REMARKS:
310900Z POSITION NEAR 14.0S 54.9E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06S, LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 440 NM NORTH
OF LA REUNION, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWESTWARD AT 05 KNOTS OVER THE
PAST SIX HOURS. TC 05S IS TRACKING ALONG THE NORTHWESTERN
PERIPHERY OF A LOW- TO MID-LEVEL SUBTROPICAL RIDGE LOCATED
EAST-SOUTHEAST OF THE SYSTEM. THE AVAILABLE DYNAMIC AIDS ARE
IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THIS FORECAST. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL
SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 310228 SSMI IMAGE DEPICT DEEP CON-
VECTION WRAPPING INTO THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF A PREVIOUSLY
EXPOSED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER. TC 06S IS FORECAST TO
INTENSIFY AT A LESS THAN CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE BASED ON PER-
SISTENCE AND AVAILABLE INTENSITY GUIDANCE. THIS WARNING

REMARKS:
312100Z POSITION NEAR 15.8S 54.1E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06S (CLOVIS), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 350 NM NORTH-
NORTHWEST OF LA REUNION, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 09 KNOTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. TC 06S IS TRACKING TOWARDS A WEAKNESS IN THE
RIDGE AXIS CAUSED BY A HIGH AMPLITUDE TROUGH SOUTH OF THE MOZAMBIQUE
CHANNEL. STORM MOTION WILL CONTINUE IN THIS DIRECTION FOR THE NEXT
12 TO 24 HOURS. AFTERWARDS THE PATTERN BECOMES MORE ZONAL, ALLOWING
FOR THE RIDGE TO BUILD FROM THE EAST, SLOW THE STORM SLIGHTLY AND STEER
IT MORE TO THE WEST. THE SYSTEM HAS INTENSFIED IN THE LAST 12 HOURS
DUE TO GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW AND LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THIS TREND
IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE IN THE NEAR TERM. PAST TAU 24, THE BUILDING
RIDGE SHOULD ELIMINATE THIS OUTFLOW CHANNEL AND SLOW THE RATE OF
STRENGTHENING. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 311800Z IS 15 FEET.
NEXT WARNINGS AT 010900Z AND 012100Z.//

010900Z POSITION NEAR 17.7S 52.5E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06S (CLOVIS), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 345
NM EAST-NORTHEAST OF ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR, HAS TRACKED
SOUTHWESTWARD AT 13 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. TC 06S HAS
INTENSIFIED AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE OVER THE PAST 24 HOURS.
THROUGH TAU 24, TC 06S WILL CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY AND TRACK
SOUTHWESTWARD TOWARDS A WEAKNESS IN THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR)
NEAR SOUTHERN MADAGASCAR. AFTER TAU 24, A MIDLATITUDE TROUGH
WILL PASS TO THE SOUTH CAUSING THE STR TO RE-ORIENT AND STEER
TC 06S WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD. FROM THAT POINT, TC 06S WILL WEAKEN
DUE TO RESTRICTED OUTFLOW AND INTERACTION WITH THE TERRAIN OF
MADAGASCAR. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 010600Z IS 15
FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 012100Z AND 020900Z.//

REMARKS:
012100Z POSITION NEAR 19.0S 51.6E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06S (CLOVIS), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 280 NM EAST
OF ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 07
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. TC 06S HAS MAINTAINED ITS CURRENT
INTENSITY OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS, HOWEVER THE CONVECTION ASSOCIATED
WITH THE SYSTEM HAS BECOME MORE CONSOLIDATED OVER THE LOW LEVEL CIRC-
ULATION CENTER (LLCC). OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED
TO INTENSIFY SLOWLY AS GOOD UPPER LEVEL POLEWARD OUTFLOW MAINTAINS.
LANDFALL IS EXPECTED AROUND TAU 36 WHICH WILL LEAD TO A DECREASE IN
INTENSITY AT A GREATER THAN CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE. THE STEERING INFLU-
ENCE FOR THE SYSTEM IS A MID-LEVEL RIDGE BUILDING WESTWARD AS A MID-
LATITUDE TROUGH SOUTH OF MADAGASCAR TRACKS EASTWARD ALLOWING A MORE
ZONAL PATTERN TO ESTABLISH. THIS WILL ALLOW THE TRACK TO BECOME MORE
SOUTHWESTWARD TOWARD MADAGASCAR. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT
011800Z IS 15 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 020900Z AND 022100Z.//

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06S (CLOVIS), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 245 NM
EAST-SOUTHEAST OF ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWEST-
WARD AT 07 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. TC 06S HAS MAINTAINED
INTENSITY OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS. THE SYSTEM IS CURRENTLY TRACKING TOWARD
A COL REGION LOCATED ON THE SOUTHERN TIP OF MADAGASCAR CREATED BY A
TRANSITORY MIDLATITUDE TROUGH. AS THIS TROUGH MOVES EASTWARD WEAK
RIDGING WILL BUILD SOUTH OF THE STORM, CREATING A MORE SOUTHWESTWARD
TRACK THROUGH TAU 36. BEYOND TAU 36, A SECOND MIDLATITUDE TROUGH
APPROACHING FROM THE WEST WILL INDUCE A POLEWARD TURN FOR 06S,
CAUSING THE SYSTEM TO SKIRT THE SOUTHEASTERN COAST OF MADAGASCAR. TC 06S IS
FORECAST TO INTENSIFY AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS DUE TO GOOD RADIAL OUTFLOW AND LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. PAST TAU 24,
INTERACTION WITH THE COAST AND HIGHER VERTICAL WIND SHEAR WILL CON-
TRIBUTE TO WEAKENING. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 020600Z IS
15 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 022100Z AND 030900Z. REFER TO TROPICAL CYCLONE

WESTWARD AT 03 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE SYSTEM HAS
MOVED WESTWARD UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF RIDGING ANCHORED SOUTHEAST
OF MADAGASCAR. THE STORM HAS WEAKENED AS IT CONTINUES TO TRACK
OVER LAND AND INTERACT WITH THE HIGH TERRAIN OF MADAGASCAR.
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR HAS INCREASED AND THE CONVECTION IS DISPLACED
TO THE NORTHEAST OF THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). TC
06S IS FORECAST TO SLOWLY WEAKEN AND DISSIPATE OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS DUE TO LAND INFLUENCES AND MODERATE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR.
THE LLCC IS NOT EXPECTED TO MOVE INLAND MORE THAN 20 NM BEFORE
DISSIPATING. THEREFORE THE POTENTIAL EXISTS THAT TC06S MAY TRACK
BACK OVER WATER ALLOWING REGENERATION OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST OF
MADAGASCAR AFTER TAU 24. NEXT WARNINGS AT 040900Z. REFER TO
TROPICAL CYCLONE  07S (ISOBEL) WARNING (WTXS32 PGTW) FOR THE
FINAL WARNING ON THAT SYSTEM.//

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 06S (CLOVIS), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 130 NM
SOUTHEAST OF ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWESTWARD
AT 01 KNOT OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED AND INFRARED MULTI-
SPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATE THAT TC 06S HAS CONTINUED TO
WEAKEN RAPIDLY DUE TO INTERACTION WITH LAND AND MODERATE VERTICAL
WIND SHEAR. DEEP CONVECTION HAS WARMED SIGNIFICANTLY, BECOME MORE
DISORGANIZED, AND HAS SHEARED NORTHEASTWARD AWAY FROM THE LOW
LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER. TC 06S WILL TRACK SLOWLY SOUTHWESTWARD
AND WILL DISSIPATE BY TAU 12. 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.//
