MSGID/GENADMIN/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI//
SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT//
RMKS/
1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN
150 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 15.7S 104.0E TO 17.3S 108.8E
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 25 TO 30 KNOTS. METSAT
IMAGERY AT 061800Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED
NEAR 16.0S 104.8E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 07
KNOTS.
2. REMARKS: AN AREA OF CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED NEAR 16.0S 104.8E,
APPROXIMATELY 510 NM EAST-SOUTHEAST OF THE COCOS ISLANDS. RECENT
ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 061537Z AMSU-B PASS
SHOW DEEP CONVECTION PERSISTING ON THE SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF
A WELL-DEFINED LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER. RECENT SCATTEROMETER
DATA REVEAL THAT A BURST OF ENHANCED WESTERLY WINDS ON THE EQUATOR-
WARD SIDE IS AIDING DEVELOPMENT OF THE LOW-LEVEL VORTEX. HOWEVER,
THE PERIPHERAL WINDS OF A UPPER-LEVEL ANTICYCLONE ARE BUFFETING
THIS DISTURBANCE WITH PERSISTENT NORTHEASTERLY VERTICAL WIND
SHEAR. LOW TO MID-LEVEL EASTERLY FLOW ASSOCIATED WITH NEAR-
EQUATORIAL RIDGING IS EXPECTED TO CARRY THIS DISTURBANCE CLOSER TO
THE CENTER OF THIS UPPER-LEVEL ANTICYCLONE OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS,
RESULTING IN DECREASED VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND IMPROVED MULTI-
DIRECTIONAL DIFFLUENCE ALOFT. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE
ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS EST-
IMATED TO BE NEAR 1003 MB. DUE TO THE STRONG LOW-LEVEL SIGNATURE
AND ANTICIPATED IMPROVEMENTS IN UPPER-LEVEL SUPPORT, 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 071930Z.//

REMARKS:
070300Z POSITION NEAR 16.3S 105.5E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17S (NONAME) LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 625 NM WEST-
NORTHWEST OF LEARMONTH, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD AT
06 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. SATELLITE INTENSITY ESTIMATES FROM
PGTW AND KNES HAVE REACHED 35 KNOTS, JUSTIFYING THE INITIAL WARNING
ON THIS SYSTEM. TC 17S REMAINS IN A MODERATE SHEAR ENVIRONMENT, BUT
HAS DEVELOP DEEP CONVECTION OVER THE WELL DEFINED LOW LEVEL CIRC-
ULATION AND HAS GOOD CONVECTIVE BANDING TO THE SOUTH AS DEPICTED IN
A 062208Z SSMI 37 GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE. THE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO
TRACK ALONG THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF A LOW TO MID-LEVEL NEAR-
EQUATORIAL RIDGE TO THE NORTH OF THE SYSTEM THROUGH THE ENTIRE
FORECAST PERIOD. THE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR WILL REMAIN LOW TO MODERATE,
THEREFORE THE STORM WILL ONLY SLOWLY INTENSIFY THROUGHOUT THE FORE-
CAST PERIOD. THE FORECAST IS BASED ON A CONSENSUS OF THE AVAILABLE
DYNAMIC AIDS WHICH ARE IN FAIR AGREEMENT. THIS WARNING SUPERSEDES
AND CANCELS REF A, NAVPACMETOCCEN 061921Z FEB 08 TROPICAL CYCLONE

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17S (NONAME) LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 565 NM WEST-
NORTHWEST OF LEARMONTH, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD AT
04 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. CURRENT INTENSITY IS SUPPORTED BY
SATELLITE INTENSITY ESTIMATES FROM PGTW AND KNES RANGING FROM 30 TO
45 KNOTS. OVER THE LAST 12 HOURS VERTICAL WIND SHEAR HAS INCREASED
OVER TC 17S, HOWEVER THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) REMAINS
WELL DEFINED WITH DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING CONCENTRATED IN THE SOUTH-
WESTERN QUADRANT OF THE SYSTEM AS DEPICTED IN A 071125Z SSMI MICRO-
WAVE IMAGE. THE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO TRACK ALONG THE SOUTHERN PERI-
PHERY OF THE LOW TO MID-LEVEL NEAR-EQUATORIAL RIDGE TO THE NORTH
THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST PERIOD. THE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR WILL REMAIN
MODERATE THROUGH TAU 24 LIMITING INTENSIFICATION IN THE NEAR-TERM,
HOWEVER AFTER TAU 24 SHEAR VALUES ARE EXPECTED TO DECREASE, AND THE
STORM WILL BEGIN TO GRADUALLY INTENSIFY THROUGH TAU 48. THIS FORECAST
IS BASED ON A CONSENSUS OF THE AVAILABLE DYNAMIC AIDS WHICH ARE IN
FAIR AGREEMENT. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 071200Z IS 14
FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 080300Z AND 081500Z. REFER TO TROPICAL CYCLONE

080300Z POSITION NEAR 17.2S 107.1E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17S (NONAME) LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 500 NM
NORTHWEST LEARMONTH, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD AT
06 KNOTS OVER THE PAST 06 HOURS. THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
FOR TC 17S REMAINS WELL DEFINED, BUT PARTIALLY EXPOSED, UNDER
MODERATE TO HIGH VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE MODERATE TO HIGH VERTICAL
WIND SHEAR REMAINS THE PRIMARY INHIBITING FACTOR FOR INTENSIFICATION
FOR TC 17S, AND IS FORECAST TO PREVENT SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT
THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST PERIOD. THE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK
SOUTHEASTWARD UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE NEAR EQUATORIAL RIDGE BEFORE
TURNING TO A MORE NORTHEASTERLY TRACK AFTER TAU 24. THROUGHOUT THE
FORECAST PERIOD THE SYSTEM WILL BE INHIBITED BY THE CURRENT VERTICAL
WIND SHEAR CONDITIONS, HOWEVER IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD (NEAR TAU 72)
SOME LESSENING OF THE WIND SHEAR IS ANTICIPATED, WHICH IN COMBINATION
WITH HIGH SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES SHOULD ALLOW INTENSIFICATION TO
OCCUR. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 080000Z IS 16 FEET. NEXT

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17S (NONAME) LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 455 NM
