*Please be reminded that the Forecast Outlook changes every 6 hours, and the Extended Forecast Track have an average error of 250 km on Day 3...450 km on Day 4...and 650 km on Day 5, while the wind speed forecast error, averages 35 kph per day. Therefore, a turn to the left or right of its future track and changes in its wind speed must be anticipated from time to time.

EFFECTS & HAZARDS SUMMARY

MA-ON's (INENG) circulation becoming more elongated and sheared as it tracks Eastward across the open waters of the NW Pacific Ocean. Below is the summary of the storm's parts and its hazards affecting specific areas:

RAINBANDS - spreading & affecting Chichi Jima, Iwo To, & Bonin Islands. 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 50 mm (low to medium rainfall) can be expected along the outer & inner rainbands...with isolated amounts of up to 100 mm (med-high) near the center of MA-ON (INENG), especially along the southern portion. (click to open NOAA's eTRaP graphic).

JTWC (US NAVY & AIR FORCE) REMARKS:

REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 2 AM (18 GMT) FRI 22 JULY POSITION: 30.1N 142.0E.
*TROPICAL DEPRESSION 08W (MA-ON), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 350 NM SOUTH-
SOUTHEAST OF TOKYO, JAPAN, HAS TRACKED EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 04
KNOTS DURING THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED INFRARED (IR) SATELLITE
IMAGERY SHOWS AN EXPOSED, WELL-DEFINED LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
(LLCC) WITH MINIMAL DEEP CONVECTION TO THE SOUTH. A 211106Z ASCAT
IMAGE DEPICTS 25-30 KNOT CORE WINDS WITH AN EXTENSIVE AREA OF 35-40
KNOT GRADIENT WINDS DISPLACED NORTHWEST TO NORTHEAST.  THE RECENT
AMSU CROSS-SECTION CONTINUES TO INDICATE A WARM TEMPERATURE ANOMALY
OF +2C INDICATIVE OF A WEAK TROPICAL SYSTEM. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS
INDICATES THAT THE SYSTEM REMAINS UNDER THE TAIL-END OF AN UPPER-
LEVEL TROUGH AND UNDER MODERATE NORTHERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS),
WHICH ARE HINDERING DEVELOPMENT. THE CURRENT POSITION IS BASED ON
THE IR ANIMATION WITH GOOD CONFIDENCE. THE CURRENT INTENSITY IS
BASED ON AN AVERAGE OF THE DVORAK ESTIMATES RANGING FROM 25-35 KNOTS
FROM PGTW, KNES AND RJTD AS WELL AS THE RECENT ASCAT DATA. TD 08W IS
TRACKING SLOWLY EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF
THE LOW-LEVEL SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) BUT IS FORECAST TO ACCELERATE
AND TRACK INCREASINGLY POLEWARD AS THE STR BUILDS OVER THE NEXT 12-
36 HOURS. MODEL GUIDANCE REMAINS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT EXCEPT FOR THE
GFS TRACKER WHICH PULLS THE SYSTEM MORE NORTHWARD AFTER TAU 24 AND
IS WEST OF THE BULK OF THE DYNAMIC AIDS.  THIS FORECAST IS
POSITIONED CLOSE TO BUT SLIGHTLY FASTER THAN THE MODEL CONSENSUS. TD
08W IS EXPECTED TO INTENSIFY BETWEEN TAU 12 AND TAU 36 AS THE UPPER-
LEVEL TROUGH MOVES NORTHEAST AND THE UPPER-LEVEL STR BUILDS OVER THE
LLCC AND VWS RELAXES. THE FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT IS EXPECTED TO BE
SHORT-LIVED DUE TO INCREASING VWS AND COOL SST (< 26C) NORTH OF 35N.
TD 08W IS FORECAST TO COMPLETE EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) BY
TAU 72 ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL ETT DEVELOPMENT DUE TO THE
SUBTROPICAL INFLUENCES AND LACK OF A DEEP MIDLATITUDE SHORTWAVE
TROUGH AND SIGNIFICANT BAROCLINIC INTERACTION...(
