(1) AN AREA OF CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED NEAR 11.3N 151.0E,
APPROXIMATELY 385 NM EAST-SOUTHEAST OF GUAM. RECENT ANIMATED MULTI-
SPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS CONVECTION CONSOLIDATING NEAR AN
AREA OF TIGHT CYCLONIC TURNING AT THE SURFACE EVIDENT IN A 090737Z
QUIKSCAT PASS. THIS IMAGERY ALSO SUGGESTS THAT ENHANCED WESTERLY
SURFACE WINDS ARE APPROACHING THE SOUTHERN QUADRANTS OF THIS DISTURB-
ANCE, WHICH COULD ALLOW FOR RAPID DEVELOPMENT OF A LOW LEVEL CIRC-
ULATION CENTER. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS A STRONG 850 MB VORTICITY
SIGNATURE, LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND FAVORABLE POLEWARD OUTFLOW
ASSOCIATED WITH A TROPICAL UPPER TROPOSPHERIC TROUGH TO THE NORTHWEST
AND FAVORABLE EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER LEVEL NEAR
EQUATORIAL RIDGE ANCHORED TO THE EAST. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE
ESTIMATED AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED
TO BE NEAR 1005 MB. BASED ON THE VERY FAVORABLE OUTFLOW ENVIRONMENT,
STRONG VORTICITY SIGNATURE AND THE POTENTIAL FOR ENHANCED CYCLONIC
TURNING INDUCED BY STRONG WESTERLIES EQUATORWARD OF THE DISTURBANCE,
THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS FAIR.

B. TROPICAL DISTURBANCE SUMMARY:
(1) THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 12.0N
150.0E, IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 17.7N 145.9E, APPROXIMATELY 160 NM
NORTH OF SAIPAN. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS
A WEAK LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH A BURST OF DEEP
CONVECTION EAST OF THE CENTER. A 102211Z SSMI PASS REVEALED AN
ASYMMETRIC LLCC WITH DISORGANIZED CONVECTIVE BANDS WRAPPING WEAKLY
INTO THE NORTHERN QUADRANT OF THE DISTURBANCE. SYNOPTIC ANALYSIS
REVEALED 24-HOUR PRESSURE FALLS OF 1-2 MB OVER THE MARIANAS, WITHIN
THE EASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE MONSOON TROUGH. A 101954Z QUIKSCAT
PASS CONFIRMED A WEAK CIRCULATION WITH 10-15 KNOT WESTERLY WINDS
SOUTH OF THE CENTER. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 15
TO 20 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR
1004 MB. BASED ON THE FAVORABLE OUTFLOW ENVIRONMENT AND ENHANCED
CYCLONIC TURNING AT THE EASTERN END OF THE MONSOON TROUGH, THE
POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS REMAINS FAIR.

We got a upper ULL around 22/25 north/136 west. On the eastern side you see that convection forming. Remember systems like Bill and many more. The JMA is forecasting that area near 21 north/142 or so west to form into a TD now.
Also theres one over the china sea by 48 hours they also forecast developing.

TD...
8:30pm
8-11-2006
T numbers are at 1.0=25 knots. The quickscats shows a large LLC centered at 17/142.5. Most of the convection is to the northwest sheared by the upper low. A slow movement to the north or northwest should be expected.
Now 25 knots
6 25 knots
12 30 knots
24 35 knots
This is not offical...This is a test to work on my strength forecasting and tropical cyclone formation knowledge.

I'll continue posting here, unless advised otherwise, as Matt started this thread a couple of days ago.
Right looking at the latest advisory RSMC Tokyo expect to this to be TS Wukong fairly soon as the 24 hour forecast intensity is up to 40kts from 35kts.
