REMARKS:
260300Z1 POSITION 16.7N4  143.6E4
TYPHOON YATES (28W) HAS TRACKED WEST-NORTHWESTWARD AT 08
KNOTS DURING THE PAST 6 TO 12 HOURS WHILE WEAKENING
SLIGHTLY. YATES REMAINS A SMALL BUT VERY INTENSE SYSTEM.
A WELL-DEFINED 15 TO 18 NM DIAMETER EYE REMAINS VISIBLE
ON THE GUAM WSR-88D DOPPLER RADAR. UPPER-LEVEL OUTFLOW
FROM TY ZANE (29W) IS CAUSING SHEAR ON THE NORTHWEST SIDE
OF YATES AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE WEAKENING TREND. NEXT
WARNINGS AT 260900Z7 (DTG 260751Z1), 261500Z4 (DTG
261351Z8), 262100Z1 (DTG 261951Z4) AND 270300Z2 (DTG
270151Z6). MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 260000Z IS
29 FEET. REFER TO WWPW30 PGFW FOR ADDITIONAL SEA HEIGHT
INFORMATION. REFER TO TYPHOON ZANE (29W) (WTPN32 PGTW)
FOR SIX-HOURLY UPDATES.//
