REMARKS:
150900Z5 POSITION NEAR 11.9S1 174.0W2.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 19P (OLAF), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 270 NM NORTH-
WEST OF PAGO PAGO, AMERICAN SAMOA, HAS TRACKED SOUTHEASTWARD AT 10
KNOTS OVER THE PAST 06 HOURS. THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED ON
150530Z4 MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS
BASED ON SATELLITE CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 115 AND 127 KNOTS.
RECENT ANIMATED ENHANCED WATER VAPOR IMAGERY REVEALS THE EYE HAS
BECOME SLIGHTLY CLOUDED, HOWEVER EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW REMAINS STRONG.
TC 19P IS FORECAST TO REMAIN ON A GENERAL SOUTHEASTWARD TRACK AS IT
MOVES IN THE WAKE OF TC 18P. THE SYSTEM WILL SLOWLY INTENSIFY THROUGH
TAU 30, THEN START TO DECREASE AS IT MOVES INTO AN ENVIRONMENT OF
INCREASED VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND LESS FAVORABLE OUTFLOW. MAXIMUM
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 150600Z2 IS 43 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
151500Z2, 152100Z9, 160300Z0 AND 160900Z6. REFER TO TROPICAL CYCLONE
18P (NANCY) WARNINGS (WTPS31 PGTW) FOR TWELVE-HOURLY UPDATES.//
