REMARKS:
141500Z1 POSITION NEAR 9.6S5 176.8W2.
TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 19P (OLAF), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 475
NM NORTHWEST OF PAGO PAGO, AMERICAN SAMOA, HAS TRACKED EAST-
SOUTHEASTWARD AT 06 KNOTS OVER THE PAST 06 HOURS. THE WARN-
ING POSITION IS BASED ON 141130Z0 ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE
IMAGERY. THE WARNING INTENSITY IS BASED ON SATELLITE CURRENT
INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 77, 90, 102 AND 115 KNOTS. TC 19P HAS
BEGUN TRACKING EAST-SOUTHEASTWARD ALONG THE WESTERN PERIPHERY
OF A LOW TO MID-LEVEL STEERING RIDGE TO THE EAST, AND IS FORE-
CAST TO CONTINUE TRACKING SOUTHEASTWARD THROUGH TAU 72. ANI-
MATED SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS THAT TC 19P HAS STRONG RADIAL
OUTFLOW WHICH IS FORECAST TO PERSIST FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD. THE SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO INTENSIFY SLOWLY
OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS IN A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT BEFORE IT
BEGINS INTERACTING WITH TC 18P TO ITS SOUTHEAST. MAXIMUM SIG-
NIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 141200Z8 IS 40 FEET. NEXT WARNINGS AT
142100Z8, 150300Z9, 150900Z5 AND 151500Z2. REFER TO TROPICAL
CYCLONE 18P (NANCY) WARNINGS (WTPS31 PGTW) FOR TWELVE-HOURLY
UPDATES.//
