WTXS21 PGTW 20060223 03:30z MSGID/GENADMIN/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/JTWC// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT 230321Z FEB 06// RMKS/ 1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN 120 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 9.8S 81.5E TO 11.9S 80.3E WITHIN THE NEXT 12 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 30 TO 35 KNOTS. METSAT IMAGERY AT 230000Z INDI- CATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 10.1S 81.4E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING SOUTHWARD AT 06 KNOTS. 2. REMARKS: AN AREA OF CONVECTION NEAR 10.1S 81.4E, APPROXIMATELY 555 NM EAST-SOUTHEAST OF DIEGO GARCIA, HAS PERSISTED OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY AND A 230032Z SCATTEROMETER PASS REVEAL DEEP CONVECTION OVER A MORE ORGANIZED AND SLIGHTLY ELON- GATED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS THE LLCC IS LOCATED IN A REGION OF WEAK TO MODERATE WIND SHEAR WITH GOOD EQUATORWARD AND POLEWARD OUTFLOW CHANNELS. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE 1001 MB. DUE TO INCREASED OUTFLOW CHANNELS AND A MORE ORGANIZED LLCC, THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS GOOD. 3. THIS ALERT WILL BE REISSUED, UPGRADED TO WARNING OR CANCELLED BY 240330Z.// ========================================================================= TXS32 PGTW 20060223 09:00z MSGID/GENADMIN/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/JTWC// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING/230752ZFEB2006// REF/A/MSG/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/230321ZFEB2006// AMPN/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT// RMKS/ 1.
