032100Z6 POSITION NEAR 10.5S6 61.9E6.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 18S HAS TRACKED SOUTHWEST AT 4 KTS IN THE PAST
6 HOURS AND IS APPROXIMATELY 640 NM NORTH-NORTHEAST OF MAURITIUS.
THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED UPON ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE
IMAGERY. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS BASED UPON CURRENT INTENSITY
ESTIMATES OF 30 AND 35 KNOTS. 24 HOUR ANALYSIS OF QUIKSCAT DATA
CLEARLY INDICATES A COMPACTING LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC)
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS AREA. ANIMATED SATELLITE IMAGERY REVEALS
DEEPENING CONVECTION OVER THE LLCC. TC 18S IS EXPECTED TO DRIFT IN A
SOUTHWESTERLY DIRECTION THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. TC 18S IS
EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY SLOWLY DURING THE FORECAST PERIOD AS THE
SYSTEM CONTINUES TO CONSOLIDATE AND DRIFT INTO A MORE FAVORABLE
UPPER-LEVEL ENVIRONMENT. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 031800Z2
IS 12 FEET. THIS WARNING SUPERSEDES AND CANCELS REF A,

060900Z5 POSITION NEAR 16.6S3 61.0E7.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 18S (EVARISTE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 300 NM
NORTHEAST OF MAURITIUS ISLAND, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWARD AT 05 KTS
DURING THE PAST 6 HOURS. THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED ON 060530Z4
VISIBLE AND INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY AND 060528Z1 TROPICAL
RAINFALL MEASURING MISSION (TRMM) IMAGE. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS
BASED UPON CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 65 AND 77 KNOTS. THE TRMM
IMAGE DEPICTED A PARTIALLY EXPOSED LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
(LLCC) WITH DEEP CONVECTION ON THE SOUTHERN SIDE. TC 18S IS FORECAST
TO TRACK SOUTHWARD WITH INCREASING SPEED OVER THE FORECAST PERIOD.
LITTLE CHANGE IN INTENSITY IS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS.
AFTERWARD, A SLOW WEAKENING TREND IS FORECAST BEFORE BAROCLINIC
INTERACTION WITHIN THE MID-LATITUDES BEGINS. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT
WAVE HEIGHT AT 060600Z2 IS 22 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 062100Z9 AND
