REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 2 PM (06 GMT) SAT 02 APRIL POSITION: 9.3N 111.2E.
*ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL  IMAGERY SHOWS THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
HAS BECOME FULLY EXPOSED WITH WEAK AND FRAGMENTED CONVECTION DISPLACED
WESTWARD. THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON THE ABOVE ANIMATION WITH A FAIR
DEGREE OF CONFIDENCE AND THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS BASED ON A DVORAK
ESTIMATE OF 25 KNOTS FROM PGTW AND KNES. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES
THE SYSTEM IS TO THE SOUTH OF A RIDGE AXIS IN AN AREA OF MODERATE
EASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS). LOW LEVEL STREAMLINE ANALYSIS
INDICATES THE CIRCULATION IS BEING ENHANCED BY A SURGE OF
NORTHEASTERLY WINDS IN THE SOUTH CHINA SEA ASSOCIATED WITH THE
NORTHEAST MONSOON. TD 01W IS EXPECTED TO BE SHORT-LIVED, DISSIPATING
WITHIN 48 HOURS MAINLY DUE TO PERSISTENT VWS..
