WTXS21 PGTW 20070311 23:00z MSGID/GENADMIN/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/JTWC// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT/222351ZJUN2004// REF/A/MSG/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/111952Z MAR 07// AMPN/REF IS A TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT WARNING.// RMKS/ 1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN 100 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 13.4S 59.0E TO 14.3S 55.9E 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 27 TO 32 KNOTS. METSAT IM- AGERY AT 111800Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 13.4S 58.8E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING WESTWARD AT 03 KNOTS. 2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 15.2S 60.2E IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 13.4S 58.8E, APPROXIMATELY 500 NM NORTH- NORTHEAST OF LA REUNION. RECENT ANIMATED INFRARED AND WATER VAPOR SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOW DEEP CONVECTION FLARING NEAR THE CENTER OF A WELL-DEFINED LWO LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER EVIDENT IN A 111827Z AMSU-B MICROWAVE IMAGE. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS GOOD EQUATOR- WARD AND POLEWARD DIFFLUENCE ASSOCIATED WITH RIDGING ALOFT AND LOW TO MODERATE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 27 TO 32 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTI- MATED TO BE NEAR 1000 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS REMAINS GOOD. THIS SUPERSEDES REF A. 3. THIS ALERT WILL BE REISSUED, UPGRADED TO WARNING OR CANCELLED BY 122300Z.// ========================================================================= WTXS31 PGTW 20070312 03:00z MSGID/GENADMIN/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/JTWC// SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT/222351ZJUN2004// REF/A/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/112300Z MAR 07// REF/B/MSG/NAVPACMETOCCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/111952Z MAR 07// NARR/REF IS A TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT.

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 19S (INDLALA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 490 NM NORTH-NORTHEAST OF LA REUNION, HAS TRACKED WESTWARD AT 04 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT SATELLITE INTENSITY ESTIMATES AND EVIDENCE OF TIGHTLY CURVED CONVECTIVE BANDING IN A 112310Z AMSU-B MICROWAVE SATELLITE PASS INDICATE THAT TC 19S HAS FORMED IN THE SOUTHWESTERN INDIAN OCEAN. ANIMATED INFRARED AND WATER VAPOR SAT- ELLITE IMAGERY SHOW DEEP CONVECTION PERSISTING OVER A WELL-DEFINED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER ALSO EVIDENT IN THE AMSU-B IMAGE. THE SYSTEM IS TRACKING SLOWLY WESTWARD ALONG THE NORTHERN PERIPH- ERY OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE ANCHORED SOUTH OF LA REUNION. TC 19S WILL MOVE SLOWLY WESTWARD EARLY IN THE FORECAST PERIOD AS NEAR- EQUATORIAL RIDGING TO THE NORTH OF THE STORM PROVIDES A COMPETING STEERING INFLUENCE TO THE SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE. THIS SUB- TROPICAL RIDGE IS EXPECTED TO REORIENT AND THE ACCOMPANYING STEERING FLOW WILL STRENGTHEN THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD, ALLOWING TC 19S TO CONTINUE WESTWARD A BIT MORE RAPIDLY. GOOD POLEWARD AND EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW SHOULD ALLOW THE STORM TO INTENSIFY AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE THROUGH TAU 48, AS REFLECTED IN THE CURRENT FORECAST.

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 19S (INDLALA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 500 NM NORTH-NORTHEAST OF LA REUNION, HAS TRACKED WESTWARD AT 05 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE SYSTEM IS TRACKING SLOWLY WESTWARD ALONG THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE ANCHORED SOUTH OF LA REUNION. TC 19S IS FORECAST TO TRACK WEST- WARD INITIALLY, BUT WILL BEGIN TRACKING WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AND THEN SOUTHWESTWARD AS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE RE-ORIENTS ITSELF IN RESPONSE TO A TROUGH THAT IS CURRENTLY OVER SOUTH AFRICA. TC 19S HAS INTENSIFIED RAPIDLY DUE TO GOOD POLEWARD AND EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW AND DECREASED VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO INTENSIFY AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD DUE TO CONTINUED GOOD UPPER LEVEL OUTFLOW. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 121200Z IS 18 FEET.

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 19S (INDLALA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 490 NM NORTH OF LA REUNION, HAS TRACKED WESTWARD AT 09 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE SYSTEM HAS ACCELERATED AND INTEN- SIFIED OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS IN THE EASTERLY FLOW ASSOCIATED WITH A SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE ANCHORED SOUTHEAST OF MAD- AGASCAR. A MIDLATITUDE TROUGH EXTENDING INTO THE SOUTHERN MOZ- AMBIQUE CHANNEL TO THE SOUTHWEST OF TC 19S IS INDUCING A WEAK- NESS IN THE STEERING RIDGE OVER MADAGASCAR. THE STORM IS FORE- CAST TO CONTINUE WESTWARD ALONG THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE PERIPHERY THROUGH TAU 12 BEFORE TURNING POLEWARD IN RESPONSE TO THE DE- VELOPING WEAKNESS IN THE STEERING RIDGE. GOOD EQUATORAWARD OUTFLOW ASSOCIATED WITH RIDGING ALOFT IS EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. HOWEVER, THE FLOW ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER LEVEL ANTICYCLONE ANCHORED EAST OF THE STORM IS BEGIN- NING TO HINDER POLEWARD OUTFLOW. AS THE STORM REACHES THE SUB- TROPICAL STEERING RIDGE PERIPHERY AND TURNS SOUTHWARD, THOUGH, A POLEWARD OUTFLOW CHANNEL SHOULD DEVELOP, ALLOWING FURTHER INTENSIFICATION. THEREFORE, THE FORECAST CALLS FOR INTENSITY TO INCREASE AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE THROUGH TAU 24 AND INCREASE MORE SLOWLY FOR THE REST OF THE FORECAST PERIOD AS THE STORM BEGINS TO INTERACT WITH LAND. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 130000Z IS 25 FEET.

TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 19S (INDLALA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 495 NM NORTH OF LA REUNION, HAS TRACKED WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 07 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. THE SYSTEM HAS INTENSIFIED AT A CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE OVER THE PAST 24 HOURS. TC 19S IS TRACKING SOUTHWESTWARD TOWARDS A DEVELOPING WEAKNESS IN THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE CAUSED BY AN APPROACHING MIDLATITUDE TROUGH TO THE SOUTHWEST. THE SYSTEM HAS SLOWED OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS IN RESPONSE TO THE CHANGE IN DIRECTION. THIS SLOWER SPEED IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE THROUGH TAU 24, AFTER WHICH THE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO ACCELERATE POLEWARD. TC 19S WILL INTENSIFY AT A CLIMATOLOGIC RATE THROUGH TAU 24 DUE TO GOOD EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW. AFTER THAT, THE SYSTEM WILL MAINTAIN INTENSITY AND THEN BEGIN TO WEAKEN DUE TO COMPETING INFLUENCES OF GOOD UPPER LEVEL OUTLFOW, SLIGHTLY COOLER SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES, INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, AND INTERACTION WITH LAND.

THE AIDS INDICATE THAT THE REMNANTS OF THE STORM WILL LIKELY TRACK BACK OVER WATER NEAR THE 36 TO 48-HOUR POINT AND WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED. THE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN RAPIDLY AS IT MOVES OVER 3000 TO 5000 FOOT MOUNTAINS AND IS FORECAST TO DISSIPATE BY TAU 12. THIS IS THE FINAL WARNING ON THIS SYSTEM BY THE JOINT TYPHOON WARNING CENTER (NAVPACMETOCCEN). THE SYSTEM WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR SIGNS OF REGENERATION.//
