Residents in low-lying areas & steep slopes must remain alert & seek evacuation for possible life-threatening flash floods, mudslides & landslides due to the anticipated heavy rains brought about by this system. Precautionary measures must be initiated if necessary. Possible coastal Storm Surge flooding of less than 4 feet above normal tide levels...accompanied by large and dangerous battering waves...is possible along the coastal areas of Hainan, Gulf Of Tonkin and Vietnam. Very minimal damage is likely on this type of storm surge.

  • JTWC (US NAVY & AIR FORCE) REMARKS:

  • REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 2PM (06 GMT) SAT 17 JULY POSITION: 20.2N 107.4E.
    *TROPICAL STORM 03W (CONSON), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 100 NM EAST-
    SOUTHEAST OF HANOI, VIETNAM, HAS TRACKED NORTH-NORTHWESTWARD AT 10
    KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
    IMAGERY DEPICTS AN EXPOSED LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH
    DEEP CONVECTION SHEARED 20 NM SOUTHWEST OF THE CENTER. BASED ON THIS
    IMAGERY, THE 17/00Z POSITION WAS RELOCATED 28 NM NORTHEAST OF THE
    17/00Z WARNING POSITION. THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN BOTH THE
    CURRENT POSITION AND THE 6-HOUR MOTION. RECENT IMAGERY INDICATES
    THE SYSTEM HAS RETURNED TO A NORTHWESTWARD TRACK. THE CURRENT
    INTENSITY IS BASED ON DVORAK ESTIMATES RANGING FROM 45 TO 55 KNOTS
    AS WELL AS A 170209Z ASCAT IMAGE, WHICH SHOWED 45 KNOT UNFLAGGED
    WINDS OVER THE NORTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE. TS 03W IS FORECAST TO TRACK
    NORTHWESTWARD UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF THE LOW- TO MID-LEVEL
    SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AND SHOULD MAKE LANDFALL NEAR 17/12Z. THE SYSTEM
    WILL WEAKEN RAPIDLY OVER LAND AND WILL DISSIPATE BY TAU 24. THERE
    ARE NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THE TRACK PHILOSOPHY SINCE THE
    PREVIOUS WARNING. BASED ON THE MINOR RELOCATION, THE TRACK WAS
    SHIFTED NORTHWARD BUT IS PARALLEL TO THE 17/00Z FORECAST
    TRACK..
