NR 64//
RMKS/
1. FOR METEOROLOGISTS.
2. 6 HOUR SUMMARY AND ANALYSIS.
   TROPICAL STORM (TS) 01C (HALOLA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 134 NM
SOUTH OF SASEBO, JAPAN, HAS TRACKED NORTHWARD AT 14 KNOTS
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY
DEPICTS DEEP CONVECTION DISPLACED TO THE SOUTHWEST OF AN EXPOSED LOW LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). EASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS) HAS RELAXED
SLIGHTLY TO 25 KTS, ALLOWING THE DEEP CONVECTION TO BEGIN BUILDING BACK
CLOSER TO THE LLCC. THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON THE CLEAR LLCC IN THE
VISIBLE LOOP AND RJTD RADAR FIXES WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE. THE LOW LEVEL
STRUCTURE IN A 252329Z SSMIS MICROWAVE PASS FURTHER SUPPORTS THIS POSITION.
THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 40 KNOTS BASED ON DECREASING DVORAK
ESTIMATES FROM PGTW AND RJTD. EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW IS STEADILY DECLINING, AND
TS 01C HAS NOT YET TAPPED INTO THE MID-LATITUDE WESTERLY FLOW TO THE NORTH.
ADDITIONALLY, SST VALUES ARE NOT SUPPORTIVE OF DEVELOPMENT. TS 01C IS
ROUNDING THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF THE MID-LAYER REFLECTION OF THE SUBTROPICAL
RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST.
3. FORECAST REASONING.
   A. NO CHANGE TO THE FORECAST PHILOSOPHY SINCE THE PREVIOUS
PROGNOSTIC REASONING MESSAGE.
   B. OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS TS 01C IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN A RECURVATURE TO THE
NORTHEAST AS IT SKIRTS THE COAST OF KYUSHU. IT IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
TRACKING ALONG THE SOUTHWESTERN COAST OF HONSHU AND DISSIPATE OVER THE SEA OF
JAPAN DUE TO A COMBINATION OF CONTINUED HIGH VWS AND COLD SSTS AS WELL AS
FRICTIONAL EFFECTS FROM THE NEARBY COAST. IT IS POSSIBLE THE SYSTEM MAY
DISSIPATE PRIOR TO TAU 36, PARTICULARLY IF THE POST-RECURVATURE TRACK SHIFTS
FURTHER EASTWARD OVER LAND. THE JTWC FORECAST IS PLACED VERY CLOSE TO THE
PREVIOUS FORECAST, AND SLIGHTLY INSIDE AND FASTER THAN THE MULTIMODEL
CONSENSUS MEAN. NUMERICAL GUIDANCE REMAINS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT THROUGH TAU 36,
LENDING HIGH CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST.//
