SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT 282351ZNOV06//
RMKS/
1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN
080 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 9.9S 43.6E TO 11.3S 40.9E WITH-
IN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AVAILABLE DATA DOES NOT JUSTIFY IS-
SUANCE OF NUMBERED TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNINGS AT THIS TIME. WINDS
IN THE AREA ARE ESTIMATED TO BE 25 TO 30 KNOTS. METSAT IMAGERY AT
281800Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 10.2S
42.9E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 11 KNOTS.
2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 9.8S
44.4E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 10.2S 42.9E, APPROXIMATELY 580 NM
NORTH-NORTHWEST OF ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR. ANIMATED INFRARED
SATELLITE IMAGERY REVEALS INCREASED CONVECTION OVER THE LOW-LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER AND BANDING WRAPPING INTO THE CENTER ON THE
NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN PERIPHERIES OF THE DISTURBANCE. UPPER LEVEL
ANALYSIS INDICATES AN ANTICYCLONE ALOFT OF THE DISTURBANCE
CONTRIBUTING TO GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW AND LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30 KNOTS.
MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1002 MB. DUE
THE DEVELOPMENT OF CONVECTION AROUND THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION
CENTER, 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 300000Z.//

REMARKS:
291500Z POSITION NEAR 11.1S 41.7E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 03S, LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 570 NM NORTH-
NORTHWEST OF ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWESTWARD
AT 04 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT ANIMATED MULTISPEC-
TRAL AND MICROWAVE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOW DEEP CONVECTIVE
BANDING WRAPPING INTO AN INCREASINGLY WELL-DEFINED CIRCULATION
CENTER. THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO TRACK GENERALLY SOUTHWARD
OVER THE NEXT 48 ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A STEERING RIDGE
ANCHORED NORTHEAST OF MADAGASCAR. LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND
GOOD POLEWARD AND EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW ARE EXPECTED TO FACILITATE
INTENSIFICATION AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE THROUGHOUT THE FORECAST
PERIOD. INTENSITY OF THIS SYSTEM WILL DEPEND STRONGLY UPON TRACK.
IF THE STEERING RIDGE BUILDS FURTHER WESTWARD THAN CURRENTLY
FORECAST, THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM
COULD MOVE ASHORE AND DISSIPATE. THIS POSSIBILITY IS PRESENTED
AS AN ALTERNATE FORECAST SCENARIO. THIS WARNING SUPERSEDES AND
CANCELS REF A, NAVPACMETOCCEN 282351Z NOV 06 TROPICAL CYCLONE

KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY
DEPICTS A RELATIVELY DISORGANIZED SYSTEM WITH DEEP CONVECTIVE
BANDING OVER THE WESTERN SEMICIRCLE. THE 300036Z AMSU IMAGE
DEPICTED SLIGHTLY WEAKENING DEEP CONVECTION WITH THE LOW LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER LOCATED JUST EAST OF THE DEEPEST CONVECTION.
THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO TRACK GENERALLY SOUTHWARD THROUGH

ANCHORED NORTHEAST OF MADAGASCAR. LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND
GOOD POLEWARD AND EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW ARE EXPECTED TO FACILITATE
INTENSIFICATION AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE THROUGH TAU 24. AFTERWARDS,

REMARKS:
301500Z POSITION NEAR 13.3S 42.3E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 03S, LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 460 NM NORTHWEST
OF ANTANANARIVO, MADAGASCAR, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 09
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. TC 03S WILL TRACK SOUTHWARD ALONG THE
WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE LOCATED EAST OF MADAGASCAR.
TC 03W WILL SLIGHTLY INTENSIFY THEN MAINTAIN INTENSITY THROUGH TAU
24 DUE TO COMPETING INFLUENCES OF FAVORABLE DIVERGENCE ALOFT AND
MODERATE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. AFTER TAU 24, INCREASING VERTICAL
WIND SHEAR WILL CAUSE THE SYSTEM TO BEGIN WEAKENING. MAXIMUM
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 301200Z IS 17 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
