  • JTWC (US NAVY & AIR FORCE) REMARKS:

  • REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 2PM (06 GMT) MON 19 JULY POSITION: 15.3N 117.1E.
    *ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY
    INDICATES THAT DEEP CONVECTION HAS WANED DIURNALLY WITH DISORGANIZED
    BURSTS OF DEEP CONVECTION OVER THE LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
    (LLCC). ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY CONTINUES TO DEPICT GOOD
    OUTFLOW WITH POLEWARD OUTFLOW ENHANCED BY UPPER-LEVEL LOWS NEAR
    TAIWAN AND OKINAWA. THERE IS FAIR CONFIDENCE IN THE CURRENT POSITION
    BASED ON A 190128Z ASCAT IMAGE INDICATING AN ELONGATED BUT DEFINED
    LLCC. THE CURRENT INTENSITY OF 30 KNOTS IS BASED ON THE ASCAT DATA
    ALONG WITH DVORAK ESTIMATES RANGING FROM 25 TO 30 KNOTS FROM PGTW,
    KNES AND RJTD. TD 04W IS TRACKING ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN PERIPHERY
    OF THE LOW- TO MID-LEVEL SUBTROPICAL RIDGE WHICH EXTENDS OVER
    TAIWAN. TD 04W IS FORECAST TO TURN NORTHWESTWARD TO NORTH-
    NORTHWESTWARD IN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS, AND IS EXPECTED TO MAKE
    LANDFALL NEAR HONG KONG. THERE IS QUITE A BIT OF UNCERTAINTY IN
    EXACT TRACK AND LANDFALL LOCATION WITH ABOUT A 280 NM SPREAD IN
    MODEL GUIDANCE AT TAU 72. JGSM IS THE WESTERN-MOST OUTLIER AND
    INDICATES LANDFALL NORTH OF HAINAN ISLAND WHILE GFS IS THE EASTERN-
    MOST OUTLIER AND SHOWS LANDFALL JUST EAST OF HONG KONG. THE OFFICIAL
    FORECAST IS POSITIONED SLIGHTLY LEFT OF THE MODEL CONSENSUS TO
    ACCOUNT FOR THE EXCESSIVE NORTHWARD TRACK OF GFS. THE SYSTEM IS
    FORECAST TO INTENSIFY SLOWLY THROUGH TAU 24 AS IT CONSOLIDATES THEN
    SHOULD REACH A PEAK INTENSITY OF 55 KNOTS BY TAU 48....
