02W(SURIGAE). WARNING 23 ISSUED AT 19/03UTC.ANALYSIS INDICATES A SLIGHTLY MORE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH THE LOW (5-10KTS) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS) AND WARM (29-30C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES (SSTS) IN THE PHILIPPINE SEA. THE IMPROVED RADIAL OUTFLOW IS NOW ENHANCING SLIGHT DEVELOPMENT AFTER A MIDLATITUDE TROUGH MIGRATED TO THE NORTHEAST AS SURIGAE TRACKS SLOWLY ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST. TY 02W IS CONTINUING TO TRACK NORTH-NORTHWEST IN A WEAK STEERING ENVIRONMENT AS THE STR ELONGATES MERIDIONALLY THROUGH 36/48H.HIGHER VWS, SLIGHTLY COOLER SSTS, AND DIMINISHING OUTFLOW ALOFT WILL BE THE PRIMARY CAUSE TO GRADUAL WEAKENING, DOWN TO 90KNOTS/CAT2 BY 72H. AFTER 72H, TY SURIGAE WILL CREST THE AXIS OF THE STR AND ACCELERATE NORTHEASTWARD. ONCE SURIGAE MOVES TOWARD THE HIGHER LATITUDES, IT WILL UNDERGO EXTRATROPICAL TRANSITION AS VWS INCREASES TO +30KNOTS, SSTS DECREASE TO 24-25C, WHICH WILL ULTIMATELY LEAD TO A DECREASE OF INTENSITY TO 75KNOTS/CAT1 BY 96H.
02W(SURIGAE). THE ALONG TRACK ERROR INCREASES AS IT MOVES NEAR A COL REGION TO THE NORTH AND THEN ROUNDS THE APEX OF THE STR AXIS BY 72H. NUMERICAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH A GRADUAL, AND EVEN CROSS-TRACK SPREAD TO 225KM BY 72H. THE GFS ENSEMBLE REMAINS THE FAR RIGHT OUTLIER, LENDING FAIR CONFIDENCE IN THIS PORTION OF THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK, WHICH IS LAID CLOSE TO AND SLIGHTLY LEFT OF THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS.THE NUMERICAL MODELS REMAIN FAIRLY TIGHT IN AGREEMENT AND ONLY SPREAD TO 250KM BY 96H, LENDING FAIR CONFIDENCE DURING THIS TIME. HOWEVER, BEYOND 96H ALONG TRACK / CROSS TRACK ERRORS START INCREASING WITH A GREATER SPREAD TO 415KM AS THE SYSTEM CONTINUES EXTRATROPICAL TRANSITION, LENDING LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST.
