INVEST 98S. STRONG OUTFLOW, LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (<15KTS) AND WARM (29-30C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES (SST) CREATE FAVORABLE CONDITIONS FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT. GLOBAL MODELS INDICATE INVEST 98S WILL TRACK WESTWARD AND CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY.
INVEST 98S. 25/0550UTC. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED IMAGERY AND A 242118Z SSMIS 91GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT A CONSOLIDATING LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION WITH PERSISTENT DEEP CONVECTION.
INVEST 94P. MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 250357Z SSMI 85GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT DEEP AND FLARING CONVECTION OBSCURING A BROAD LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION (LLC) WITH MINOR LOW-LEVEL BANDING. ANALYSES INDICATE AN OVERALL UNFAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT CHARACTERIZED BY ROBUST POLEWARD OUTFLOW ALOFT, AND WARM (29-30C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES OFFSET BY HIGH (30-40KT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS). GLOBAL MODELS GENERALLY INDICATE THAT INVEST 94P WILL PROPAGATE EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD WITH MINIMAL CONSOLIDATION OR STRENGTHENING.
25/06UTC. JTWC HAS UP-GRADED INVEST 98S TO HIGH WHEREAS INVEST 94P REMAINS LOW. 3HOURLY SATELLITE BULLETINS ARE ISSUED FOR 98S.
