26S(SEROJA). WARNING 16 ISSUED AT 08/09UTC. ANALYSIS INDICATES A MARGINALLY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH VERY WARM (30-31C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE (SST) AND FAIR EASTERLY OUTFLOW ALOFT SLIGHTLY OFFSET BY 15-20KTS OF EASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. TC 26S IS EXPECTED TO TRACK MORE SOUTHWESTWARD ALONG THE NORTHWEST PERIPHERY OF THE DEEP-LAYERED SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) ANCHORED OVER WESTERN AUSTRALIA. AFTER 12H AND UP TO 24H, THE CYCLONE MAY UNDERGO A SLIGHT PULL TO THE RIGHT WITH MINOR WOBBLING AS A RESULT OF BINARY INTERACTION WITH TC 27S THAT WILL APPROACH TC 26S WITHIN 425KM. AFTER 36H, A MID-LATITUDE SHORTWAVE TROUGH APPROACHING FROM THE SOUTHWEST WILL WEAKEN THE STR CAUSING THE TC TO BEGIN ROUNDING THE STR AXIS AND TO TRACK MORE SOUTHWARD BEFORE ACCELERATING SOUTHEASTWARD TOWARD THE GREAT AUSTRALIAN BIGHT. THE AFOREMENTIONED FAVORABLE CONDITIONS WILL FUEL RAPID INTENSIFICATION TO A PEAK OF 105KNOTS/US CAT 3 BY 48H. AFTERWARD, THERE WILL BE AN INCREASE IN VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, COOLING SST, AND LANDFALL INTERACTION INTO SOUTHWEST AUSTRALIA BETWEEN 72 AND 96H. ONCE OVER LAND, THE SYSTEM WILL RAPIDLY ERODE THE SYSTEM DOWN TO 40KNOTS BY 96H AND UNDERGO EXTRA- TROPICAL TRANSITION. BY 120H, THE SYSTEM WILL HAVE COMPLETELY BECOME A COLD-CORE GALE-FORCE LOW AS IT EXITS INTO THE AUSTRALIAN BIGHT.
26S(SEROJA). NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN FAIR AGREEMENT THROUGH 24H, WITH NVGM AND AFUM BEING THE EXTREME LEFT OUTLIERS. NEAR 36/48H, THE EXCESSIVE BINARY INTERACTION (EBI) WITH TC 27S, THE MODELS START SPREADING APART SIGNIFICANTLY AS THE VORTEX BECOMES EMBEDDED IN THE BAROCLINIC ZONE DURING EXTRA TROPICAL TRANSITION. OVERALL, THERE IS MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST THAT IS LAID SLIGHTLY RIGHT OF THE MODEL CONSENSUS DURING THE MID-PORTION TO OFFSET THE EXTREME LEFT OUTLIERS NVGM AND AFUM.
26S(SEROJA). 08/0830UTC. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) SHOWS THAT THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN SHEARED ON THE EASTERN SIDE PARTIALLY EXPOSING THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION (LLC).
26S. WARNING 14 ISSUED AT 08/09UTC. ANALYSIS INDICATES THE CYCLONE IS IN A MARGINAL ENVIRONMENT WITH STRONG SUBSIDENCE ALOFT ALONG THE EASTERN HALF DUE TO THE OUTFLOW FROM TC 26S AND MODERATE TO STRONG (20-25KT) EASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR THAT ARE PARTLY OFFSET BY WARM (29C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE. THE SYSTEM IS IN A NEUTRAL AREA BETWEEN A LOW REFLECTION OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE TO THE SOUTHWEST, WEAK NEAR EQUATORIAL RIDGING TO THE NORTHWEST, AND OUTFLOW PRESSURE FROM AN APPROACHING TC 26S, CURRENTLY 650KM TO THE EAST. AS TC 26S GETS CLOSER, A BINARY INTERACTION WILL COMMENCE DUE TO FUJIWARA EFFECT RESULTING IN TC 26S TRACKING CYCLONICALLY INTO AN ARC NORTHEASTWARD. THE WARM WATER AND INCREASED OUTFLOW WILL MARGINALLY OFFSET THE VWS AND PROMOTE A MODEST INTENSIFICATION TO A PEAK OF 50KNOTS AS IT CRESTS THE ARC. AFTERWARD, IT WILL RAPIDLY DECAY AS IT GETS RAPIDLY ABSORBED INTO THE LARGER AND MUCH MORE DOMINANT TC 26S LEADING TO DISSIPATION BY 36H, POSSIBLY SOONER.
27S. THE NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN FAIR AGREEMENT WITH AFUM A SEVERE OUTLIER TO THE RIGHT AFTER 24H. ALL OTHER MODELS ARE IN TIGHT AGREEMENT UNTIL 36H AS THE COMPLEX DYNAMICS OF THE BINARY INTERACTION BEGINS, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST.
TC 27S. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) SHOWS THE SYSTEM HAS MOSTLY MAINTAINED CONVECTIVE SIGNATURE ON THE WESTERN SIDE AS TC 27S MOVED SLIGHTLY NORTHWEST IN THE WEAK STEERING ENVIRONMENT. TC 26S(SEROJA) IS CURRENTLY 650KM TO THE EAST OF TC 26S.
INVEST 91S. INVEST 91S IS IN A MARGINAL ENVIRONMENT FOR TROPICAL DEVELOPMENT WITH GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW ALOFT AND WARM (29-30C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES OFFSET BY STRONG (25-30KTS) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS). GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT INVEST 91S WILL CONSOLIDATE AND INTENSIFY OVER THE NEXT 24-48 HOURS AS IT TRACKS TO THE SOUTHEAST UNDER AN AREA OF WEAK (10-20KTS) VWS. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1005 MB.
INVEST 92P. INVEST 92P IS IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR TROPICAL DEVELOPMENT WITH WARM (29-30C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES, LOW (5-10KTS) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS), AND EXCELLENT POLEWARD OUTFLOW. GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT INVEST 92P WILL CONSOLIDATE AS IT TRACKS TO THE SOUTHEAST, REMAINING LARGELY ASYMMETRIC, POTENTIALLY REACHING WARNING THRESHOLD IN THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS.
