23P(NIRAN). WARNING 13 ISSUED AT 04/03UTC.UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH GOOD OUTFLOW, LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND WARM SST VALUES (29-30C). TC 23P IS FORECAST TO ACCELERATE EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD WITHIN THE ENHANCED FLOW BETWEEN A STRONG MAJOR TROUGH TO THE SOUTH AND THE STEERING RIDGE ENTRENCHED TO THE NORTH AND NORTHEAST. BASED ON THE TRIGGERING OF RAPID INTENSIFICATION PREDICTION AIDS, THE PRESENCE OF A COMPACT CYAN RING FEATURE IN THE 032031Z SSMIS 37GHZ COLOR COMPOSITE IMAGE, WHICH IS TYPICALLY INDICATIVE OF IMMINENT RAPID INTENSIFICATION, AND THE FORMATION OF A SMALL EYE IN EIR, TC 23P IS EXPECTED TO RAPIDLY INTENSIFY TO A PEAK OF 120 KNOTS/US CATEGORY 4 BY 24H BUT THIS COULD OCCUR EARLIER AND PEAK AT A HIGHER INTENSITY. AFTER 36H, TC 23P WILL ENCOUNTER INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR ASSOCIATED WITH THE SUBTROPICAL WESTERLIES AND WILL WEAKEN STEADILY THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. NEAR 72H, THE SYSTEM WILL COMMENCE SUBTROPICAL TRANSITION AS IT BECOMES EMBEDDED WITHIN THE SUBTROPICAL WESTERLIES AND INTERACTS WITH WEAK BAROCLINICITY ALONG THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE BAROCLINIC ZONE. THE SYSTEM SHOULD COMPLETE SUBTROPICAL TRANSITION AS A STORM- FORCE LOW BY 96H.
23P(NIRAN).NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN FAIR AGREEMENT WITH A 480KM SPREAD IN SOLUTIONS AT 72H LENDING MODERATE CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK.
23P(NIRAN). 04/0230UTC.ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS A FORMATIVE 40-KM EYE WITHIN A SYMMETRIC CENTRAL DENSE OVERCAST WITH A BANDING FEATURE OVER THE NORTHERN SEMICIRCLE. SATELLITE IMAGERY SUPPORTS THE INITIAL POSITION AND THE RECENT EASTWARD TRACK MOTION WITH GOOD CONFIDENCE. ANIMATED RADAR IMAGERY FROM THE WILLIS ISLAND RADAR REVEALS SPIRAL BANDING WRAPPING INTO A WELL DEFINED EYEWALL WITH A SMALL BREAK IN THE SOUTH QUADRANT.
23P(NIRAN). 03/2312UTC. 60KNOT WINDS(UPPER LIMIT) DETECTED BY ASCAT-B.
23P(NIRAN). 03/2238UTC.
22S(MARIAN). WARNING 13 ISSUED AT 04/03UTC. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS REVEALS MARGINALLY FAVORABLE CONDITIONS WITH LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND GOOD DUAL CHANNEL OUTFLOW OFFSET BY COOLING (25-26C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES (SST). TC 22S IS CURRENTLY TURNING TO THE SOUTH- SOUTHEAST ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A BUILDING SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) POSITIONED TO THE EAST AND IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE TRACKING SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD AS THE STR CONTINUES TO BUILD. AT 48H, TC 22S WILL BEGIN TO DISSIPATE AS A MIDLATITUDE TROUGH BRINGS STRONG WESTERLY WINDS WITH INCREASING WIND SHEAR. AS THE SYSTEM CONTINUES TO MOVE SOUTH, IT WILL ENCOUNTER COOLER (22-23C) SSTS AND INCREASING WIND SHEAR (35-45 KNOTS), DISSIPATING THE SYSTEM BY 72H.
22S(MARIAN). NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT, LENDING TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST.
22S(MARIAN). 03/2323UTC.ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED (EIR) SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS AN EXPOSED, WELL DEFINED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION WITH DECAYING DEEP CONVECTION.MICROWAVE IMAGE INDICATES THE SYSTEM IS STILL WELL ORGANIZED WITH DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING IN THE SOUTHERN SEMICIRCLE WRAPPING INTO A MICROWAVE EYE FEATURE, WHICH SUPPORTS THE INITIAL POSITION WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE..
INVEST 90S. TCFA ISSUED AT 04/03UTC. INVEST 90S IS IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR DEVELOPMENT WITH GOOD OUTFLOW ALOFT, LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND WARM (29-30C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES.
INVEST 90S.GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN GENERAL AGREEMENT THAT INVEST 90S WILL TRACK EAST- SOUTHEASTWARD AS IT CONSOLIDATES.
INVEST 90S. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 032043Z AMSR2 89 GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT FORMATIVE BANDING WRAPPING INTO AN CONSOLIDATING LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER WITH FLARING CONVECTION IN THE NORTHERN AND EASTERN SEMICIRCLES.
