REMARKS:
060300Z POSITION NEAR 16.0S 139.5E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 12P (NELSON), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 380 NM WEST
OF CAIRNS, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED EASTWARD AT 05 KNOTS OVER THE PAST
SIX HOURS. THE SYSTEM HAS INTENSIFIED AT A LESS THAN CLIMATOLOGICAL
RATE OVER THE PAST TWELVE HOURS. TC 11P IS TRACKING SOUTHEASTWARD
ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF A NEAR-EQUATORIAL RIDGE
LOCATED EAST OF THE TC. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS A DEEPENING
MIDLATITUDE TROUGH LOCATED UPSTREAM, WHICH WILL FURTHER ACT TO STEER
THE TC SOUTHEASTWARD THROUGH TAU 48. TC 11P WILL INTENSIFY AT A LESS
THAN CLIMATOLOGICAL RATE THROUGH TAU 48 DUE TO COMPETING INFLUENCES
OF FAVORABLE POLEWARD OUTFLOW AND INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR.
THE AVAILABLE DYNAMIC AIDS ARE IN FAIR AGREEMENT WITH THIS SCENARIO.
THIS FORECAST IS BASED ON A CONSENSUS OF ALL AVAILABLE DYNAMIC AIDS.

REMARKS:
061500Z POSITION NEAR 16.6S 140.6E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 12P (NELSON), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 315 NM WEST
OF CAIRNS, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 06 KNOTS OVER
THE PAST SIX HOURS. MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY REVEALS THE OVERALL STRUC-
TURE OF THE SYSTEM HAS BECOME MORE CONSOLIDATED OVER THE PAST 12
HOURS. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THAT TC 12P IS LOCATED IN AN
AREA OF FAVORABLE UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE AND LOW TO MODERATE VERTICAL
WIND SHEAR. TC 12P HAS CONTINUED TO INTENSIFY AT A LESS THAN CLIMA-
TOLOGICAL RATE OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS AND IS FORECAST TO REACH MAX-
IMUM INTENSITY BY TAU 12, JUST PRIOR TO LANDFALL. BEYOND TAU 12 THE
SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DECREASING INTENSITY DUE TO LAND INTER-
ACTION. TC 12P REMAINS UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF A NEAR-
EQUATORIAL RIDGE LOCATED NORTHEAST OF THE TC. WEAKENING OF THE NEAR-
EQUATORIAL RIDGE FROM A MID-LATITUDE TROUGH DEEPENING UPSTREAM OF
THE TC WILL CAUSE A MORE EASTWARD TRACK BEYOND TAU 12. THE AVAILABLE
DYNAMIC AIDS ARE IN FAIR AGREEMENT WITH THIS SCENARIO. THIS FORECAST
IS BASED ON A CONSENSUS OF ALL AVAILABLE DYNAMIC AIDS. MAXIMUM
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 061200Z IS 15 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
070300Z AND 071500Z.//

REMARKS:
070300Z POSITION NEAR 17.1S 142.8E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 12P (NELSON), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 200 NM WEST
OF CAIRNS, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 08 KNOTS OVER
THE PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL AND MICROWAVE SAT-
ELLITE IMAGERY SHOW THAT CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM HAS
DISSIPATED SIGNIFICANTLY OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS AND THAT THE LOW
LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER REMAINS ASHORE. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO
CONTINUE DISSIPATING OVER LAND TO BELOW TROPICAL CYCLONE STRENGTH
OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS. HOWEVER, STRONG SURFACE TROUGHING, LOW
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, AND FAVORABLE UPPER LEVEL DIFFLUENCE ARE EVIDENT
AHEAD OF THE STORM CENTER TRACK OVER THE CORAL SEA, AND SOME REGENER-
ATION OF THIS SYSTEM IS POSSIBLE AFTER THE CIRCULATION CENTER CROSSES
THE QUEENSLAND COAST AND REEMERGES OVER WATER. 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.//
