** WTIN20 DEMS 140652 *** TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK ------------------------ DEMS -RSMC TROPICAL CYCLONES NEW DELHI 14-01-2006 (.) TROPICAL WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR THE NORTH INDIAN OCEAN (THE BAY OF BENGAL AND ARABIAN SEA ) VALID FOR NEXT 24 HOURS ISSUED AT 0600 UTC (.) SUB:- DEEP DEPRESSION OVER SOUTHEAST ARABIAN SEA YESTERDAY'S DEPRESSION OVER SOUTHEAST ARABIAN SEA MOVED WEST-NORTHWESTWARDS, INTENSIFIED INTO A DEEP DEPRESSION AND LAY CENTERED AT 0300 UTC OF 14TH JANUARY 2006 NEAR LAT.5.5 DEG N AND LONG.75.5 DEG E. THE SYSTEM IS LIKELY TO INTENSIFY FURTHER AND MOVE IN A WEST-NORTHWESTERLY DIRECTION. BROKEN INTENSE TO VERY INTENSE CONVECTIVE CLOUDS ARE SEEN OVER SOUTHEAST ARABIAN SEA, MALDIVES SOUTHERN PART OF LAKSHADWEEP AND ADJOINING NORTH INDIAN OCEAN IN ASSOCIATION WITH THIS SYSTEM. ** WTPS01 NFFN 140600 *** Gale Warning 017 issued from RSMC NADI Jan 14/0712 UTC 2006 UTC. Tropical Cyclone Urmil [990hPa] centre was located near 17.8 South 173.2 West at 140600 UTC. Position poor. Repeat position 17.8S 173.2W at 140600 UTC. Cyclone moving southsoutheast at about 18 knots and expected to accelerate further. Cyclone intensifying. Expect sustained winds of 40 knots close to the centre increasing to 45 knots in the next 12 hours. Expect winds over 33 knots within 100 miles of centre. Forecast position near 21.7S 172.4W at 141800 UTC and near 25.5S 170.6W at 150600 UTC. All vessels within 300 nautical miles of the centre are requested to send reports every three hours to RSMC NADI. VOS reporting ships use normal channels. Other vessels fax plus 679 6720190 or email naditcc at met dot gov dot fj. This warning cancels and replaces warning 015. ** WTPS01 NFFN 140600 *** Gale Warning 017 issued from RSMC NADI Jan 14/0712 UTC 2006 UTC.

Tropical Cyclone URMIL 06F [990hPa] centre was located near 17.8S 173.2W at 140600 UTC. Position poor based on HR MTSAT EIR imagery with animation and peripheral surface reports. Cyclone moving southsoutheast 18 knots and expected to accelerate further. Maximum 10-minute average winds estimated at 40 knots close to the centre increasing to 45 knots in the next 12 hours. Expect winds over 33 knots within 100 miles of centre. Primary band continues to wrap tightly around LLCC. Fanning of cirrus indicates improved outflow channels to the south and west, and becoming good elsewhere. Dvorak analysis based on a 0.6 log-10 spiral wrap, gives a DT=PT=3.0 and MET=2.5, yields T3.0/3.0/D1.0/12hrs. Urmil lies under divergent 250-hpa flow ahead of an approaching trough. Environmental shear is around 10 to 20 knots, however resultant shear is negligible given the increasing translational speed of the cyclone. SST around 29C. Global models that have captured the system move it rather rapidly southeast with some initial intensification. FORECAST: 12hrs valid at 141800 UTC near 21.7S 172.4W mov SSE at 20kt with 45 kt close to the centre. 24hrs valid at 150600 UTC near 25.5S 170.6W mov SSE at 25kt with 45 kt close to the centre. OUTLOOK: 36hrs valid at 151800 UTC near 29.8S 167.7W mov SE at 28kt with 40kt close to the centre. 48hrs valid at 160600 UTC near 34.4S 164.1W mov SE at 30kt with 40kt close to the centre. The next Tropical Disturbance Advisory on Tropical Cyclone URMIL will be issued around 141400 UTC. ** WTPS12 NFFN 140600 *** Tropical Disturbance Advisory Number B3 issued from RSMC NADI Jan 14/0806 UTC 2006 UTC.
