SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE/SOUTH INDIAN OCEAN: TC 08S(BATSIRAI). WARNING 10 ISSUED AT 31/15UTC.

FORECAST REASONING. SIGNIFICANT FORECAST CHANGES: THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE FORECAST FROM THE PREVIOUS WARNING. FORECAST DISCUSSION: TC BATSIRAI WILL COMMENCE ON A SOUTHWESTWARD TRACK AS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) IS WEAKENED BY A TRANSITORY MID-LATITUDE TROUGH. AFTER THE TROUGH RECEDES AFTER 48H, THE STR WILL SLIGHTLY REBUILD AND DRIVE THE CYCLONE ON A MORE WESTWARD THEN WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD TRAJECTORY TOWARD CENTRAL MADAGSCAR. THE MARGINALLY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WILL FUEL A SLOW INTENSIFICATION TO A PEAK OF 105KTS/CAT 3 US BY 96H. AFTERWARD, VWS INCREASE AND LAND INTERACTION WITH THE APPROACH INTO MADAGASCAR WILL WEAKEN THE SYSTEM DOWN TO 90KTS/CAT 2 BY 120H PRIOR TO LANDFALL.

CIMSS ANALYSIS: FAVOURBALE ENVIRONMENT AFTER 12H.


CLICK ON THE IMAGERY BELOW TO ANIMATE AND ENLARGE IT.

SATELLITE ANALYSIS, INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY DISCUSSION: ANIMATED ENHANCED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) SHOWS THE SYSTEM HAS EXPANDED AND BECOME LESS SYMMETRICAL AS FEEDER BANDS HAVE BEGUN TO UNRAVEL. A RAGGED 19-KM PINHOLE EYE HAS ALSO BECOME CLOUD- FILLED. THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH MEDIUM CONFIDENCE BASED ON A DIMPLE FEATURE (CLOUD-FILLED EYE). THE INITIAL INTENSITY OF 85KTS/CAT 2 US IS PLACED WITH MEDIUM CONFIDENCE BASED ON OVERALL ASSESSMENT OF AGENCY AND AUTOMATED DVORAK ESTIMATES (SEE BELOW) AND REFLECTS THE 6-HR CONVECTIVE DECLINE. ANALYSIS INDICATES A MARGINALLY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH STRONG WESTWARD AND POLEWARD OUTFLOW AND WARM ALONG-TRACK SST IN THE SOUTH INDIAN OCEAN OFFSET BY MODERATE TO STRONG (20-25KT) VWS. THE CYCLONE IS TRACKING ALONG THE NORTHEASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE SOUTHWEST.

MICROWAVE EYE DEPICTED WITH INTENSE CORE IN THE NORTHWEST QUADRANT. 31/1400UTC.


MODEL DISCUSSION: NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN OVERALL GOOD AGREEMENT WITH A GRADUAL AND EVEN SPREAD TO 280KM AT 120H, LENDING MEDIUM CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST THAT IS LAID CLOSE TO THE MODEL CONSENSUS. THERE IS ALSO MEDIUM CONFIDENCE TO THE INTENSITY FORECAST UP TO 72H; AFTERWARD, LOW CONFIDENCE DUE TO THE INCREASING VWS AND LAND INTERACTION.
