17P(LUCAS). WARNING 9. THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE BASED ON THE EXPOSED LLC IN THE EIR LOOP. THE INITIAL INTENSITY OF 45KTS IS EXTRAPOLATED FROM 012038UTC ASCAT PARTIAL PASS NEAR THE CENTER AND SUPPORTED BY A 020040Z ADT ESTIMATE OF 47KTS. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES STRONG (35KNOTS+) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR PARTLY OFFSET BY ROBUST POLEWARD OUTFLOW. TC 17P IS FORECAST TO TRACK SOUTHEASTWARD ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF A NEAR- EQUATORIAL RIDGE THROUGH 24H. AFTERWARD. THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE TO THE SOUTHEAST WILL ASSUME STEERING AND DRIVE THE SYSTEM SOUTHWARD THEN SOUTHWESTWARD, PASSING JUST OFF THE SOUTHERN TIP OF NEW CALEDONIA AROUND 48H. TC LUCAS IS EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY WEAKEN AS THE WIND SHEAR FURTHER INCREASES AND SST VALUES COOL TO 25C, LEADING TO INTENSITY FALLING DOWN BELOW 35KNOTS BY 72H, POSSIBLY SOONER.
17P(LUCAS). NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT LEADING TO AN OVERALL FAIR CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST.
18S. WARNING 7. THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE BASED ON A LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION (LLC) FEATURE EVIDENT ON AN ABOM COMPOSITE RADAR LOOP THAT ALSO SHOWED ORGANIZED RAIN BANDS WRAPPING INTO THE WELL-DEFINED LLCC. THE INITIAL INTENSITY OF 30 KNOTS IS BASED ON THE SUSTAINED CONVECTIVE STRUCTURE AND EXTRAPOLATED FROM MULTIPLE SURFACE OBSERVATIONS ALONG THE COAST.18S WILL CONTINUE ON ITS CURRENT TRACK THROUGH 24H UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF A LOW- TO MID- LEVEL SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE SOUTH, PASSING APPROXIMATELY 100KM SOUTH OF LEARMONTH AROUND 021400UTC. AFTERWARD, AS 18S EXITS INTO THE INDIAN OCEAN, THE STORM MOTION WILL BECOME QUASI-STATIONARY (QS) AS A SECONDARY STR BUILDING TO THE SOUTHWEST COMPETES FOR STEERING, RESULTING IN A VERY SLOW WESTWARD TRACK TO 48H. AFTER 48H, THE SECONDARY STR WEAKENS, ALLOWING THE PRIMARY STR TO RESUME STEERING AND DRIVE THE TC SOUTHWESTWARD THEN SOUTHWARD. TC 18S IS EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN INTENSITY WHILE IT TRACKS OVER LAND BUT WILL INTENSIFY TO 35 KNOTS AFTER IT EXITS INTO THE WARM (28C) INDIAN OCEAN. THE WARM SST PLUS LOW WIND SHEAR WILL PROMOTE STEADY INTENSIFICATION TO A PEAK OF 50 KNOTS BY 72H. AFTERWARD, COOLING SST AND INCREASING VWS WILL GRADUALLY ERODE THE SYSTEM DOWN TO 40KNOTS BY 120H.
18S. NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH SPREADING TO OVER 425KM BY 120H. THIS, PLUS THE UNCERTAINTY IN THE QUASI STATIONARY MOTION IN THE MID-PORTION, LENDS AN OVERALL LOW CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST.
18S. 02/0150UTC. A 12-HR ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS THE SYSTEM MAINTAINED ITS DEEP CONVECTIVE STRUCTURE AS IT TRACKED OVER LAND TOWARD LEARMONTH/WESTERN AUSTRALIA.
REMNANTS 13S. 01/2356UTC. THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION IS STILL IDENTIFIED BUT HAS BEEN ALMOST COMPLETELY DEVOID OF DEEP CONVECTION.
