REMARKS:
280300Z POSITION NEAR 16.4S 160.3E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 08P (EIGHT), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 486 NM
WEST OF PORT VILA, VANUATU, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT
07 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL
SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES DEEP FLARING CONVECTION ORIENTED
NORTHWEST-SOUTHEAST ALONG AN ACTIVE MONSOON TROUGH IN THE
SOUTH PACIFIC CONVERGENCE ZONE (SPCZ). A CONCENTRATION OF
DEEP CONVECTION HAS BEEN WRAPPING INTO A LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION
CENTER (LLCC), WITH A 272311Z ASCAT PASS DEPICTING 35 TO
40 KNOT WINDS SURROUNDING THE LLCC. THE INITIAL POSITION IS
PLACED WITH GOOD CONFIDENCE, AND THE INITIAL INTENSITY
IS SET AT 35 KNOTS BASED PRIMARILY ON THE AFOREMENTIONED
ASCAT PASS. THIS IS CORROBORATED BY THE DVORAK ESTIMATE OF
T2.5 FROM PGTW. UPPER-LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE PRESENCE
OF MODERATE NORTHWESTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (15-20 KNOTS)
ORIENTED PARALLEL TO THE SPCZ, WHICH SHOULD LIMIT ANY RAPID
DEVELOPMENT. HOWEVER, THE WIND FIELD IS EXPECTED TO EXPAND
AS THE SYSTEM GRADUALLY MOVES POLEWARD AND TAPS INTO MID-
LATITUDE DYNAMICS. TC 08P WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE TOWARD THE
SOUTH-SOUTHEAST AROUND A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE CENTERED OVER THE
EASTERN COAST OF AUSTRALIA. AFTER TAU 72, WITH INCREASE
BAROCLINICITY AND STRONGER VERTICAL WIND SHEAR, TC 08P IS
EXPECTED TO BEGIN EXTRA TROPICAL TRANSITION AND COMPLETELY
LOSE ITS TROPICAL CHARACTERISTICS BY TAU 96 IN THE VICINITY
OF NEW ZEALAND. GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT, SO THERE
IS HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THE JTWC FORECAST TRACK. MAXIMUM
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 280000Z IS 12 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS
AT 280900Z, 281500Z, 282100Z AND 290300Z.
2. THIS CANCELS AND SUPERSEDES REF A (WTPS21 PGTW 272100).

REMARKS:
280900Z POSITION NEAR 18.3S 161.7E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 08P (EIGHT), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 366 NM NORTHWEST
OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT 22 KNOTS OVER
THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY
SHOWS THE SYSTEM HAS BECOME ELONGATED AND RAGGED AS IT ACCELERATED
POLEWARD, AS IT STRUGGLED TO MAINTAIN CONVECTIVE STRUCTURE. THE
INITIAL POSITION IS BASED, WITH LOW CONFIDENCE, ON AN ELONGATED LOW
REFLECTIVITY CIRCULATION FEATURE WITH A SHALLOW FORMATIVE BAND
WRAPPING FROM THE SOUTH. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS BASED ON THE DVORAK
ESTIMATE OF T2.5 FROM PGTW. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE
CYCLONE IS IN AN AREA OF STRONG (30-KNOT PLUS) VWS, SLIGHTLY OFFSET
BY STRONG POLEWARD OUTFLOW THAT IS PROVIDING VENTILATION TO THE
ASSOCIATED WEAK CONVECTION. TC 08S IS TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN
PERIPHERY OF A STR TO THE EAST. IT IS EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN OR
SLIGHTLY INCREASE IN INTENSITY AS IT ACCELERATES POLEWARD. BY TAU 72,
THE CYCLONE WILL BEGIN EXTRA TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) AS IT GETS
EMBEDDED IN THE COLD BAROCLINIC ZONE. CONCURRENTLY, THE SYSTEM WILL
SLIGHTLY INTENSIFY AS IT GETS ABSORBED IN THE STRONG MID-LATITUDE
WIND FIELD. TC 08S WILL COMPLETE ETT BY TAU 96 AND TRANSFORM INTO A
COLD CORE LOW. THE AVAILABLE NUMERIC GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT
LENDING HIGH CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST. MAXIMUM
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 280600Z IS 16 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
281500Z, 282100Z, 290300Z, AND 290900Z.

REMARKS:
281500Z POSITION NEAR 19.6S 162.1E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 08P (EIGHT), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 293 NM
NORTHWEST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-
SOUTHEASTWARD AT 16 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED
INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS TC 08S IS BEING INCREASINGLY
SHEARED, WITH A PARTIALLY EXPOSED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER
LOCATED TO THE NORTH OF FLARING CONVECTION. THE INITIAL POSITION IS
BASED, WITH LOW CONFIDENCE, ON A LLCC AND LOW LEVEL BANDING WRAPPING
INTO THE CENTER IN A 281044Z AMSU 89 GHZ IMAGE. THE INITIAL
INTENSITY IS BASED ON THE DVORAK ESTIMATE OF T2.5 FROM PGTW. UPPER
LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE CYCLONE IS IN AN AREA OF STRONG (40-
KNOT PLUS) VWS, SLIGHTLY OFFSET BY STRONG POLEWARD AND EQUATORWARD
OUTFLOW THAT IS PROVIDING VENTILATION TO THE ASSOCIATED WEAK
CONVECTION, ISOLATED IN THE SOUTHERN SEMICIRCLE OF THE SYSTEM. TC
08S IS TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A STR TO THE EAST. IT
IS EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN OR SLIGHTLY INCREASE IN INTENSITY AS IT
ACCELERATES POLEWARD AND BECOMES EMBDEDDED IN AN APPROACHING
MIDLATITUDE TROUGH. BY TAU 48, THE CYCLONE WILL BEGIN EXTRA TROPICAL
TRANSITION (ETT) AS IT GETS EMBEDDED IN THE COLD BAROCLINIC ZONE.
CONCURRENTLY, TC 08S WILL SLIGHTLY INTENSIFY AS IT GETS ABSORBED IN
THE STRONG MID-LATITUDE WIND FIELD, AND THE WIND FIELD WILL EXPAND,
WITH STRONGER WINDS DISPLACED FURTHER FROM THE CENTER, INTO A COLD
CORE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. TC 08S WILL COMPLETE ETT BY TAU 72. THE

REMARKS:
290300Z POSITION NEAR 20.1S 162.6E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 08P (FEHI), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 260 NM
NORTHWEST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-
SOUTHEASTWARD AT 13 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTI-
SPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY (MSI) DEPICTS CURVED BANDING WRAPPING
INTO A PARTIALLY EXPOSED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) NEAR
THE POLEWARD END OF AN ACTIVE SOUTH PACIFIC CONVERGENCE ZONE. THE
INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON THE EXPOSED LLCC IN MSI, AND SUPPORTED
BY A PAIR OF RECENT ASCAT PASSES, WHICH ALSO PROVIDED UPDATED WIND
RADII INFORMATION. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS RAISED TO 50 KNOTS,
BASED ON THE PGTW DVORAK ESTIMATE OF T3.5 FROM PGTW USING SHEAR
METHOD, AS WELL AS A T3.0 FROM NFFN, AND IS SUPPORTED BY ASCAT DATA,
SATCON ESTIMATED 55 KTS, MULTI-PLATFORM WIND ANALYSIS 49 KNOTS, AND
NEARBY SURFACE OBSERVATIONS. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE
VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS) IS STILL HIGH, BUT HAS MODERATED SLIGHTLY
OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. POLEWARD OUTFLOW IS ALSO ROBUST. TC FEHI IS
TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A SUB-TROPICAL RIDGE TO THE
EAST. GIVEN THE HIGH LEVEL OF VWS, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT 08P MAY
DISSIPATE AS A CLOSED LOW PRIOR TO THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD;
HOWEVER, MOST MODELS ARE MAINTAINING THE CIRCULATION. GUIDANCE
INDICATES FEHI SHOULD REMAIN NEAR 45 TO 50 KNOTS OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS UNTIL HIGHER VWS VALUES RESUME AND SST VALUES BECOME MARGINAL.
BY TAU 36, TC 08P WILL BEGIN EXTRA TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) AS IT
INTERACTS WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE. ETT WILL COMPLETE BY TAU
72, AND MODELS ARE INDICATING THE SYSTEM WILL SLIGHTLY RE-INTENSIFY
DUE TO BAROCLINIC ENERGY CONVERSION AS IT ENTERS THE MID-LATITUDES.
THE AVAILABLE NUMERICAL GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT, LENDING HIGH
CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE
HEIGHT AT 290000Z IS 20 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 290900Z, 291500Z,
292100Z, AND 300300Z.

REMARKS:
291500Z POSITION NEAR 22.0S 163.3E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 08P (FEHI), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 169 NM WEST-
NORTHWEST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONIA, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWARD AT 09
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY
DEPICTS A LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) THAT WAS LATER COVERED
BY FLARING CONVECTION NEAR THE POLEWARD END OF AN ACTIVE SOUTH
PACIFIC CONVERGENCE ZONE. THE INITIAL POSITION IS BASED ON THE
INFRARED SATELLITE LOOP, AND SUPPORTED BY A 281119Z AMSU 89 GHZ
IMAGE. CONVECTION HAS FLARED IN THE PAST SIX HOURS, THOUGH THERE IS
ONLY AN ISOLATED AREA OF DEEP CONVECTION TO THE WEST OF THE CENTER
POSITION. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS LOWERED TO 40 KNOTS, IN AGREEMENT
WITH THE PGTW 281200Z 2.5/3.0 FIX AND NEARBY OBSERVATIONS. UPPER
LEVEL ANALYSIS INDICATES THE VERTICAL WIND SHEAR (VWS) IS STRONG
(OVER 25 KNOTS) AND SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES ARE MARGINAL (26-27
DEGREES C) PREVENTING FURTHER DEVELOPMENT. ROBUST OUTFLOW STILL
PROVIDES STRONG DIVERGENCE ALOFT FOR THE SYSTEM. TC FEHI IS TRACKING
SOUTHWARD ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE TO THE
EAST. INTENSITY GUIDANCE INDICATES FEHI SHOULD REMAIN NEAR 40 KNOTS
OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. AROUND TAU 30-36, TC 08P WILL BEGIN EXTRA
TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) AS IT INTERACTS WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE
AND AN APPROACHING MIDLATITUDE TROUGH. ETT WILL COMPLETE BY TAU 48,
AND MODELS ARE INDICATING THE SYSTEM WILL SLIGHTLY RE-INTENSIFY AS A
COLD-CORE SYSTEM AND EXPAND ITS WIND FIELD AS IT ENTERS THE MID-
LATITUDES. THE AVAILABLE NUMERICAL GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT,
LENDING HIGH CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC TRACK FORECAST. MAXIMUM
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 291200Z IS 20 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
292100Z, 300300Z, 300900Z AND 301500Z.

REMARKS:
292100Z POSITION NEAR 24.5S 163.9E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 08P (FEHI), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 145 NM WEST-
SOUTHWEST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONI, HAS TRACKED SOUTH-
SOUTHEASTWARD AT 23 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED
INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY DEPICTS A PARTIALLY EXPOSED LOW LEVEL
CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH DECREASING AND HIGHLY SHEARED DEEP
CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY. THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH LOW
CONFIDENCE BASED ON THE EIR IMAGERY LOOP AND IS SUPPORTED BY
291839Z GPM 91 GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICTING AN EXPOSED LLCC WITH
FLARING DEEP CONVECTION TO THE SOUTH AND EAST OF THE CENTER. THE
INITIAL INTENSITY HAS MAINTAINED AT 40 KNOTS AND IS BASED ON MULTI-
AGENCY DVORAK CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES RANGING OF T2.0 (30
KNOTS) FROM KNES AND PGTW, HEDGED SLIGHTLY HIGHER BASED ON A
291235Z ASCAT SCATTEROMETER PASS INDICATING 40 KNOT WINDS IN THE
SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE OF THE SYSTEM, AN ADVANCED DVORAK TECHNIQUE
ESTIMATE OF T2.7 (39 KNOTS) AND A MULTI-SENSOR SATELLITE CONSENSUS
ESTIMATE OF 47 KNOTS. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS INDICATES THAT TC FEHI
HAS LIKELY COMPLETED TRANSITION TO A SUB-TROPICAL SYSTEM. TC FEHI
CURRENTLY LIES UNDER STRONG (35-40 KNOTS) VWS AND IS TRACKING OVER
ONLY MARGINAL (26-27 DEGREES C) SSTS. AN AMSU THERMAL CROSS SECTION
INDICATES A STRONG WARM ANOMALY IN THE NEAR-SURFACE LAYER, WITH A
WEAK WARM ANOMALY PRESENT IN THE UPPER LEVELS, SUPPORTING THE
ASSESSMENT THAT TC FEHI IS IN FACT SUB-TROPICAL. THE STRONG VWS IS
BEING OFFSET BY STRONG DIVERGENCE ALOFT WHICH IS HELPING TO
MAINTAIN THE INTENSITY AS THE SYSTEM MOVES RAPIDLY SOUTHWARD ALONG
THE WESTERN OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE EAST, AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING MID-LATITUDE TROUGH. TC FEHI IS FORECAST TO CONTINUE
TRACKING RAPIDLY SOUTHWARD BEFORE TURNING MORE SOUTHEASTWARD BEYOND
TAU 24. TC FEHI IS FORECAST TO SLOWLY INTENSITY FROM TAU 24 TO 48,
AS IT BEGINS TO UNDERGO EXTRA TROPICAL TRANSITION (ETT) AS IT
INTERACTS WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING MID-
LATITUDE TROUGH. THE SYSTEM IS EXPECTED TO BECOME COMPLETELY
EMBEDDED IN THE BAROCLINIC ZONE AND COMPLETE ETT BY TAU 48, AS A 50
KNOT SYSTEM. AVAILABLE NUMERICAL GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT
THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD, LENDING HIGH CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC
TRACK FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 291800Z IS 20
FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT 300300Z, 300900Z, 301500Z AND 302100Z.

REMARKS:
300300Z POSITION NEAR 25.8S 164.1E.
TROPICAL CYCLONE 08P (FEHI), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 206 NM SOUTH-
SOUTHWEST OF NOUMEA, NEW CALEDONI, HAS TRACKED SOUTHWARD AT 16
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY DEPICTS A RAPIDLY WEAKENING SYSTEM WITH A FULLY EXPOSED LOW
LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH HIGHLY SHEARED CONVECTIVE
ACTIVITY, AND ONLY WEAK CONVECTIVE BANDS SPIRALING INTO THE LLCC.
THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE BASED ON THE
MULTSPECTRAL IMAGERY LOOP AND IS SUPPORTED BY 292230Z ASMU-B 89 GHZ
MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICTING A VERY WEAK, EXPOSED LLCC WITH LIMITED
CONVECTION CONFINED TO THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE SYSTEM. THE
INITIAL INTENSITY IS ASSESSED AT 35 KNOTS, BASED ON MULTI-AGENCY
DVORAK CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF T2.0 (30 KNOTS) AND HEDGED
SLIGHTLY HIGHER BASED ON A 292232Z SCATTEROMETER PASS INDICATING A
COUPLE 40 KNOT WIND BARBS JUST EAST OF THE LLCC. ADVANCED DVORAK
TECHNIQUE ESTIMATES ALIGN WITH THE ASSESSED INTENSITY AT T2.3 (33
KNOTS). ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS INDICATES THAT TC FEHI IS TRANSITING
THROUGH AN UNFAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH STRONG (35-40 KNOTS) VWS
AND IS TRACKING OVER MARGINAL (26 DEGREES C) SSTS. AN AMSU THERMAL
CROSS SECTION FROM 292000Z INDICATES A WARM ANOMALIES EXTENDING
FROM NEAR THE SURFACE THROUGH THE MIDDLE LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE,
INDICATIVE OF A SUBTROPICAL SYSTEM. THE ASSOCIATED PHASE SPACE
DIAGRAMS INDICATE THAT THE SYSTEM WILL BEGIN TRANSITIONING TO AN
ASYMMETRIC WARM CORE, THEN COLD CORE EXTRA-TROPICAL SYSTEM WITHIN
THE NEXT 24 TO 36 HOURS. THE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE RAPIDLY
SOUTHWARD ALONG THE WESTERN OF A SUBTROPICAL RIDGE (STR) TO THE
EAST, AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING MID-LATITUDE TROUGH THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD, BECOMING EMBEDDED IN THE BAROCLINIC ZONE AND
COMPLETING EXTRA-TROPICAL TRANSITION BY TAU 36. TC FEHI WILL
INTENSITY SLIGHTLY AS IT UNDERGOES ETT, PEAKING AT 40 KNOTS BY TAU
24. AVAILABLE NUMERICAL GUIDANCE IS IN TIGHT AGREEMENT THROUGH THE
FORECAST PERIOD, LENDING HIGH CONFIDENCE TO THE JTWC TRACK
FORECAST. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 300000Z IS 20 FEET.
