Tropical Cyclone Pam
WTPS21 PGTW 20150308 23:00z
MSGID/GENADMIN/JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI//
SUBJ/TROPICAL CYCLONE FORMATION ALERT//
RMKS/
1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN
200 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 5.6S 168.9E TO 12.9S 171.1E
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 28 TO 33 KNOTS. METSAT
IMAGERY AT 082100Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED
NEAR 7.7S 169.4E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 06
KNOTS.
2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 8.3S
169.3E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 7.7S 169.4E, APPROXIMATELY 770 NM
NORTHWEST OF NADI, FIJI. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE
IMAGERY SHOWS AN ELONGATED SIGNATURE WITH DEEPENED CONVECTION
ASSOCIATED WITH A SLOWLY-CONSOLIDATING LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
(LLCC). A 082017Z SSMIS MICROWAVE IMAGE REVEALS THE BULK OF
CONVECTIVE BANDING OVER THE NORTHERN SEMI-CIRCLE BROADLY WRAPPING
INTO THE LLCC. A 081857Z WINDSAT PASS SHOWS A 25 TO 30 KNOT
CIRCULATION WITH STRONGER WINDS UP TO 40 KNOTS WELL NORTH OF THE
SYSTEM. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A MARGINALLY FAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENT WITH MODERATE TO HIGH VERTICAL WIND SHEAR OFFSET BY GOOD
OUTFLOW. ADDITIONALLY, WARM SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES IN THE
AREA ARE CONDUCIVE FOR DEVELOPMENT. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS
ARE ESTIMATED AT 28 TO 33 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS
ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1000 MB. DUE TO PERSISTENT CONVECTION AND
IMPROVED ORGANIZATION, THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A
SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS HIGH.
3. THIS ALERT WILL BE REISSUED, UPGRADED TO WARNING OR CANCELLED BY
092300Z.//

REMARKS:
090900Z POSITION NEAR 8.7S 169.9E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 17P (SEVENTEEN), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 760 NM
NORTHWEST OF NADI, FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT 03 KNOTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY SHOWS AN EXPANSIVE AND ELONGATED SYSTEM WITH FORMATIVE
CONVECTIVE BANDS - MOSTLY FROM THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY - THAT ARE
FEEDING INTO A LARGE AND SLOWLY CONSOLIDATING LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION
CENTER. THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON A LOW REFLECTIVITY NOTCH
FEATURE ON A 090501Z GPM MICROWAVE IMAGE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS
BASED ON CONGRUENT DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM PGTW AND PHFO. UPPER-LEVEL
ANALYSIS INDICATES A MARGINALLY FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH MODERATE
TO HIGH (20-30 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS) OFFSET BY GOOD
EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW. THE CYCLONE IS CURRENTLY TRACKING SLOWLY ALONG
THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF A SHALLOW NEAR EQUATORIAL RIDGE TO THE NORTH.
AFTER TAU 24, A BUILDING SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST WILL
ASSUME STEERING AND DRIVE THE SYSTEM ON A MORE POLEWARD TRAJECTORY.
TC 17P IS EXPECTED TO STEADILY INTENSIFY AS VWS DECREASES AND OUTFLOW
IMPROVES WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF A POLEWARD OUTFLOW CHANNEL AS THE
CYCLONE TRACKS SOUTHWARD. RAPID INTENSIFICATION IS A DISTINCT
POSSIBILITY TOWARDS TAU 72 AS THE SYSTEM BECOMES EXP0SED TO THE
STRONG WESTERLIES, FURTHER ENHANCING THE POLEWARD VENTILATION. AFTER
TAU 96, TC 17P WILL TRACK MORE SOUTHEASTWARD AS THE STR IS WEAKENED
BY A MID-LATITUDE TROUGH. THE AVAILABLE NUMERIC GUIDANCE IS IN
OVERALL AGREEMENT IN THE LONG TERM, HOWEVER, THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT
SPREAD IN THE INITIAL PORTION OF THE FORECAST PRIOR TO THE TRANSITION
IN THE STEERING MECHANISM. IN VIEW OF THIS DISCREPANCY, THERE IS LOW
CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE
HEIGHT AT 090600Z IS 18 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 092100Z AND 100900Z.

REMARKS:
100300Z POSITION NEAR 10.0S 170.6E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 678 NM
NORTHWEST OF SUVA, FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 04 KNOTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY
DEPICTS A RAPIDLY CONSOLIDATING LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC)
WITH A CENTRAL DENSE OVERCAST FEATURE PERSISTING OVER THE CENTER. A
092157Z MHS METOP-B 89 GHZ IMAGE DEPICTS DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING
WRAPPING TIGHTLY INTO THE LLCC WITH A DEFINED CENTER, THEREFORE,
THERE IS GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE CURRENT POSITION. THE CURRENT
INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 65 KNOTS BASED ON DVORAK ESTIMATES OF 65
KNOTS (T4.0) FROM BOTH KNES AND PGTW. TC 17P IS TRACKING SLOWLY
SOUTHWARD ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AND
IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE TRACKING SOUTHWARD THROUGH TAU 72 THEN THE
SYSTEM SHOULD RE-CURVE SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD AS IT ENCOUNTERS A DEEP
SHORTWAVE TROUGH. DYNAMIC GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT, THEREFORE,
THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK. TC 17P IS
FORECAST TO RAPIDLY INTENSIFY THROUGH TAU 48 DUE TO IMPROVING
POLEWARD OUTFLOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE
TROUGH. AFTER TAU 72, TC 17P SHOULD WEAKEN AS IT ENCOUNTERS THE
TROUGH AND INCREASING VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO
BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) BY TAU 96 AND SHOULD COMPLETE
ETT NEAR TAU 120. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 100000Z IS 23
FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 101500Z AND 110300Z.//

REMARKS:
101500Z POSITION NEAR 10.8S 170.2E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 651 NM
NORTHWEST OF SUVA, FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 04
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED IR IMAGERY DEPICTS
TC 17P CONTINUES TO DEEPEN AND BECOME LARGER. A 101127Z TRMM SHOWS
THAT THE DEEPEST CONVECTION IS LOCATED ON THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF
A CONCEALED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER. LOCATION IS BASED ON THE
ABOVE MICROWAVE IMAGERY WITH FAIR CONFIDENCE. INTENSITY IS BASED ON
DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM ALL REPORTING AGENCIES. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS
CONTINUES TO SHOW THE SYSTEM WITH FAVORABLE RADIAL OUTFLOW AND
MODERATE (10 TO 20 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. THE TC PAM IS
CURRENTLY TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF AN EXTENSION OF A
SUB-TROPICAL RIDGE ANCHORED FAR TO THE EAST. EXPECT THE SYSTEM TO
CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY  AND TRACK SLOWLY SOUTHWARD OVER THE NEXT 72
HOURS, REACHING A PEAK INTENSITY OF 140 KNOTS AS THE UPPER LEVEL
ENVIRONMENT AS WELL AS OCEAN HEAT CONTENT REMAINS FAVORABLE FOR
CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT. BEYOND TAU 72, TC PAM WILL BEGIN TO BE
ENTRENCHED IN THE MID-LATITUDE WESTERLIES, BECOMING EXTRA-TROPICAL
IN NATURE BY THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. DYNAMIC NUMERICAL
GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO BE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT, WITH ONLY SOME
SLIGHT DISAGREEMENT IN THE TRACK OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS, WITH THE
OVERALL TRACK CONTINUING IN A SOUTHWARD DIRECTION. AS SUCH, THERE IS
GOOD CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK WHICH IS LAID CLOSE TO
THE MULTI-MODEL CONSENSUS. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT
101200Z IS 28 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 110300Z AND 111500Z.//

REMARKS:
102100Z POSITION NEAR 11.3S 170.0E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 699 NM NORTH-
NORTHEAST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-
SOUTHWESTWARD AT 05 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED
INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS A DEEP CENTRAL DENSE OVERCAST
WITH EXPANSIVE DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING INTO THE TIGHTLY
WRAPPED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). THE LOCATION IS BASED
ON A 101842Z SSMIS MICROWAVE EYE FEATURE WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE. THE
INITIAL INTENSITY OF 90 KNOTS IS BASED ON CONCURRING DVORAK
INTENSITY ESTIMATES FROM ALL AGENCIES. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS
CONTINUES TO SHOW THE SYSTEM WITH MODERATE (10 TO 20 KNOT) VERTICAL
WIND SHEAR OFFSET BY RADIAL OUTFLOW, WHICH IS EVIDENT ON WATER VAPOR
IMAGERY. TC PAM IS TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN EXTENSION OF THE SUB-
TROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST. THIS STR WILL BE THE DOMINANT
STEERING MECHANISM THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD
UNTIL THE SYSTEM EMBEDS IN THE MID-LATITUDE WESTERLIES. TC 17P WILL
CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS DUE TO A FAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENT WITH EXCELLENT OUTFLOW AND SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE (SST)
ABOVE 29 CELSIUS. BEYOND TAU 48, TC PAM WILL BEGIN TO WEAKEN AS IT
ROUNDS THE STR AXIS WHERE VWS WILL INCREASE AND SST BEGINS TO DROP
OFF. THE SYSTEM WILL BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) NEAR TAU
96 AS IT EMBEDS IN THE BAROCLINIC ZONE AND IS EXPECTED TO COMPLETE
ETT BY TAU 120. DYNAMIC MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE
OVERALL TRACK, THEREFORE, THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC
OFFICIAL FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 101800Z IS 28
FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 110300Z, 110900Z, 111500Z AND 112100Z. REFER

110300Z POSITION NEAR 11.2S 169.5E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 696 NM NORTH-
NORTHEAST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONIA, HAS TRACKED WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD
AT 04 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL
SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS A CONSOLIDATING SYSTEM WITH A DEVELOPING
EYE AND INTENSE DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING. A 102224Z METOP-A IMAGE
ALSO SHOWS TIGHTLY-CURVED BANDING WRAPPING INTO A MICROWAVE EYE
FEATURE, WHICH SUPPORTS THE INITIAL POSITION WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE.
THE INITIAL INTENSITY OF 100 KNOTS IS BASED ON DVORAK CURRENT
INTENSITY ESTIMATES AS HIGH AS 102 KNOTS. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS
INDICATES A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH NEAR-RADIAL OUTFLOW AND LOW
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS). TC PAM IS TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN
EXTENSION OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST. THIS STR WILL
BE THE DOMINANT STEERING MECHANISM THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE

REMARKS:
110900Z POSITION NEAR 11.4S 169.7E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 653 NM
NORTHWEST OF SUVA, FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD AT 02
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY (MSI) DEPICTS A WELL CONSOLIDATED SYSTEM WITH A DEVELOPING
EYE AND INTENSE DEEP CONVECTIVE BANDING. A 110519Z SSMIS IMAGE SHOWS
TIGHTLY-CURVED BANDING WRAPPING INTO A DEVELOPING MICROWAVE EYE
FEATURE WITH THE BULK OF THE DEEP CONVECTION IN THE NORTHWESTERN
QUADRANT. THE INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY IS BASED ON DVORAK
CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES FROM ALL REPORTING AGENCIES WITH HIGH
CONFIDENCE. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT
WITH NEAR-RADIAL VIGOROUS OUTFLOW AND MODERATE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR
(VWS). TC PAM IS TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN EXTENSION OF THE
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST. AS THE STR CONTINUES TO BUILD
INTO THE WEST, TC PAM WILL CONTINUE TO INTENSIFY RAPIDLY OVER THE
NEXT 36 HOURS DUE TO THE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT AND SEA SURFACE
TEMPERATURE (SST). IN THE EXTENDED FORECAST, TC 17P WILL BEGIN
TO WEAKEN AS IT ROUNDS THE STR AXIS WHERE VWS WILL INCREASE AND SST
BEGINS TO DROP OFF. THE SYSTEM WILL BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION
(ETT) NEAR TAU 96 AS IT BEGINS TO INTERACT WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE
AND IS EXPECTED TO COMPLETE ETT BY TAU 120. DYNAMIC MODEL GUIDANCE
IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE OVERALL TRACK, THEREFORE, THERE IS
HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC OFFICIAL FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT
WAVE HEIGHT AT 110600Z IS 33 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 111500Z,
112100Z, 120300Z AND 120900Z. REFER TO TROPICAL CYCLONE 18P (NATHAN)

REMARKS:
112100Z POSITION NEAR 12.3S 170.1E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 608 NM
NORTHWEST OF SUVA, FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT 06 KNOTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED (EIR) SATELLITE
IMAGERY DEPICTS TIGHTLY CURVED BANDING WRAPPING INTO A 30 NM RAGGED
EYE. AN 111534Z SSMI MICROWAVE IMAGE REVEALS EXTENSIVE DEEP
CONVECTION OVER THE EASTERN PERIPHERY AND AN APPARENT MICROWAVE EYE.
THE CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON THE EYE FEATURE WITH HIGH
CONFIDENCE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY REMAINS AT 115 KNOTS BASED ON AN
OVERALL ASSESSMENT OF DVORAK INTENSITY ESTIMATES FROM ALL REPORTING
AGENCIES. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES A POINT SOURCE LOCATED
DIRECTLY OVER THE SYSTEM SUSTAINING THE CONVECTION AND PROVIDING
ROBUST OUTFLOW. TC PAM IS CURRENTLY TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN
EXTENSION OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST. OVER THE NEXT
48 HOURS, FAVORABLE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST ALLOWING THE
SYSTEM TO FURTHER INTENSIFY LEADING TO A PEAK INTENSITY OF 140
KNOTS. BY TAU 72, THE SYSTEM WILL BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION
(ETT) AS IT INTERACTS WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE AND IS EXPECTED TO
COMPLETE ETT BY TAU 96. AVAILABLE MODEL GUIDANCE REMAINS IN GOOD
AGREEMENT, LENDING TO HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC OFFICIAL FORECAST.
MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 111800Z IS 36 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS

REMARKS:
120900Z POSITION NEAR 13.9S 170.0E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 556 NM WEST-
NORTHWEST OF SUVA, FIJI, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWARD AT 08 KNOTS OVER
THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED (EIR) SATELLITE
IMAGERY SHOWS THE SYSTEM HAS MAINTAINED A TIGHT DEGREE OF WRAP INTO A
WELL-DEFINED 20-NM EYE WHILE CONVECTIVE BANDS HAVE SLIGHTLY DEEPENED.
THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON THE EIR EYE FEATURE WITH HIGH
CONFIDENCE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS BASED ON AN OVERALL ASSESSMENT
OF DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM PGTW, KNES, AND, PHFO. UPPER-
LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE SYSTEM REMAINS IN A FAVORABLE
ENVIRONMENT WITH LOW TO MODERATE (10 TO 20 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR
EASILY OFFSET BY RADIAL OUTFLOW, AS EVIDENT ON THE WATER VAPOR
IMAGERY. TC PAM IS CURRENTLY TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN EXTENSION OF
THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST. OVER THE NEXT 36 HOURS,
FAVORABLE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST ALLOWING THE SYSTEM TO
FURTHER INTENSIFY, PEAKING AT 140 KNOTS. AFTER TAU 36, THE SYSTEM IS
EXPECTED TO START WEAKENING DUE TO INCREASING VWS AND COOLING SSTS,
AND BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION AS IT ENTERS THE BAROCLINIC ZONE.
HOWEVER, IT WILL STILL HAVE VERY INTENSE 80-KNOT WINDS WHEN IT
BECOMES A COLD CORE LOW BY TAU 72. AVAILABLE MODEL GUIDANCE REMAINS
IN TIGHT AGREEMENT, LENDING HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC OFFICIAL
FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 120600Z IS 40 FEET. NEXT
WARNINGS AT 121500Z, 122100Z, 130300Z AND 130900Z. REFER TO TROPICAL

REMARKS:
122100Z POSITION NEAR 15.5S 169.6E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 470 NM NORTH-
NORTHEAST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONI, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD
AT 09 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED
(EIR) SATELLITE IMAGERY CONTINUES TO DEPICT TIGHTLY CURVED
BANDING SURROUNDING A 15-NM EYE. THE CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON
THE EYE FEATURE IN THE EIR LOOP WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE. THE INITIAL
INTENSITY OF 140 KNOTS IS BASED ON DVORAK CURRENT INTENSITY
ESTIMATES OF T7.0 FROM PGTW AND KNES. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES
THE SYSTEM REMAINS IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH LOW TO MODERATE
(10 TO 20 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR EASILY OFFSET BY RADIAL OUTFLOW,
AS EVIDENT ON ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY. TC PAM IS TRACKING ALONG
THE WESTERN EXTENSION OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE TO THE EAST. OVER THE
NEXT 12 HOURS, FAVORABLE CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST ALLOWING
THE SYSTEM TO FURTHER INTENSIFY, PEAKING AT 150 KNOTS. AFTERWARDS,
THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO START WEAKENING DUE TO INCREASING VWS AND
COOLING SSTS, AND BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION AS IT ENTERS THE
BAROCLINIC ZONE. HOWEVER, IT WILL STILL HAVE VERY INTENSE 65-KNOT
WINDS WHEN IT BECOMES A COLD CORE LOW BY TAU 72. AVAILABLE MODEL
GUIDANCE REMAINS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT, LENDING HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE
JTWC OFFICIAL FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 121800Z
IS 44 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 130300Z, 130900Z, 131500Z AND 132100Z.

130900Z POSITION NEAR 17.5S 169.0E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 350 NM NORTH-
NORTHEAST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-SOUTHWESTWARD
AT 11 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY (MSI) CONTINUES TO DEPICT TIGHTLY CURVED BANDING SURROUNDING
A 15NM EYE. A 130719Z SSMIS IMAGE SHOWS INTENSE CONVECTION WITHIN A
SYMMETRIC CORE THAT SURROUNDS A MICROWAVE EYE FEATURE.  THE CURRENT
POSITION IS BASED ON THE EYE FEATURE IN THE MSI LOOP AND MICROWAVE
IMAGE WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY HAS BEEN INCREASED
TO 145 KNOTS BASED ON AN AVERAGE OF DVORAK CURRENT INTENSITY
ESTIMATES FROM PGTW, KNES, AND PHFO. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES
THE SYSTEM REMAINS IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH LOW TO MODERATE
(10 TO 20 KNOT) VERTICAL
WIND SHEAR (VWS) OFFSET BY RADIAL OUTFLOW. TC PAM IS TRACKING ALONG
THE WESTERN EXTENSION OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE TO THE EAST. OVER THE
NEXT 6 TO 12 HOURS, TC 17P WILL ROUND THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE
STR AND BEGIN TRACKING SOUTH AND THEN SOUTHEASTWARD. FAVORABLE
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PERSIST ALLOWING THE SYSTEM TO
POTENTIALLY INTENSIFY; HOWEVER, AS THE SYSTEM ROUNDS THE STR RIDGE
AXIS, IT WILL ENCOUNTER INCREASED VWS THAT WILL SLOWLY WEAKEN IT. TC
PAM WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN AND BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION
(ETT) AS IT INTERACTS WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE. BY THE END OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD, TC 17P WILL COMPLETE ETT AS AN INTENSE COLD CORE
LOW. AVAILABLE MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO BE IN AGREEMENT, LENDING
HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE
HEIGHT AT 130600Z IS 45 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 131500Z, 132100Z,

REMARKS:
140300Z POSITION NEAR 21.4S 169.8E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 203 NM EAST-
NORTHEAST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWARD AT 16
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY DEPICTS A 19-NM EYE WITH A SLIGHT WEAKENING TREND IN OVERALL
CONVECTIVE ORGANIZATION OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS, HOWEVER, TC 17P
REMAINS AN INTENSE SYSTEM WITH RADIAL OUTFLOW. THE INITIAL INTENSITY
IS ASSESSED AT 135 KNOTS BASED ON DVORAK INTENSITY ESTIMATES
RANGING FROM 127 TO 140 KNOTS. THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE
INITIAL POSITION BASED ON THE EYE FIXES. TC 17P IS FORECAST TO
ACCELERATE SOUTHEASTWARD ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN PRIPHERY OF THE
SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AND IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION
(ETT) NEAR TAU 24 AS IT BEGINS TO WEAKEN AND INTERACT WITH THE
BAROCLINIC ZONE. TC 17P WILL COMPLETE ETT BY TAU 48 AS IT GAINS
FRONTAL CHARACTERISTICS. THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC
FORECAST BASED ON THE TIGHT AGREEMENT OF DYNAMIC MODELS THROUGH TAU
48. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 140000Z IS 45 FEET. NEXT

REMARKS:
151500Z POSITION NEAR 34.2S 178.8E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 17P (PAM), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 572 NM EAST-
SOUTHEAST OF KINGSTON IS., HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT 20 KNOTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED IR SATELLITE IMAGERY
DEPICTS RAPIDLY DECAYING DEEP CONVECTION WITH A PARTIALLY EXPOSED
LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER AND LIMITED CORE CONVECTION, WITH THE
MAJORITY OF THE CONVECTION ON THE EASTERN SIDE. THIS IS CONFIRMED
WITH A 151246Z GPM IMAGE WHICH SHOWS THE SYSTEM TAKING ON FRONTAL
CHARACTERISTICS. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO COMPLETE EXTRA-TROPICAL
TRANSITION BY TAU 12 AS IT BECOMES FULLY ENVELOPED IN THE BAROCLINIC
ZONE. THERE IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST BASED ON THE
TIGHT AGREEMENT OF DYNAMIC MODELS. THIS IS THE FINAL WARNING ON THIS
SYSTEM BY THE JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR HI. THE SYSTEM WILL
BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR SIGNS OF REGENERATION. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT
WAVE HEIGHT AT 151200Z IS 40 FEET. REFER TO TROPICAL CYCLONE 18P
(NATHAN) WARNINGS (WTPS32 PGTW) FOR TWELVE-HOURLY UPDATES.//
