JTWC (US NAVY & AIR FORCE) REMARKS:

REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 8 AM (00 GMT) FRI 29 JULY POSITION: 18.4N 112.3E.
*TROPICAL STORM 10W (NOCK-TEN), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 250 NM
SOUTH-SOUTHWEST OF HONG KONG, CHINA, HAS TRACKED WEST-NORTHWESTWARD
AT 10 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. RECENT MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY SHOWS THAT DEEP CENTRAL CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED OVER THE
LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) BUT CONTINUES TO BE SLIGHTLY
DISPLACED TO THE SOUTH. ADDITIONALLY, A CURVILINEAR BAND HAS FORMED
TO THE SOUTH OF THE LLCC WHICH WRAPS INTO THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
STORM. A 28/2201Z 91 GHZ SSMIS IMAGE DEPICTS THE VIGOROUS DEEP
CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THE SOUTHERN FEEDER BAND, LACK
OF DEEP CONVECTION IN THE NORTHERN SEMICIRCLE, AND DISPLAYS THE
CONVECTIVE ELEMENTS THAT ARE BEGINNING TO FORM OVER SOUTHERN CHINA
AS THE OUTER PERIPHERY OF TS 10W BEGINS TO INTERACT WITH LAND.
RECENT UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS AND ANIMATED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY
INDICATE THAT TS 10W IS IN AN AREA OF MODERATE NORTHEASTERLY
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AS A MID- TO UPPER-LEVEL SUBTROPICAL
ANTICYCLONE CONTINUES TO BUILD OVER SOUTHERN CHINA. DESPITE THE
MODERATE VERTICAL WINDSHEAR TO THE NORTH, THE UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE
REMAINS FAVORABLE WITH DISTINCTIVE CROSS EQUATORIAL OUTFLOW AND
A CONTINUED POLEWARD OUTFLOW CHANNEL INTO A TROPICAL UPPER
TROPOSPHERIC TROUGH CELL TO THE NORTHEAST. THE INITIAL POSITION IS
BASED ON THE ABOVE ANIMATION AND EXTRAPOLATED FROM THE
AFOREMENTIONED MICROWAVE IMAGE WITH FAIR CONFIDENCE. THE INITIAL
INTENSITY IS BASED ON A DVORAK ESTIMATE OF 55 KNOTS FROM KNES. TS
10W CONTINUES TO BE STEERED BY THE MID- TO UPPER-LEVEL SUBTROPICAL
RIDGE CENTERED OVER SOUTHERN ASIA...(
