13S. WARNING 3. IS SLOWLY DRIFTING TO THE SOUTH IN A VERY WEAK STEERING ENVIRONMENT.DUE TO THE HIGH SHEAR ENVIRONMENT, THERE IS LITTLE PROSPECT OF NEAR-TERM INTENSIFICATION THROUGH 36H. DECREASING SHEAR AND INCREASING OUTFLOW SHOULD ALLOW FOR THE SYSTEM TO INTENSIFY TO A PEAK OF 45 KNOTS FOR A SHORT TIME NEAR 96H, BEFORE INCREASING SHEAR AND COOLER WATERS ONCE MORE TAKE THEIR TOLL AND WEAKEN THE SYSTEM.
12S(ELOISE). WARNING 10( ISSUED AT 21/21UTC. WARNING 11 WILL BE ISSUED AT 22/09UTC). INTENSIFYING SYSTEM.FORECAST TO TRACK SOUTHWEST THROUGH DURATION OF THE FORECAST PERIOD, ALONG THE NORTHWEST PERIPHERY OF A DEEP-LAYER SUBTROPICAL RIDGE CENTERED TO THE SOUTHEAST. EXPECTED TO MAKE LANDFALL SHORTLY BEFORE 23/06UTC JUST SOUTH OF BEIRA, MOZAMBIQUE.SHOULD BE ABLE TO INTENSIFY RAPIDLY, REACHING A PEAK OF 75 KNOTS JUST PRIOR TO LANDFALL. AFTER LANDFALL, THE SYSTEM WILL RAPIDLY WEAKEN AND ULTIMATELY THE INTENSITY WILL FALL BELOW 35KNOTS BY 25/18UTC. THERE IS A FAIR AMOUNT OF UNCERTAINTY IN THE PEAK INTENSITY DUE TO THE LIMITED TIME REMAINING OVER WATER, THE TIMING OF THE DECREASE OF THE CONVERGENT FLOW TO THE SOUTH, AND THE DISRUPTION OF THE INFLOW FROM THE NORTH DUE TO PROXIMITY TO LAND AFTER 22/18UTC.
14S.WARNING 2.ANIMATED RADAR DATA FROM THE BROOME AND PORT HEDLAND RADARS INDICATED A VERY WEAK ROTATION CROSSING THE SHORE NEAR SANDFIRE, AUSTRALIA, BUT THE SIGNATURE IS NOT CONCLUSIVE AND THUS LENDS ONLY LOW CONFIDENCE TO THE INITIAL POSITION.14S IS IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING LANDFALL ALONG THE NORTHWEST COAST OF AUSTRALIA AT THE 220000Z HOUR, AND WILL CONTINUE TRACKING INLAND ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A DEEP-LAYER SUBTROPICAL RIDGE CENTERED TO THE EAST. THE SYSTEM WILL STEADILY, BUT SLOWLY, WEAKEN OVER THE GREAT SANDY DESERT AND BE BELOW 35KNOTS BY 23/12UTC, THOUGH REMNANTS OF THE SYSTEM ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TRACKING INLAND INTO WEST-CENTRAL AUSTRALIA.DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE INITIAL POSITION, AND THE RESULTING POSSIBILITY OF A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME OVER WATER, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST.
21/2121UTC. MICROWAVE DEPICTED THE SHEARED SIGNATURE OF 13S.
21/2238UTC. MICROWAVE DEPICTING THE IMPROVING SIGNATURE OF 12S(ELOISE).
14S(NONAME).22/0027UTC. ASCAT DEPICTED A POORLY ORGANIZED SYSTEM BUT WITH 45KNOTS WINDS OFF THE WESTERN AUSTRALIAN COAST.
13S. MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN POOR AGREEMENT WITH A WIDE SPREAD IN POTENTIAL FORECAST SOLUTIONS. THE GFS AND GFS ENSEMBLE REMAIN OUTLIERS, WITH A SOUTHEASTWARD TRACK THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD. THE NAVGEM AND HWRF CONTINUE TO INDICATE A NEARLY STRAIGHT POLEWARD TRACK INTO THE RIDGE, WHICH IS UNLIKELY. THE REMAINDER OF THE CONSENSUS MEMBERS DEPICT A SOUTH, THEN SOUTWEST TO WEST TRACK SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES IN ALONG-TRACK SPEED AND TIMING AND EXTENT OF THE TURN TO THE WEST. THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK LIES JUST WEST OF THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS AND NEAR THE ECMWF SOLUTION WITH LOW CONFIDENCE.
12S(ELOISE). NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT, WITH VERY LOW SPREAD(BELOW 100KM) THROUGH 72H.
14S. MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON THE OVERALL SCENARIO, BUT DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE INITIAL POSITION, AND THE RESULTING POSSIBILITY OF A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME OVER WATER, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST.
