TY 20W(MINDULLE) losing tropical features//Arabian Sea: TC 03B(GULAB) developing an eye and intensifying//Atlantic: 18L(SAM) at Super Hurricane intensity again,01/15utc



WESTERN NORTH PACIFIC: TY 20W(MINDULLE). WARNING 37 ISSUED AT 01/15UTC

FORECAST REASONING.  SIGNIFICANT FORECAST CHANGES: THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE FORECAST FROM THE PREVIOUS WARNING.  FORECAST DISCUSSION: TYPHOON MINDULLE WILL CONTINUE ON ITS CURRENT TRACK FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST AND THE UNFAVORABLE  ENVIRONMENT WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN THE SYSTEM. CONCURRENTLY, BY  12H, IT WILL BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) AND BY 30H WILL  TRANSFORM INTO A 40-KNOT COLD CORE LOW WITH AN EXPANSIVE WIND FIELD AS  IT PASSES SOUTHEAST OF THE KURIL ISLANDS.

SATELLITE ANALYSIS, INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY DISCUSSION: ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED (EIR) SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS THE SYSTEM CONTINUED TO GRADUALLY DECAY AS EVIDENCED BY UNRAVELING RAIN BANDS AND WARMING CENTRAL CONVECTION. THE NORTHERN PERIPHERIES HAVE ELONGATED WITH EXPOSURE TO THE STRONG PREVAILING WESTERLIES. THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH MEDIUM CONFIDENCE ON A CLUSTER OF WARM CENTRAL PIXELS IN THE EIR LOOP THAT LINED UP WELL WITH A NOTCH  FEATURE IN THE 1049Z AMSU-B MICROWAVE IMAGE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY  OF 65KNOTS/CAT 1 IS AVERAGED WITH MEDIUM CONFIDENCE FROM THE AGENCY AND  AUTOMATED DVORAK ESTIMATES AND REFLECTS THE 6-HR DEGRADATION.  ANALYSIS INDICATES THE ENVIRONMENT IS UNFAVORABLE WITH INCREASING  VWS, COOLING SSTS, AND THE INFLUX OF COLD DRY AIR AT THE LOWER  LEVELS. THE CYCLONE IS TRACKING ALONG THE NORTHWESTERN PERIPHERY OF  THE STR TO THE SOUTHEAST.

NORTH INDIAN OCEAN/ARABIAN SEA: TC 03B(GULAB). WARNING 15 ISSUED AT 01/15UTC

FORECAST REASONING.  SIGNIFICANT FORECAST CHANGES: THERE ARE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE FORECAST FROM THE PREVIOUS WARNING.  FORECAST DISCUSSION: TC GULAB WILL CONTINUE ON ITS CURRENT TRACK TOWARD THE GULF OF OMAN UP TO 48H UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE(STR). AFTERWARD, AS THE STR BUILDS, IT WILL DRIVE THE CYCLONE SOUTHWESTWARD INTO OMAN, MAKING LANDFALL JUST NORTH OF MUSCAT AROUND  54H. THE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WILL PROMOTE INTENSIFICATION TO A  PEAK OF 65KNOTS/CAT 1 AT 24-36H. AFTERWARD, DRY AIR INTRUSION FROM THE  MIDDLE EAST WILL BEGIN TO ERODE THE SYSTEM. AFTER LANDFALL,  INTERACTION WITH THE DESERT LANDSCAPE OF OMAN WILL ACCELERATE ITS  DEGRADATION LEADING TO DISSIPATION BY TAU 96.

HU 18L(SAM). NHC/MIAMI WROTE: "Sam remains a powerful category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson  Hurricane Wind Scale over the subtropical central Atlantic.  Satellite images show that the hurricane still has a circular and  quite distinct eye and closed eyewall.  However, an 0827 UTC SSMIS  pass indicated that a dry slot was present on the eastern side of  the circulation between the eyewall and rainbands.  The latest  Dvorak classifications from TAFB, SAB, and CIMSS at the University  of Wisconsin range from 102-115 kt.  However, Air Force  reconnaissance data from earlier this morning showed that the winds  were much higher, and in fact, the Dvorak estimates have had a low  bias compared to the Hurricane Hunter data for the past 24-36 hours.  Therefore, the initial intensity is held at 130 kt for now.  Another  Air Force Hurricane Hunter aircraft is scheduled to investigate Sam  this afternoon.  An ASCAT-A pass from around 12Z indicated that  Sam's tropical-storm-force wind radii have expanded, and the initial  wind radii were adjusted based on that data.  In addition, the eye  of Sam passed about 60 n mi east of NOAA buoy 41049 earlier this  morning.  The buoy reported a minimum pressure of 998 mb, maximum  winds of around 45 kt, gusts to 62 kt, and maximum seas of about 22  ft."
