REMARKS:
192100Z3 POSITION NEAR 17.7S5 118.3E3.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 20S (ALISTAIR), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 170 NM
NORTH OF PORT HEDLAND, AUSTRALIA, HAS TRACKED WEST-SOUTHWESTWARD AT
10 KNOTS OVER THE PAST 6 HOURS. THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED ON
191730Z1 INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS BASED
ON CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 55 KNOTS. ENHANCED INFRARED
ANIMATION DEPICTS A POORLY DEFINED LOW-LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER WITH
CONVECTION SHEARED TOWARDS THE SOUTH. TC 20S IS FORECAST TO TRACK
SOUTHWESTWARD OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS UNDER THE STEERING INFLUENCE OF
THE MID-LEVEL RIDGE ESTABLISHED OVER WESTERN AUSTRALIA. AFTERWARD,
THE SYSTEM SHOULD BEGIN TO TRACK MORE SOUTHWARD WITH AN APPROACH OF
A MID-LATITUDE TROUGH FROM THE SOUTHWEST. TC 20S HAS TRACKED
POLEWARD OF THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AXIS AND INTO A REGION OF MODERATE
UPPER WEST-NORTHWESTERLIES. THEREFORE, THE SYSTEM SHOULD SHOW A
WEAKENING TREND THROUGH THE PERIOD, DISSIPATING BY 48 HOURS. MAXIMUM
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 191800Z9 IS 14 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
200300Z5, 200900Z1, 201500Z8 AND 202100Z5.//
