SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT 250821Z DEC 02//
RMKS/
1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN
120 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 10.2S3 179.9W6 TO 11.6S8 176.0E4
WITHIN THE NEXT 06 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 25 TO 30 KNOTS. METSAT IMAGERY AT
250530Z5 INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 10.6S7
178.9E5. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 12 KNOTS.
2. REMARKS:
THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 9.1S0 178.8W4 HAS
BEEN RELOCATED NEAR 10.6S7 178.9E5, APPROXIMATELY 340 NM NORTH OF
THE FIJI ISLANDS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED AND MULTISPECTRAL
SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES CYCLIC, BUT ORGANIZED, DEEP CONVECTION
WITH INCREASED POLEWARD OUTFLOW. THE 200 MB ANALYSIS DEPICTS WEAK
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND GOOD DIFFLUENCE ALOFT OVER THE REGION.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 20 TO 25 KNOTS.
MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE 1003 MB. BASED ON THE
INCREASED OUTFLOW AND ORGANIZATION OF THE SYSTEM, THE POTENTIAL FOR
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24
HOURS IS UPGRADED TO GOOD.
3. THIS ALERT WILL BE REISSUED, UPGRADED TO WARNING OR CANCELLED BY
260830Z9.//

SATELLITE CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 155 KNOTS. SATELLITE
IMAGERY SHOWS A 26 NM EYE FEATURE AS THE SYSTEM REMAINS A VERY
STRONG STORM. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO TRACK WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD FOR
THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS ALONG THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE LOW TO MID-
LEVEL SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE. AN APPROACHING MID-LEVEL TROUGH
SHOULD CREATE A WEAKNESS SOUTH OF THE CYCLONE RESULTING IN A
POLEWARD TURN AFTER 24 HOURS. TC 06P IS EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN
INTENSITY THROUGH MID-PERIOD. IT SHOULD WEAKEN LATE IN THE PERIOD AS
IT BECOMES SHEARED BY THE APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL WESTERLIES. THE
DYNAMIC AIDS CONSISTING OF UK MET GLOBAL (EGRR), NGPS, NCEP AVIATION
(AVN), AFWA MM5, AUSTRALIAN BOM TCLAPS AND TLAPS MODELS ARE IN GOOD
AGREEMENT WITH THIS SCENARIO. OUR FORECAST IS BASED ON PERSISTENCE
AND A CONSENSUS OF ALL THE AVAILABLE DYNAMIC AIDS. MAXIMUM
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 280000Z0 IS 37 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
281500Z6 AND 290300Z4.//

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06P (ZOE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 200 NM
NORTHEAST OF VANUATU, HAS TRACKED WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 03 KNOTS
DURING THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED ON 281130Z5
ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS BASED
ON SATELLITE CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 140 AND 155 KNOTS.
ANIMATED SATELLITE RECENT MICROWAVE IMAGERY SHOWS A 20 NM EYE
FEATURE REMAINS. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO TRACK SOUTHWESTWARD FOR
THE NEXT 12 HOURS. A MID-LEVEL TROUGH CREATING A WEAKNESS IN THE
SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE TO THE SOUTH OF THE CYCLONE WILL RESULT
IN A POLEWARD TURN AFTER 12 HOURS. TC 06P IS EXPECTED TO ONLY SLOWLY
WEAKEN IN INTENSITY THROUGH MID-PERIOD. TC 06P IS FORECAST TO WEAKEN
MORE SIGNIFICANTLY LATE IN THE PERIOD AS IT BEGINS TO INTERACT WITH
THE APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL WESTERLIES. THE DYNAMIC AIDS CONSISTING
OF UK MET GLOBAL (EGRR), NGPS, NCEP AVIATION (AVN), AFWA MM5,
AUSTRALIAN BOM TCLAPS AND TLAPS MODELS ARE IN ONLY MARGINAL
AGREEMENT, WITH TLAPS AND TCLAPS BIASED TOWARDS THE WEST AND EAST
RESPECTIVELY. THE REMAINING DYNAMIC AIDS ALL AGREE ON THE GENERAL
TRACK, BUT DIFFER SLIGHTLY IN THE LATE PERIOD DUE TO DIFFERENCES IN

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06P (ZOE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 550 NM
WEST-NORTHWEST OF FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEAST AT 03 KNOTS
DURING THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED ON 282330Z8
ENHANCED INFRARED AND VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY AS WELL AS SSM/I
PASSES. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS BASED ON DVORAK CURRENT INTENSITY
ESTIMATES OF 6.0/6.5 (115/127 KTS). WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND TC 06P'S
PAST 12 HOUR PERSISTENCE INDICATE THAT A BAROCLINIC SYSTEM, MOVING
TOWARD NEW CALEDONIA, HAS BEGUN TO INFLUENCE THE STEERING
ENVIRONMENT. EXPECT A SOUTHEASTWARD MOTION THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF
THE PERIOD. NWP ALL INDICATE MOVEMENT WITHIN THE NORTHWESTERLIES.
HOWEVER, GFS, TLAPS, AND THE UKMET SPECTRAL SHOW A TURN MORE TO THE
SOUTHWEST IN RESPONSE TO AN INCREASING VERTICAL SHEAR ENVIRONMENT.
OUR FORECAST IS BASED ON AN NWP CONSENSUS WITH MORE WEIGHT ON THE
NOGAPS, GFDN AND AFWA MM5 SOLUTIONS. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT
AT 290000Z1 IS 35 FEET. REFER TO WWPW30 RJTX 290000 FOR FURTHER SEA

REMARKS:
310300Z7 POSITION NEAR 16.7S4 173.4E5.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06P (ZOE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 255 NM WEST-
NORTHWEST OF FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT 05 KNOTS DURING THE
PAST SIX HOURS. THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED ON 302330Z1 MULTI-
SPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS BASED ON DVORAK
CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 4.0/4.5 (65 KTS/77 KTS) AND A RECENT
QUIKSCAT PASS INDICATING MAXIMUM WINDS NEAR 50 KNOTS. ANIMATED
SATELLITE IMAGERY REVEALS THAT THE DEEP CONVECTION HAS SIGNIFICANTLY
DIMINISHED OVER THE PAST TWELVE HOURS DUE TO COOL, DRY AIR
ENTRAINMENT. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO COMPLETE EXTRATROPICAL
TRANSITION IN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. TC 06P SHOULD CONTINUE
ON A GENERALLY SOUTHWARD TRACK THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. OUR
FORECAST IS BASED ON A CONSENSUS OF GFDN, NOGAPS, THE AFWA MESOSCALE
(MM5), AND UKMET GLOBAL. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 310000Z4
IS 17 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 311500Z0 AND 010300Z4.//

REMARKS:
010300Z4 POSITION NEAR 20.6S8 174.8E0.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06P (ZOE), LOCATED OVER THE SOUTHWEST PACIFIC
OCEAN, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 08 KNOTS DURING THE
PAST SIX HOURS. THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED ON 312330Z2 ENHANCED
INFRARED AND VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS
BASED ON DVORAK CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 3.0 (45 KTS). VISIBLE
AND WATER VAPOR ANIMATION DEPICT MULTI-LAYERED CLOUDINESS OVER THE
SOUTH QUADRANT AS WELL AS INDICATIONS OF WARM FRONTOGENESIS. THE
NORTH QUADRANT, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF A FEW WEAK CLOUD LINES, IS NOW
DEEP CONVECTION FREE. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS POLAR FINGER JET
SUPPORT TO THE WEST OF THE EXPOSED SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM SHOULD
CONTINUE ON A SOUTHWARD TRACK WITHIN THE STEERING ENVIRONMENT
CREATED BY A LOW/MID RIDGE EXTENDING EQUATORWARD FROM NEW ZEALAND.
MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 010000Z1 IS 12 FEET. REFER TO
WWPW30 RJTX 010000 FOR FURTHER SEA HEIGHT INFORMATION. THIS IS THE
FINAL WARNING ON THIS SYSTEM BY THE JOINT TYPHOON WARNING CENTER
(NAVPACMETOCCEN). THE SYSTEM WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR SIGNS OF
REGENERATION.//
