REMARKS: 142100Z8 POSITION: 12.2N5 151.8E5
LATEST INFRARED SATELLITE INDICATES THAT DURING THE PAST
HOURS THAT SUPER TYPHOON PAKA (05C) HAS CONTINUED TO
INTENSIFY AND IS NOW 140 KNOTS. THIS INTENSITY IS BASED

PAGE 06 RUEOMCA0958 UNCLAS //NO3145//
ON OUR RECENT ANALYSIS OF OUR AUTOMATED INTENSITY
TECHNIQUE. THIS DATA HAS BEEN SHOWN TO BE FAIRLY ACCURATE
FOR TYPHOONS OF THIS KIND OF INTENSITY. TYPHOON PAKA IS
EXPECTED TO SLOW ITS FORWARD SPEED SIGNIFICANTLY WITHIN
THE 24 TO 48 HOUR FORECAST PERIOD AS A STRONG MID-LATITUDE
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES OFF OF ASIA. HOWEVER, INITIAL
FORWARD SPEED WILL BE MAINTAINED FOR THE NEXT 12 TO 24
HOURS UNTIL THE CYCLONE BEGINS TO FEEL THE AFFECT OF THE
TROUGH PASSING TOWARDS THE NORTH. JUSTIFICATION: WARNING
INTENSITY AND TRACK AMENDED BASED ON ABOVE NEW
INFORMATION AND ANALYSIS. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT
AT 141800Z IS 30 FEET. REFER TO WWPW31 PGFW FOR
ADDITIONAL SEA HEIGHT INFORMATION. NEXT WARNINGS AT
150300Z9 (DTG 150151Z), 150900Z5 (DTG 150751Z), 151500Z2
(DTG 151351Z), AND 152100Z9 (DTG 151951Z).//
