WTPS21 PGTW 20150630 02:00z MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT// RMKS/ 1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN 160 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 3.9S 161.1E TO 5.9S 157.7E 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 300000Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 4.2S 160.8E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING WESTWARD AT 05 KNOTS. 2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 4.3S 161.3E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 4.2S 160.8E, APPROXIMATELY 875 NM EAST- NORTHEAST OF PORT MORESBY, PAPUA NEW GUINEA. ANIMATED MSI SHOWS FORMATIVE BANDING STRUCTURE ASSOCIATED WITH THE DEEP CONVECTION OF THIS SYSTEM. ALSO A RECENT (292226Z) METOP-A ASCAT PASS REVEALS THAT A SOLID LLCC HAS DEVELOPED WITH WINDS IN EXCESS OF 25 KNOTS AND THE DEEPEST CONVECTION LOCATED ON THE WESTERN SIDE OF THE LLCC. THE INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY ARE BASED ON THE AFOREMENTIONED MICROWAVE IMAGE AS WELL AS FIXES FROM PGTW AND KNES. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THAT, WHILE THE SYSTEM HAS GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW, THE 15-20 KNOTS OF EASTERLY VWS IS CURRENTLY HAMPERING OVERALL DEVELOPMENT. ADDITIONALLY, GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT THIS SYSTEM HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME A TROPICAL CYCLONE IN THE NEXT 24-36 HOURS. THE POTENTIAL FOR THIS SYSTEM TO DEVELOP WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS HIGH. 3. THIS ALERT WILL BE REISSUED, UPGRADED TO WARNING OR CANCELLED BY 010200Z.// ========================================================================= WTPS31 PGTW 20150630 15:00z AMD MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE 25P (TWENTYFIVE) WARNING NR 001A AMENDED// REF/A/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/300151ZJUN2015// AMPN/REF A IS A TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT// RMKS/ 1.

TROPICAL CYCLONE 25P (TWENTYFIVE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 1068 NM NORTH-NORTHWEST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONI, HAS TRACKED SOUTH- SOUTHWESTWARD AT 07 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED EIR DEPICTS DEEPENED CENTRAL CONVECTION WITH TIGHTLY-CURVED BANDING WRAPPING INTO A CONSOLIDATING LLCC. THE CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON THE EIR LOOP ALONG WITH SATELLITE FIXES FROM PGTW AND KNES WITH GOOD CONFIDENCE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY OF 35 KNOTS IS BASED ON MATCHING DVORAK INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF T2.5 FROM PGTW AND KNES. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES TC 25P IS LOCATED IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH LOW VWS AND EXCELLENT POLEWARD OUTFLOW. TC 25P IS CURRENTLY TRACKING UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE STEERING STR TO THE EAST. TC 25P IS EXPECTED TO SLOWLY INTENSIFY AS VWS INCREASES. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO PEAK AT 55 KNOTS BY TAU 36. CONCURRENTLY, A UPPER-LEVEL TROUGH PASSING TO THE NORTH WEAKENS THE STR, DRIVING THE SYSTEM TO THE SOUTHEAST. LAND INTERACTION AS IT DRIFTS ACROSS THE SOLOMON ISLAND WILL ALSO IMPACT THE SYSTEM. DUE TO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES AMONG LIMITED MODEL GUIDANCE, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 301200Z IS 8 FEET.

TROPICAL CYCLONE 25P (RAQUEL), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 516 NM SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF KAPINGAMARANGI, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWESTWARD AT 09 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MSI SHOWS DEEPENED CONVECTION WITH GOOD BANDING WRAPPING INTO THE LLCC. THE CURRENT POSITION WAS ALSO INFLUENCED BY A 302022Z SSMIS IMAGE SHOWING A FORMATIVE MICROWAVE EYE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AS 45 KNOTS BASED ON DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM PGTW AND ABRF. THE SYSTEM IS CURRENTLY IN A MARGINALLY CONDUCIVE UPPER LEVEL ENVIRONMENT WITH 20 TO 30 KNOTS OF VWS AND GOOD DIVERGENCE. THE SYSTEM IS CURRENTLY TRACKING ALONG THE NORTHWESTERN SIDE OF A STR. AS THE STR TRACKS TO THE EAST, TC RAQUEL WILL BEING TO SLOWLY TRACK TO THE SOUTHEAST THROUGH TAU 36, REACHING A PEAK INTENSITY OF 60 KNOTS. AS THE STR REGENERATES AND FILLS IN TO THE WEST, EXPECT TC 25P TO TRACK TO BACK TO THE SOUTHWEST AND MAINTAIN INTENSITY. AS TC RAQUEL TRACKS SOUTH OF 10 DEGREES SOUTH, EXPECT VWS TO INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY AND THE SYSTEM BEGIN TO DECAY. THERE IS SIGNIFICANT SPREAD IN MODEL GUIDANCE FOR THIS SYSTEM DUE TO THE THIS SYSTEM BEING A CLIMATOLOGICAL ANOMALY. AS SUCH, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST RACK WHICH IS PLACED CLOSE TO THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 010000Z IS 14 FEET.

THE INITIAL INTENSITY REMAINS AT 45 KNOTS BASED ON DVORAK INTENSITY ESTIMATES FROM ALL REPORTING AGENCIES. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES TC RAQUEL IS LOCATED IN AN AREA OF MODERATE TO STRONG (20 TO 30 KNOT) VWS BEING OFFSET BY GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW. THE CYCLONE IS CURRENTLY TRACKING UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF THE STR TO THE EAST. SLOW MOVEMENT IS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS. AFTER TAU 48, THE STR IS FORECAST TO BUILD, DRIVING THE SYSTEM SOUTHWESTWARD THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. MARGINAL CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST, LEADING TO SLOW INTENSIFICATION. IN THE EXTENDED TAUS, INCREASING VWS WILL BEGIN TO DECAY TC 25P. AVAILABLE MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SHOW SIGNIFICANT SPREAD, LEADING TO LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST, WHICH IS POSITIONED CLOSE TO MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS.
