EFFECTS & HAZARDS SUMMARY

06W's (EGAY) circulation slightly improved but still the low-level circulation center (LLCC) is not aligned with the rain-cloud convection. Below are the summary of the depression's parts and its hazards affecting specific areas:

RAINBANDS - affecting & spreading across Aurora, Quezon, Bicol Region, Polillo Islands, Northern Samar, and portions of Southern Tagalog Provinces. Tropical Depression Conditions w/ moderate to strong winds (30-61 kph) can be expected along these bands (click here to know more about Rainbands).
24HR TOTAL RAINFALL ACCUMULATION - from 5 up to 150 mm (low to medium rainfall) can be expected along the outer & inner rainbands...with isolated amounts of up to 350 mm (high) near the center of 06W (EGAY). (click to open NOAA's eTRaP graphic).

JTWC (US NAVY & AIR FORCE) REMARKS:

REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 2 PM (06 GMT) SAT 18 JUNE POSITION: 14.5N 125.5E.
*TROPICAL STORM (TS) 06W, LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 260 NM EAST OF
MANILA, PHILIPPINES, HAS TRACKED NORTHWEST AT 11 KNOTS DURING THE
PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) SHOWS
SLIGHT IMPROVEMENT IN ORGANIZATION DURING THE PAST 8 HOURS, BUT THE
LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) REMAINS PARTIALLY EXPOSED DUE TO
EASTERLY WIND SHEAR. ALTHOUGH A 180117Z METOPA MICROWAVE IMAGE
SHOWED LITTLE DEEP CONVECTION, RECENT MSI POINTS TO DEEPENING
CONVECTION OVER THE SOUTHERN FLANK. THE 180000Z PGTW STREAMLINE
ANALYSIS AND SURFACE REPORTS FROM EASTERN LUZON AND SAMAR REVEAL A
WEAK SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW EXTENDING ACROSS THE VISAYAS, AND A WELL
ESTABLISHED AND VIGOROUS SOUTHERLY WIND FIELD OVER THE PHILIPPINE
SEA. THE UPPER LEVEL STREAMLINE ANALYSIS REVEALS AN ANTICYCLONE 300
NM TO THE NORTHWEST OF THE LLCC. ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS
OUTFLOW IS BEING SUPPRESSED OVER THE POLEWARD SEMICIRCLE DUE TO AN
EXTENSIVE TUTT ALONG THE 20TH LATITUDE. EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW,
HOWEVER, IS WELL DEVELOPED. CURRENTLY, TS 06W EXISTS IN A REGION OF
FAVORABLE UPPER LEVEL DIFFLUENCE AND 30-31 DEGREE WATERS. THE
CURRENT INTENSITY IS BASED ON A COMBINATION OF SUBJECTIVE DVORAK
ESTIMATES FROM PGTW, RJTD, AND KNES AND SHIP REPORTS TO THE SOUTH
AND EAST OF THE LLCC. VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS) IS ESTIMATED AT 15-
20 KNOTS, BUT THE SYSTEM IS TRACKING TOWARD A REGION OF DECREASING
VWS OFF THE EAST COAST OF LUZON. THE COMBINATION OF DECREASING VWS,
WARM WATERS, AND SUSTAINED EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW WILL ALLOW TS 06W TO
INTENSIFY UNTIL IT TRACKS NORTH OF LUZON. ONCE NORTH OF LUZON,
INCREASING VWS AND FALLING OCEAN HEAT CONTENT WILL COUPLE TO WEAKEN
THE SYSTEM. MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT AS FAR AS TRACKING
TS 06W INTO THE LUZON STRAIT. AFTER TAU 60, MODEL DISPARITY
INCREASES BUT ALL GUIDANCE SHOWS A NORTHWESTWARD TRACK WITH LANDFALL
SOMEWHERE BETWEEN HONG KONG AND CENTRAL TAIWAN. THE CURRENT TRACK
FORECAST FOLLOWS CONSENSUS. INTENSITY GUIDANCE IS ALSO IN REASONABLE
AGREEMENT. THE CURRENT INTENSITY FORECAST IS WEIGHTED TOWARDS STIPS
11 GUIDANCE..
