  • 22W (UNNAMED) moving rapidly to the west...now a Tropical Storm...will pass south of Guam this morning.

    *Residents and visitors along Eastern Luzon and the Mariana Island Chain should closely monitor the progress of 22W.

    *Kindly refer to your local warnings & bulletins issued by your country's official weather agency. This advisory is intended for additional information purposes only.


    + Forecast Outlook: 22W is expected to start decelerating as it turns WNW-ward within the next 12 to 24 hours. The 2 to 5-day Long-Range Forecast shows 22W entering the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) Saturday morning Oct 17 as a Category 1 Typhoon...turning more westerly slowly towards Eastern Luzon on Sunday Oct 18. It shall rapidly grow into a Category 3 Typhoon on Tuesday Oct 20 in a track that could bring it to Northern Luzon on Wednesday or Thursday. *ECMWF 10-Day Extended Long-Range Forecast: 22W shall make landfall over Northern Luzon or over Isabela Wednesday evening, Oct 21 and exit thru Ilocos Sur early Thursday morning, Oct 22. It shall be approaching Hainan Island on Saturday evening Oct 24. Please be reminded that the ECMWF model run changes every 12 hours, so a shift to the left or right of its future track and other conditions must be considered.

    + Effects: 22W's broad circulation continues to consolidate while moving rapidly westward. Its outer bands now spreading into Southern Marianas - bringing occasional rains w/ squalls and thunderstorms. 1-day rainfall accumulations of 50 up to 100 mm (moderate to heavy rain) can be expected along PARMA's rainbands...with isolated accumulations of up to 200 mm (very heavy rain) near the center of 22W particularly along its projected path. 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.

    + Tropical Cyclone Watch:

    (1) Tropical Disturbance 93W (LPA) has moved out into the South China Sea...its rainbands spreading across Metro Manila, Mindoro, Southern Tagalog Provinces, Central Luzon and Northern Palawan including Calamian Island Group...currently located near lat 12.8N lon 118.5E...or about 205 km WNW of Coron, Palawan...with 1-min maximum sustained winds of 30 kph near the center...moving WNW @ 26 kph towards Vietnam. This system may likely become a Tropical Cyclone while over the South China Sea.

    Kindly click the T2K Graphical Satellite Analysis, issued every afternoon, and shows various tropical systems roaming across the South China Sea and the Western Pacific Ocean.

    [Important Note: Please keep in mind that the above forecast outlook, effects, current monsoon intensity, & tropical cyclone watch changes every 6 to 12 hrs!]

    REMARKS: 2 AM (18 GMT) THU 15 OCTOBER POSITION: 11.0N 146.5E.
    *TS 22W HAS MAINTAINED A BROAD CIRCULATION WITH
    BROKEN BANDS OF CONVECTION WRAPPING TOWARD THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION
    CENTER (LLCC). THE DEEPEST CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED ON THE WESTERN
    HALF OF THE SYSTEM. RECENTLY, CONVECTION HAS EXPANDED AND DEEPENED
    AROUND TS 22W, AND HAS CONSOLIDATED INTO COMPACT CELLS OF DEEP
    CONVECTION WITHIN THE BANDS. A 141146Z ASCAT PASS INDICATES THAT THE
    LLCC HAS BECOME BETTER ORGANIZED THAN A PREVIOUS 140755Z PASS SHOWED.
    DVORAK SATELLITE POSITION FIXES FROM PGTW REFLECTED A SLIGHT
    STRENGTHENING TREND OVER THE PAST 06 HOURS, WITH THE ANIMATED WATER
    VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWING THE DEEPEST CONVECTION CONTINUING TO BUILD ON
    THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE SYSTEM. A RECENT 141741Z TRMM 37H PASS
    SHOWS A DEVELOPING LLCC WITH TIGHTLY CURVED BANDING PRESENT, HELPING
    TO SUPPORT THE CURRENT INTENSITY OF 35 KNOTS. TS 22W IS FORECAST TO
    TRACK GENERALLY WEST-NORTHWESTWARD UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF
    THE LOW- TO MID-LEVEL SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) POSITIONED NORTHEAST
    OF THE SYSTEM. MODEL GUIDANCE HAS IMPROVED OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS,
    WITH GOOD AGREEMENT FOR THE CURRENT FORECAST. HOWEVER, CURRENT
    GUIDANCE INDICATES A SLOWER THAN PREVIOUSLY FORECASTED TRACK SPEED
    IN THE EXTENDED TAUS. INTENSITY IS CURRENTLY EXPECTED TO INCREASE
    GRADUALLY OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS BUT AS IT MOVES OVER A REGION OF
    HIGH OCEAN HEAT CONTENT AND INCREASED UPPER LEVEL OUTFLOW, BETWEEN
    TAU 48 AND 72, THE INTENSITY WILL RISE FASTER. TYPHOON STRENGTH IS
    EXPECTED AROUND TAU 48. IN THE EXTENDED RANGE, TS 22W IS FORECAST TO
    CONTINUE TRACKING WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AND SHOULD INTENSIFY THROUGHOUT
    THE FORECAST PERIOD...
