10S(JOSHUA). WARNING 4. PEAK INTENSITY OF 40KNOTS FORECAST WITHIN THE NEXT 36HOURS BEFORE STEADY WEAKENING.
11P(KIMI). WARNING 2. TC 11P IS FORECAST TO TRACK SLOWLY SOUTHWARD THROUGH 12H WITHIN A COMPETING STEERING ENVIRONMENT BUT SHOULD GRADUALLY TURN SOUTHWESTWARD THEN WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AS A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE BUILDS TO THE SOUTH.TC 11P IS EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY TO A PEAK INTENSITY OF 60 KNOTS BY 24H WITH RAPID WEAKENING OVER LAND AND DISSIPATION BY 48H. THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY IN THE PEAK INTENSITY AS MIDGET CYCLONES CAN RAPIDLY INTENSIFY UNEXPECTEDLY.
12S(ELOISE). WARNING 1. 12S IS FORECAST TO TRACK WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD ALONG THE NORTHERN FLANK OF A DEEP-LAYERED SUBTROPICAL RIDGE ENTRENCHED TO THE SOUTH.12S IS FORECAST TO STEADILY INTENSIFY TO A PEAK OF 55 KNOTS BY 48H AS IT APPROACHES THE NORTHEAST COAST OF MADAGASCAR. HOWEVER, THE SYSTEM MAY PEAK HIGHER AFTER 48H PRIOR TO MAKING LANDFALL NEAR 72H SOUTH OF ANTALAHA. AFTER 72H, TC 12S WILL RAPIDLY WEAKEN OVER THE MOUNTAINOUS TERRAIN OF MADAGASCAR WITH DISSIPATION ANTICIPATED BY 96H. TC 12S IS FORECAST TO RE-INTENSIFY AS IT EMERGES OVER THE MOZAMBIQUE CHANNEL NEAR 108H.
17/06UTC.
10P(JOSHUA). TRACK GUIDANCE. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF NVGI AND EGRI, WHICH TURN THE SYSTEM SOUTHWARD AFTER 72H, THE BULK OF THE GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH A 200/280KM SPREAD IN SOLUTIONS AFTER 72H. CONSEQUENTLY, THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK.
11P(KIMI) TRACK GUIDANCE.GUIDANCE REMAINS IN POOR AGREEMENT WITH A LARGE SPREAD IN SOLUTIONS AND TWO DISCRETE GROUPS OF TRACKERS. UEMN, NVGM AND AEMN INDICATE A SOUTHWARD TO SOUTHEASTWARD TRACK THAT HOLDS THE SYSTEM OFFSHORE WHILE AVNO, EEMN, ECMF AND AFUM TRACK THE SYSTEM OVER LAND, SIMILAR TO THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK. OVERALL, THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK BASED ON THE LARGE SPREAD IN MODEL SOLUTIONS AND THE SOMEWHAT ERRATIC MOTION OBSERVED SO FAR.
12S(ELOISE). TRACK AND INTENSITY GUIDANCE. GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT WITH A 185-260KM SPREAD IN SOLUTIONS FROM 96H TO 120H. IF YOU EXCLUDE NVGM, THE SPREAD IS ONLY 55/95KM IN THE EXTENDED TAUS. CONSEQUENTLY, CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK IS HIGH.
