3-DAY FORECAST OUTLOOK & ANALYSIS*

NESAT (PEDRING) is expected to continue moving on a straight-Westerly motion during the next 24 hours...turning WNW later in the forecast with some decrease on its forward speed. On the forecast track, the center of the storm will continue moving across the Philippine Sea during the next couple of days...making landfall along Palanan-Divilacan Bay in Isabela on Tuesday Afternoon. NESAT will then traverse Northern Luzon, cutting across Southern Cagayan, Kalinga, Abra Tuesday evening...and exit Northern Luzon through Ilocos Norte by early Wednesday.

Maximum Sustained Winds (1-min. avg) have increased to 100 km/hr (55 knots) with higher gusts. NESAT is a strong Tropical Storm (TS) on the Saffir-Simpson Tropical Cyclone Scale. Gradual strengthening will continue during the next couple of days...and NESAT could become a Typhoon later today.

Tropical Storm Force Winds (62-117 km/hr) extend outward up to 150 kilometers (80 nautical miles) from the center. NESAT is now an average-sized tropical cyclone with a diameter of 500 kilometers (270 nautical miles). Possible continued increase in its circulation size is likely as the system moves into the warm Philippine Sea in the next couple of days.

The following is the summary of the 3-day forecast outlook on this system:

MONDAY EARLY MORNING:  Maintains its Westerly course across the warm Central Philippine Sea...upgraded to a Category 1 Typhoon...about 386 km ENE of Pandan, Catanduanes, PH [2AM SEP 26: 15.2N 127.6 @ 150kph].
TUESDAY EARLY MORNING:  Turns WNW as it passes well to the north of Bicol...approaching the coast of Isabela & Northern Aurora...almost a Super Typhoon (Category 4)...about 178 km SE of Palanan Bay, Isabela, PH [2AM SEP 27: 16.5N 124.0E @ 220kph].
WEDNESDAY EARLY MORNING:  Weakens to a Category 1 typhoon as it traverses Northern Luzon...in the vicinity of Ilocos Provinces...about 46 km SSE of Laoag City, Ilocos Norte, PH [2AM SEP 28: 17.8 120.7E @ 150kph].

**Alternate Forecast Scenario (AFS): There is a possibility that NESAT (PEDRING) will continue moving Westward and make landfall over Aurora Province instead...cutting across the Northern Part of Central Luzon...and exiting Benguet-La Union Area. This scenario may happen if the High Pressure Steering Ridge northeast of the typhoon will not weaken & extends westward.


NESAT's (PEDRING) CLOSEST POINT OF APPROACH (CPA)
*


ISABELA:  along Divilacan-Palanan Bay Area...[ETA: 2:00 PM Local Time, Tuesday].
SOUTHERN CAGAYAN:  Near to the south Tuguegarao City [ETA: 7:00-8:00 PM Tuesday].

*Please be reminded that the Forecast Outlook changes every 6 hours, and the Day 3 Forecast Track have an average error of 250 km...while the wind speed forecast error, averages 35 kph per day. Therefore, a turn to the left or right of its future track and changes in its wind speed must be anticipated from time to time.
