOWARDS THE SOUTHEAST.

Awesome loop... but I'm only posting the link. It's a killer, sizewise.

It seems he's been weakening, then strengthening, then weakening, then strengthening.......
Certainly strengthend today:
DATE/TIME LAT LON CLASSIFICATION STORM
01/2022 UTC 15.3S 165.2W T6.5/6.5 PERCY -- South Pacific Ocean
01/1422 UTC 14.3S 164.9W T6.0/6.0 PERCY -- South Pacific Ocean
01/0752 UTC 13.6S 165.3W T5.0/5.5 PERCY -- South Pacific Ocean
And now 7.5. Guys, I'm tempted to say that Percy is now a 155 knots or 180 mph tropical cyclone based on the latest Dvorak estimates, which are certainly visible in the satellite images. THIS IS A BIG ONE.

The only other South Pacific cyclone to reach that intensity was Cyclone Zoe in 2002!
