WTXS21 PGTW 182100 MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT// REF/A/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/182051Z DEC 18// AMPN/REF IS TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT (WTXS21 PGTW 182100)// RMKS/ 1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN 160 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 10.0S 61.2E TO 14.8S 57.5E 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 28 TO 33 KNOTS. METSAT IMAGERY AT 181800Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 10.4S 61.1E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING SOUTHWESTWARD AT 01 KNOTS. 2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION (INVEST 92S) PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 10.3S 61.2E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 10.4S 61.1E, APPROXIMATELY 698 NM WEST-SOUTHWEST OF DIEGO GARCIA. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 181114Z SSMIS 91 GHZ PARTIAL MICROWAVE IMAGE SHOW A CONSOLIDATING LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH CONVECTION BUILDING OVER THE CENTER. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES MODERATE (15-25 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS) AND RADIAL OUTFLOW. AS 92S TRACKS TO THE SOUTH OVER THE NEXT 24-36 HOURS, VWS WILL BECOME FAVORABLE AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE SYSTEMS GRADUAL STRENGTHENING. A RECENT ASCAT PASS REVEALS A DEFINED SYMMETRIC CIRCULATION. SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES NEAR THE CURRENT POSITION REMAIN FAVORABLE (28-30 CELSIUS) FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT. EUROPEAN MODELS INDICATE THAT 92S WILL STAY QUASI-STATIONARY FOR 12-24 HOURS, THEN TRACK SOUTHWARD, WHILE OTHER MODELS SHOW THE SYSTEM MOVING SOUTHWARD WITHOUT HESITATION. DYNAMIC MODELS INDICATE GRADUAL DEVELOPMENT TO TROPICAL STORM STRENGTH (35 KNOTS) AT ABOUT THE 24-48 HOUR TIME FRAME. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 28 TO 33 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 998 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS HIGH. THIS SUPERSEDES REF A. 3. THIS ALERT WILL BE REISSUED, UPGRADED TO WARNING OR CANCELLED BY 192100Z. ======================================================================== WTXS32 PGTW 190300 MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING CORRECTED// REF/A/MSG/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/182051ZDEC2018// AMPN/REF A IS A TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT.// RMKS/ 1.

TROPICAL CYCLONE 07S (SEVEN), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 601 NM NORTH- NORTHEAST OF PORT LOUIS, MAURITIUS, HAS TRACKED SOUTH- SOUTHWESTWARD AT 02 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS IMPROVING ORGANIZATION OF CENTRAL CONVECTION AND FORMATIVE BANDING AROUND A DEVELOPING LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A SMAP PASS 14 HOURS AGO SUGGESTED MAXIMUM WINDS WERE BELOW 35 KNOTS, HOWEVER, AN 182303Z SSMI 37GHZ PASS SUGGESTS THIS LLCC HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY WELL DEFINED SINCE THAT TIME. THE INITIAL POSITION WAS BASED ON THE AFOREMENTIONED SSMI PASS WITH FAIR CONFIDENCE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY WAS SET AT 35 KNOTS, BASED ON THE PGTW DVORAK ESTIMATE OF T2.0 WHICH WAS HELD DUE TO CONSTRAINTS, AS WELL AS FMEE T2.5 AND OVERALL APPEARANCE OF THE NOTED MICROWAVE IMAGE. FAVORABLE UPPER LEVEL OUTFLOW AND WARM SSTS ARE OFFSETTING MARGINAL 20 KNOT VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. AS 07S CONTINUES TO CONSOLIDATE, SUBTROPICAL RIDGING TO THE EAST SHOULD PROVIDE SOUTHWESTERLY STEERING MOTION OVER THE NEXT 36-48 HOURS, AFTER WHICH THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO RECURVE TO THE SOUTHEAST. INITIAL TRACK GUIDANCE IS IN EXCELLENT CROSS-TRACK AGREEMENT, HOWEVER, THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL ALONG-TRACK SPREAD, PARTICULARLY AT THE EXTENDED TAUS. INTENSITY GUIDANCE SUGGESTS 07S WILL DEEPEN FAIRLY RAPIDLY OVER THE NEXT 24-36 HOURS, WITH THE CONSENSUS PEAK INTENSITY AT AROUND 80 KNOTS IN THE 3 TO 4 DAY PERIOD. HOWEVER, HWRF AND COAMPS-TC ARE WELL ABOVE THE CONSENSUS VALUES, AND FUTURE FORECASTS MAY HAVE TO BE ADJUSTED UPWARDS IF THIS TREND CONTINUES. AS THIS IS THE FIRST WARNING FOR TC 07S, AND GIVEN THE LARGE ALONG TRACK MODEL SPREAD, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 190000Z IS 7 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 190900Z, 191500Z, 192100Z, AND 200300Z. REFER TO TROPICAL CYCLONE 06S (KENANGA) WARNINGS (WTXS31 PGTW) FOR SIX-HOURLY UPDATES. 2.

TROPICAL CYCLONE 07S (CILIDA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 527 NM NORTH-NORTHEAST OF PORT LOUIS, MAURITIUS, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWESTWARD AT 04 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS AN INCREASINGLY ORGANIZED, FLARING CENTRAL DENSE OVERCAST FEATURE. THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE ON AMBIGUITIES SHOWING A CONSOLIDATED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER FROM A 191803Z ASCAT PASS. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS BASED ON THE AFOREMENTIONED ASCAT PASS THAT SHOWED 40 KT WIND BARBS WRAPPED AROUND THE SYSTEM AND SEVERAL 45 KT WIND BARBS. THE INITIAL INTENSITY AGREES WITH DVORAK CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF T3.0 (45 KTS) FROM KNES AND PGTW. FAVORABLE UPPER LEVEL OUTFLOW, ESPECIALLY THE POLEWARD OUTFLOW CHANNEL, AND WARM (26-27 DEGREES CELSIUS) SSTS ARE OFFSETTING MODERATE (20 KT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. TC 07S WILL TRACK SOUTHWESTWARD THROUGH TAU 48 UNDER THE DUAL STEERING INFLUENCES OF A NEAR-EQUATORIAL RIDGE TO THE NORTHEAST AND A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE SOUTH. AFTER TAU 48, A MIDLATITUDE TROUGH MOVES INTO THE AREA, CAUSING THE STR TO RE-ORIENT TO THE EAST AND PULLING TC 07S ON AN ACCELERATING SOUTHEASTWARD TRACK. DURING THIS PHASE, A SECOND CYCLONE (TC 06S) WILL BE WITHIN PROXIMITY OF TC 07S FOR A POSSIBLE BINARY INTERACTION THAT MAY INTRODUCE AN ERRATIC MOTION, THOUGH MODEL TRACKERS DO NOT CAPTURE THIS SCENARIO AT THIS TIME. AS TC 07S MOVES POLEWARD, IT WILL ENTER A MORE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH LOWER VWS, AND DIVERGENCE ALOFT WILL IMPROVE AS TC 07S IS ABLE TO TAP INTO THE PASSING MIDLATITUDE TROUGH. THE RAPID INTENSIFICATION AID FOR 25 KTS OF INTENSITY INCREASE IN 24 HOURS HAS BEEN TRIGGERED. ACCORDINGLY, THE JTWC INTENSITY FORECAST NOW PREDICTS A PEAK OF 105 KTS AT TAU 72, ON THE HIGH END OF MESOSCALE MODEL GUIDANCE AND THE CLIMATOLOGICAL RANGE OF POSSIBILITIES. AFTER TAU 72, VWS WILL INCREASE, OUTFLOW WILL DECREASE, AND SSTS WILL DECREASE, AS TC 07S APPROACHES THE MIDLATITUDE WESTERLIES AND CROSSES THE 26 DEGREE CELSIUS ISOTHERM. TC 07S IS FORECAST TO WEAKEN TO 50 KTS BY TAU 120. NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT ACROSS-TRACK, HOWEVER, THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL ALONG-TRACK DIFFERENCES, ESPECIALLY IN THE LATER TAUS. ECMWF IS CLOSE TO BUT SLOWER THAN THE MODEL CONSENSUS. THE NAVGEM, GFS, AND HWRF SOLUTIONS ARE WEST OF THE MULTIMODEL CONSENSUS. GALWEM IS ON THE INSIDE OF AND FASTER THAN CONSENSUS. IN VIEW OF THIS, THERE IS OVERALL LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST, WHICH IS PLACED CLOSE TO BUT SLOWER THAN THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 191800Z IS 12 FEET.

TROPICAL CYCLONE 07S (CILIDA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 473 NM NORTH-NORTHEAST OF PORT LOUIS, MAURITIUS, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWESTWARD AT 07 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON A RECENT SATELLITE FIX FROM PGTW AND A 200311Z GMI PASS INDICATING A DEVELOPING LOW LEVEL EYE FEATURE. THE INTENSITY OF 60 KNOTS IS BASED PRIMARILY ON A 200509Z ASCAT PASS. TC 07S IS UNDERGOING RAPID INTENSIFICATION UNDER THE VERY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCES OF VIGOROUS UPPER LEVEL OUTFLOW, DECREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES BETWEEN 28 AND 29 DEGREES CELSIUS. THE SYSTEM IS TRACKING SOUTHWESTWARD ALONG THE PERIPHERY OF A SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE TO THE SOUTHEAST. THIS STEERING RIDGE IS EXPECTED TO REORIENT AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING MID-LATITUDE TROUGH DURING THE FORECAST PERIOD, TURNING THE CYCLONE GRADUALLY POLEWARD TO SOUTHEASTWARD. TC 07S IS EXPECTED TO UNDERGO EXTRATROPICAL TRANSITION AS IT MERGES WITH THE TROUGH BETWEEN TAU 96 AND TAU 120. RAPID INTENSIFICATION WILL CONTINUE IN THE NEAR-TERM AS CONDITIONS REMAIN VERY FAVORABLE. FORECAST INTENSITIES HAVE INCREASED TO REFLECT THIS TREND. AFTER TAU 72, TC 07S IS EXPECTED TO EXPERIENCE INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AHEAD OF THE DEVELOPING MID-LATITUDE TROUGH. THIS INCREASING SHEAR AND PASSAGE OVER COOLER WATER WILL RESULT IN STEADY WEAKENING IN THE EXTENDED RANGE. THE NUMERICAL MODEL SOLUTIONS ARE IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT REGARDING THE OVERALL FORECAST SCENARIO, BUT DIFFER IN THEIR DEPICTIONS OF BOTH THE TIMING AND SPEED OF THE ANTICIPATED POLEWARD TURN AND POST-TURN ACCELERATION INTO THE MID-LATITUDE WESTERLIES. THE CURRENT FORECAST LIES SLIGHTLY TO THE WEST OF THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS AND THE PREVIOUS JTWC TRACK FORECAST BASED ON A WESTWARD TREND OBSERVED IN RECENT CONSENSUS TRACKS.

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 07S (CILIDA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 696 NM SOUTHEAST OF PORT LOUIS, MAURITIU, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT 13 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 241754Z MHS 89GHZ IMAGE DEPICT A FULLY- EXPOSED, BROAD LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER WITH DEEP CONVECTION SHEARED OVER THE SOUTHERN SEMICIRCLE DUE TO STRONG (30 TO 40 KNOTS) NORTHWESTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE CURRENT INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 55 KNOTS BASED ON A 241649Z ASCAT IMAGE SHOWING A SWATH OF 50-55 KNOT WINDS OVER THE WESTERN QUADRANT. TC 07S IS CURRENTLY TRACKING POLEWARD WITHIN STRONG SUBTROPICAL WESTERLY FLOW NEAR THE 200MB JET AND APPEARS TO BE TRANSITIONING TO A SUBTROPICAL CYCLONE. A RECENT AMSU TEMPERATURE ANOMALY CROSS-SECTION INDICATES A LOW-LEVEL WARM ANOMALY WITH A COLD ANOMALY NEAR THE TROPOPAUSE, TYPICAL OF SUBTROPICAL SYSTEMS. TC CILIDA IS FORECAST TO RAPIDLY GAIN FRONTAL CHARACTERISTICS AS IT FURTHER EMBEDS WITHIN THE MIDLATITUDE WESTERLIES AND TRANSITIONS TO A STORM-FORCE EXTRA-TROPICAL CYCLONE BY TAU 12. OVERALL, THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK BASED ON THE TIGHT GROUPING OF DYNAMIC MODEL GUIDANCE. THIS IS THE FINAL WARNING ON THIS SYSTEM BY THE JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI. THE SYSTEM WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR SIGNS OF REGENERATION. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 241800Z IS 24 FEET.//
