ANALYSIS & FORECAST OUTLOOK (up to 2 days)*

11W having a hard time consolidating over the northern part of the South China Sea, but still maintaining its Tropical Storm intensity. The storm is expected to turn WNW to NW-ward throughout the forecast period. It will slightly intensify while heading towards the Guangdong-Fujian Provinces of China today [2PM SEP 09: 21.6N 117.9E @ 75kph]. 11W will reach its peak intensity tomorrow morning before making landfall over SE China [2AM SEP 10: 22.5N 117.1E @ 85kph]. The touchdown area of 11W is somewhere just to the south of Shantou City before noontime tomorrow, and will start to weaken as it traverses the rugged terrain of Easternmost Guangdong and Southern Fujian by tomorrow afternoon [2PM SEP 10: 23.5N 116.3E @ 65kph]. On Saturday early morning, 11W will quickly dissipate over the mountains of Jiangxi Province [2AM SEP 11: 24.8N 115.6E @ 35kph]

Current Maximum Sustained Winds (1-min. avg) are near 65 km/hr (35 kts) with higher gusts.

JTWC (US NAVY & AIR FORCE) REMARKS:

REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 2 AM (18 GMT) THU 09 SEPTEMBER POSITION: 21.0N 118.9E.
*TROPICAL STORM (TS) 11W (ELEVEN), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 280 NM
EAST-SOUTHEAST OF HONG KONG, HAS TRACKED WESTWARD AT 05 KNOTS OVER
THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED INFRARED (IR) IMAGERY REVEALS A
PARTIALLY EXPOSED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER WITH DEEP CONVECTION
SHEARING TO THE SOUTHEAST OF THE SYSTEM. THE CURRENT POSITION AND
PAST SIX HOUR MOTION ARE BASED ON ANIMATED IR IMAGERY WITH POOR
CONFIDENCE. THE CURRENT INTENSITY IS BASED ON DVORAK ESTIMATES FROM
PGTW AND KNES OF 35 KNOTS. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES NORTH-
NORTHWESTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR OVER THE SYSTEM, ASSOCIATED WITH
THE UPPER LEVEL LOW MOVING WESTWARD INTO EASTERN CHINA AND
CONTINUING TO IMPINGE POLEWARD OUTFLOW. TS 11W IS CURRENTLY TRACKING
ALONG THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF A WESTERN EXTENSION OF A LOW TO MID-
LEVEL SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE (STR) STATIONED SOUTH OF MAINLAND
JAPAN. TS 11W IS FORECAST TO INTENSIFY SLIGHTLY AND SLOWLY TURN
POLEWARD AS THE RIDGE IS WEAKENED BY AN APPROACHING MID-LATITUDE
TROUGH. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO MAKE LANDFALL BY TAU 36 AND
DISSIPATE AS A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE BY TAU 48. NUMERICAL
MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN FAIR AGREEMENT, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF GFS WHICH
RAPIDLY WEAKENS THE STR AND DRIVES THE SYSTEM POLEWARD FASTER AND
SOONER. GFDN, WBAR, NGPS, ECMWF, AND JGSM MODEL TRACKERS HAVE ALL
SHIFTED SLIGHTLY EASTWARD FROM THE PREVIOUS 12Z TRACKERS, INDICATING
THE STEERING RIDGE MAY WEAKEN SOONER THEN PREVIOUSLY FORECAST. THIS
FORECAST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE PREVIOUS FORECAST AND REMAINS WEST
OF CONSENSUS TO ACCOUNT FOR THE AFOREMENTIONED GFS POLEWARD BIAS AND
UPPER AIR SOUNDINGS FROM HONG KONG, AND SHANTOU, CHINA INDICATING
EASTERLY FLOW.
