REMARKS:
200300Z5 POSITION 21.9S2   35.3E1
TROPICAL CYCLONE 13S IS MOVING SOUTH-SOUTHEASTWARD AT 08
KNOTS ALONG THE MOZAMBIQUE COAST. THE SYSTEM'S CURRENT
INTENSITY DOES NOT MEET OUR WARNING CRITERIA. HOWEVER, TC
13S IS EXPECTED TO SLOWLY RE-INTENSIFY AFTER IT MOVES
OFF-SHORE NEAR THE 12 HOUR POSITION AND THROUGHOUT THE
REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT
WAVE HEIGHT AT 200000Z IS 12 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
201500Z8 (DTG 201353Z4) AND 210300Z6 (DTG 210153Z2).
REFER TO TROPICAL CYCLONE 12P (KATRINA) WARNINGS (WTPS31
