WTXS21 PGTW 20041223 01:30z MSGID/GENADMIN/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/JTWC// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT 230121ZDEC2004// RMKS/ 1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN 125 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 8.0S8 87.7E2 TO 9.4S3 82.0E0 WITHIN THE NEXT 06 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 IM- AGERY AT 222330Z2 INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 8.2S0 87.3E8. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING WESTWARD AT 11 KNOTS. 2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 8.0S8 89.1E8 IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 8.2S0 87.3E8, APPROXIMATELY 615 NM WEST- NORTHWEST OF THE COCOS ISLAND IN THE SOUTHEAST INDIAN OCEAN. ANIMATED SATELLITE IMAGERY REVEALS INCREASED CONSOLIDATION OF THE DEEP CONVECTION AROUND A WELL ORGANIZED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES AN ENVIRONMENT OF LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND FAVORABLE DIVERGENCE. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1002 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS UPGRADED TO GOOD. 3. THIS ALERT WILL BE REISSUED, UPGRADED TO WARNING OR CANCELLED BY 240130Z0.// ========================================================================= WTXS31 PGTW 20041223 21:00z MSGID/GENADMIN/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNING// REF/A/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/230121ZDEC2004// AMPN/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT// RMKS/ 1.

DURING THE NEXT 24 TO 36 HOURS, TC 06S IS FORECAST TO REMAIN ON A POLEWARD TRACK AS A TRANSIENT MAJOR SHORTWAVE TROUGH WEAKENS THE STEERING RIDGE. BY TAU 36, THE SYSTEM WILL BEGIN TO DRIFT MORE WESTWARD AS THE RIDGE REGAINS STRENGTH. THE INTENSITY OF THE SYSTEM WILL REMAIN STEADY AS FAVORABLE OUTFLOW IS ANTICIPATED THROUGH THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 260600Z4 IS 30 FEET.
