WESTERN NORTH PACIFIC: TY 20W(MINDULLE). WARNING 23 ISSUED AT 28/03UTC
SIGNIFICANT FORECAST CHANGES: THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE FORECAST FROM THE PREVIOUS WARNING. FORECAST DISCUSSION: TY 20W WILL CONTINUE A GENERALLY NORTHWARD TRACK AND THEN TURN NORTHEASTWARD AFTER 36H AS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE BUILDING TO THE SOUTHEAST TAKES A MORE NORTHEAST-SOUTHWEST ORIENTATION. AFTER 48H, THE SYSTEM WILL ACCELERATE ON ITS NORTHEASTWARD TRACK AS A MID-LATITUDE TROUGH APPROACHES FROM THE WEST. AS THE EYEWALL CONTINUES TO CONSTRICT FOLLOWING THE COMPLETION OF AN EYEWALL REPLACEMENT CYCLE AND THE SYSTEM CONTINUES TO TRACK, TY 20W WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN INTENSITY REACHING A PEAK OF 110 KNOTS/CAT3 AROUND 36H. AFTERWARDS, INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND A DRY AIR MASS TO THE WEST WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN THE SYSTEM, REACHING 80 KNOTS/CAT 1 BY 96H. AT THIS POINT, TY 20W WILL BEGIN TO INTERACT WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE AND BEGIN EXTRATROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) WHICH IT WILL COMPLETE NO LATER THAN 120H.

IF NEEDED CLICK ON THE IMAGERY TO GET IT ANIMATED
SATELLITE ANALYSIS, INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY DISCUSSION: ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) DEPICTS AN IMPROVING SYSTEM WITH ROBUST RADIAL OUTFLOW AND A RAGGED EYE FEATURE. TY 20W CONTINUES TO TRACK GENERALLY NORTHWARD WITHIN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT OF WARM SEA SURFACE AND LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 95 KNOTS/CAT 2, SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN THE PGTW CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATE OF 5.0(90 KTS), AND IS HEDGED SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN ADT (102 KTS). THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON THE RAGGED EYE FEATURE IN MSI AND IS SUPPORTED BY MULTIPLE AGENCY FIX POSITIONS.
MODEL DISCUSSION: NUMERICAL MODEL TRACK GUIDANCE IS IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH ONLY A 93 KM CROSS-TRACK SPREAD AT 48H, AND ONLY INCREASING TO 260 KM AT 120H. HOWEVER, THE ALONG-TRACK SPREAD DOES BEGIN TO INCREASE AT 96H AS MODELS BEGIN TO DISAGREE ON TRACK SPEED AS THE SYSTEM UNDERGOES ETT. INTENSITY GUIDANCE IS ALSO IN GOOD AGREEMENT, WITH ALMOST ALL MODELS SHOWING AN INCREASE IN INTENSITY PEAKING BY 48H FOLLOWED BY A DECREASING TREND FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST. THE FORECAST INTENSITY IS THEREFORE PLACED CLOSE TO CONSENSUS.
WESTERN NORTH PACIFIC. INVEST 91W UP-GRADED TO MEDIUM AT 28/01UTC
AN AREA OF CONVECTION (INVEST 91W) HAS PERSISTED NEAR 21.3N 153.2E, APPROXIMATELY 1250 KM NORTHEAST OF GUAM. MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) AND A 272107Z SSMIS 91GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT PERSISTENT CONVECTION OFFSET TO THE SOUTHEASTERN PERIPHERY OF AN EXPOSED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION (LLC). A 272143Z METOP-A ASCAT PASS SHOWS HIGHER WINDS IN THE EASTERN HEMISPHERE OF THE ELONGATED LLC. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS INDICATES GENERALLY FAVORABLE CONDITIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT, WITH ROBUST EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW AND WARM (30C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES (SST) BEING OFFSET BY MODERATE (15-20 KTS) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS). NUMERICAL MODELS AGREE THAT 91W WILL TRACK NORTH-NORTHEAST OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS, BUT DISAGREE REGARDING INTENSIFICATION, WITH GFS AND NAVGEM SHOWING INTENSIFICATION BUT ECMWF AND JMA REMAINING BELOW WARNING CRITERIA. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 10 TO 15 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1010 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS MEDIUM.
