SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE/SOUTH INDIAN OCEAN: TC 08S(BATSIRAI). WARNING 18 ISSUED AT 04/15UTC.

FORECAST REASONING. SIGNIFICANT FORECAST CHANGES: THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE FORECAST FROM THE PREVIOUS WARNING. FORECAST DISCUSSION: TC BATSIRAI WILL CONTINUE ON ITS CURRENT TRACK UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF THE STR, MAKING LANDFALL OVER CENTRAL MADAGASCAR JUST AFTER 24H, CROSS THE ISLAND, AND EXIT INTO THE MOZAMBIQUE CHANNEL SHORTLY AFTER 48H. AFTERWARD, IT WILL ROUND THE WESTERN EDGE OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) AND TRACK SOUTHWARD. THE INITIAL FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WILL FUEL SLIGHT INTENSIFICATION TO 120KTS/CAT 4 US BY 12H; AFTERWARD, INTERACTION WITH MADAGASCAR WILL SLOWLY THEN RAPIDLY ERODE THE SYSTEM DOWN TO 40KTS PRIOR TO ITS EXIT INTO THE CHANNEL. THE WARM SST IN THE CHANNEL WILL RE-INTENSIFY TC 08S TO 50KTS BY 96H. AFTERWARD, REDUCED UPPER LEVEL OUTFLOW AND DECREASING SST WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN IT, DOWN TO 45KTS BY 120H.

Powerful TC 08S(BATSIRAI) CAT 4 US: to make landfall over Madagascar shortly after 24h// Invest 90S is now TC 10S, 04/15utc

CIMSS ANALYSIS: NEUTRAL OVER 24H.


CLICK ON THE IMAGERY BELOW TO ANIMATE AND ENLARGE IT

SATELLITE ANALYSIS, INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY DISCUSSION: ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) DEPICTS AN INTENSE, HIGHLY SYMMETRICAL SYSTEM WITH DEEP CENTRAL CONVECTION AND A 55-KM SHARPLY OUTLINED EYE. THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE BASED ON THE EYE FEATURE, ADJUSTED FOR A SLIGHT TILT AND LINED UP WITH A WELL-DEFINED MICROWAVE EYE FEATURE IN THE 041015Z ATMS IMAGE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY OF 115KTS/CAT 4 US IS BASED ON AN OVERALL ASSESSMENT OF AGENCY AND AUTOMATED DVORAK ESTIMATES AND CONSISTENT WITH THE SUSTAINED 6-HR CONVECTIVE STRUCTURE. ANALYSIS INDICATES THE CYCLONE IS IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH WARM (28- 29C) SST, STRONG POLEWARD OUTFLOW, AND LOW (10-15KT) VWS. TC 08S IS TRACKING ALONG THE NORTHWEST PERIPHERY OF THE DEEP-LAYER STR TO THE SOUTH.

MODEL DISCUSSION: NUMERICAL MODELS REMAIN IN TIGHT AGREEMENT, GRADUALLY AND EVENLY SPREADING OUT TO 630KM BY 120H WITH NVGM THE NOTABLE RIGHT OF TRACK OUTLIER, LENDING MEDIUM CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST THAT IS LAID NEAR THE MODEL CONSENSUS (CONW) UP TO 72H THEN JUST LEFT OF CONW TO OFFSET NVGM. THERE IS ALSO MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN THE INTENSITY FORECAST UP TO 72H, THEN LOW CONFIDENCE AFTERWARD.

SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE/SOUTH INDIAN OCEAN: TC 10S. WARNING 1 ISSUED AT 04/09UTC.

FORECAST REASONING. SIGNIFICANT FORECAST CHANGES: THIS INITIAL PROGNOSTIC REASONING MESSAGE ESTABLISHES THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY. FORECAST DISCUSSION: TC 10S WILL TRACK MORE SOUTHWESTWARD UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) FOR THE DURATION OF THE FORECAST. THE MARGINAL ENVIRONMENT WILL FUEL SLOW INTENSIFICATION TO 45KTS AT 24/36H. AFTERWARD, INCREASING VWS WILL REDUCE IT TO 40KTS AND HINDER ANY FURTHER INTENSIFICATION UP TO 96H. AFTER 96H, THE ADDITION OF COOLING SST (26C) WILL BEGIN TO DISSIPATE THE SYSTEM AND BY 120H, WILL BE REDUCED TO 35KTS.

Powerful TC 08S(BATSIRAI) CAT 4 US: to make landfall over Madagascar shortly after 24h// Invest 90S is now TC 10S, 04/15utc

SATELLITE ANALYSIS, INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY DISCUSSION: ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) SHOWS A CONSOLIDATING SYSTEM WITH WEAK FORMATIVE BANDS WRAPPING INTO AN OBSCURED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION (LLC). THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH MEDIUM CONFIDENCE BASED ON A DEFINED LLC FEATURE IN THE 040355Z GPM MICROWAVE IMAGE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY OF 35KTS IS BASED ON RECENT SMAP AND HSCAT DATA AND CONSISTENT WITH THE IMPROVED 6-HR CONVECTIVE STRUCTURE. ANALYSIS INDICATES A MARGINALLY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH STRONG POLEWARD OUTFLOW AND WARM SST OFFSET BY MODERATE (15-20KTS) VWS. THE CYCLONE IS TRACKING ALONG THE NORTHWEST PERIPHERY OF THE STR TO THE SOUTHEAST.

MODEL DISCUSSION: NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT BUT GIVEN THE FORMATIVE NATURE OF THE SYSTEM, THERE IS ONLY MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC INITIAL FORECAST TRACK THAT IS LAID ON TOP OF THE MODEL CONSENSUS.
