19S. WARNING 1 ISSUED AT 05/09UTC.THROUGH 48H,19S WILL STEER SLOWLY SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD TO SOUTHWARD ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE(STR) POSITIONED TO THE EAST. THIS STR WILL WEAKEN AND TC 19S SHOULD SLOW, PERHAPS BECOME BRIEFLY QUASI- STATIONARY, THEN TRACK EAST-NORTHEASTWARD TO EASTWARD AS A NEAR- EQUATORIAL RIDGE (NER) ASSUMES CONTROL OF THE STEERING. AFTER 96H, THE STEERING RIDGE IS EXPECTED TO BUILD NORTHEAST OF THE SYSTEM WHICH SHOULD STEER IT EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD. 19S IS FORECAST TO RAPIDLY INTENSIFY STARTING BY 12H DURING THE DIURNAL MAXIMUM REACHING 95 KNOTS/US CATEGORY 2 BY 48H AND A PEAK INTENSITY OF 110 KNOTS/US CATEGORY 3 BY 72H WITH SLIGHT WEAKENING TREND THROUGH 120H.
NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS LIMITED AT THIS TIME DUE TO THE RAPID SPIN-UP BUT GENERALLY SUPPORTS THIS TRACK SCENARIO WITH HIGH UNCERTAINTY.
05/1030UTC. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS A RAPIDLY-CONSOLIDATING, COMPACT SYSTEM WITH DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING TIGHTLY INTO THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC).
05/0811UTC. MICROWAVE IMAGES REVEAL AN INTENSE CURVED BAND OF DEEP CONVECTION WRAPPING FROM THE WESTERN QUADRANT INTO THE NORTHERN QUADRANT OF THE SYSTEM WITH A SMALL CORE (APPROXIMATELY 100KM DIAMETER) SURROUNDING A DEVELOPING, RAGGED MICROWAVE EYE FEATURE.
