JTWC (US NAVY & AIR FORCE) REMARKS:

REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 2 PM (06 GMT) FRI 17 JUNE POSITION: 10.9N 128.7E.
*TROPICAL DEPRESSION (TD) 06W, LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 500 NM EAST-
SOUTHEAST OF MANILA, PHILIPPINES, HAS TRACKED NORTH-NORTHWESTWARD
AT 13 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY
SHOWS A PARTIALLY EXPOSED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH
CENTRAL CONVECTION SHEARED OFF TO THE WEST. THE CURRENT POSITION IS
BASED ON A 170530Z VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY AND SUPPORTED BY A
170551Z AMSU-B MICROWAVE. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS PLACES THE SYSTEM TO
THE SOUTHWEST OF THE NEAR EQUATORIAL RIDGE (NER) AXIS UNDER 20 KNOTS
OF VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS). TD 06W IS CURRENTLY STEERING ALONG
THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE LOW- TO MID-LEVEL SUBTROPICAL RIDGE
(STR) LOCATED TO THE NORTHEAST. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
TRACKING IN A NORTHERLY DIRECTION FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS AND MOVE
INTO A REGION OF MORE FAVORABLE VWS AS IT GET CLOSER TO THE NER
AXIS. AFTER A MIDLATITUDE TROUGH MOVES OFF THE EAST COAST OF CHINA
AFTER TAU 24, THE STR WILL BUILD TO THE WEST AND 06W WILL TRACK MORE
TOWARD THE NORTHWEST. AS THE SYSTEM GAINS LATITUDE AND APPROACHES
THE STR AXIS NEAR TAU 48, OUTFLOW IS EXPECTED TO IMPROVE INTO THE
MIDLATITUDE WESTERLIES AND THE SYSTEM WILL REACH TROPICAL STORM
INTENSITY, PEAKING AT 40 KNOTS BY TAU 96 BEFORE BRUSHING THE
SOUTHERN COAST OF TAIWAN. NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN FAIR
AGREEMENT. THIS FORECAST FAVORS CONSENSUS UP TO TAU 48, AFTERWHICH
IT IS MORE TO THE RIGHT AND FASTER THAN CONSENSUS TO REFLECT A MORE
INSTENSE SYSTEM..
