I really wonder why the GFS is extremely consistent on the two systems... Probably a harbinger of something to come.
Both are forecast hit the Visayas/Southern Luzon region of the Philippines.

Wow. GFS cancels the other system (second) and makes the first system powerful.

Re: 2014 WPAC Season



Also noticed it's slightly closer now in development only 204 hours...haiyan like track...but slightly north which will take this to the island of yap first...
EURO is less aggressive but shows a plume of moisture headed for the area...
CMC is on par with EURO but further east west of Guam...
NAVGEM is even further to the east, southeast of Guam near 160E...

I am amazed of its consistency and which means it is closer to reality.
This track is more westerly though, a tad south of Haiyan

Thus the sea surface temperature warming over the El Niño box [near 5N] could indirectly fuel development.

Re: 2014 WPAC Season
Interestingly, the GFS has shown the development of this phantom system for 4 days now but the recent model runs are no longer showing a strong typhoon. All we have in our hands now though are just hints as we still don't have a tropical disturbance for better initialization...when that happens, we can take these model runs more seriously...

true...and both CMC and NAVGEM picks up something on the same area as well..so there is a healthy probability that something might develop, but the question is where it will go and how strong. there will be more confidence in the track and intensity forecast of models when they initialize an actual disturbance..

Re: 2014 WPAC Season
Development expected in 108 hours and most models keep it a weak tropical storm until landfall in luzon...
Another system right behind at 240 hours might be the major player bottoming out at 973 mb...
#1 spot in the world for category 5's, philippine sea...
