AG2 TROPICAL REPORT SEPTEMBER 20 2013







MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI//
SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT REISSUED//
REF/A/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI/191651Z SEP 13//
AMPN/REF IS TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT//
RMKS/
1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN A
275 NM RADIUS OF 16.7N 146.9E WITHIN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS.
AVAILABLE DATA DOES NOT JUSTIFY ISSUANCE OF NUMBERED TROPICAL
CYCLONE WARNINGS AT THIS TIME. WINDS IN THE AREA ARE ESTIMATED TO
BE 18 TO 23 KNOTS. METSAT IMAGERY AT 201132Z INDICATES THAT A
CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 16.2N 146.7E. THE SYSTEM IS
MOVING NORTHWARD AT 05 KNOTS.
2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 15.5N
148.5E IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 16.2N 146.7E, APPROXIMATELY 195 NM NORTH-
NORTHEAST OF ANDERSEN AFB, GUAM. RECENT INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY
REVEALS DEEP CONVECTION TO THE NORTHEAST OF A BROAD, POORLY DEFINED
LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). ANOTHER CONVECTIVE BANDING
DISPLAYED TO THE SOUTHWEST OF THE CENTER IS WRAPPING INTO THE
AFOREMENTIONED DEEP CONVECTION AREA. A 201115Z ASCAT PASS DEPICTS AN
ELONGATED, NORTHEAST-SOUTHWEST ORIENTED TROUGH OVER MARIANA ISLANDS
WITH WINDS 05 TO 10 KNOTS IN THE CENTER AND 30 TO 35 KNOTS ACROSS
THE SOUTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES STRONG
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS), OVER 30 KNOTS TO THE NORTHEAST QUADRANT
WHILE VWS REMAINS MODERATE TO HIGH AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS IN THE CENTER
OF THE DISTURBANCE. DYNAMIC MODEL GUIDANCE INDICATES THE DEVELOPMENT
OF A MODERATE TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS.
MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 18 TO 23 KNOTS.
MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1001 MB. DUE TO
THE INCREASED CONSOLIDATION OF THE LLCC, THE POTENTIAL FOR
DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24
HOURS REMAINS HIGH.
