There’s a tropical disturbance, being referred to as
Invest 94W, which is located approximately 282 NM east-southeast of Aparri, Philippines
Here’s what the
computer models are showing
Invest 94W is currently in a favorable environment for development with good dual channel outflow, low 10-15 knot wind shear…and warm sea surface temperatures.
Global models are in good agreement that Invest 94W will continue to track northward, while intensifying, remaining highly asymmetric.
Maximum sustained winds are estimated at 15-20 knots.
The potential for the system to transition into a significant tropical cyclone within the next 24 hours is upgraded to
high.
