FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN 160 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 10.1S 87.2E TO 13.4S 81.3E WITHIN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AVAILABLE DATA DOES NOT JUSTIFY ISSUANCE OF NUMBERED TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNINGS AT THIS TIME. WINDS IN THE AREA ARE ESTIMATED TO BE 25 TO 30 KNOTS. METSAT IMAGERY AT 060000Z INDICATES THAT A CIRCULATION CENTER IS LOCATED NEAR 10.5S 86.5E. THE SYSTEM IS MOVING SOUTHWARD AT 10 KNOTS. 2. REMARKS: THE AREA OF CONVECTION (INVEST 95S) PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 8.8S 86.8E IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 10.5S 86.5E, APPROXIMATELY 853 NM EAST-SOUTHEAST OF DIEGO GARCIA. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 060102Z SSMIS F-17 91GHZ MICROWAVE IMAGE DEPICT BUILDING DEEP CONVECTION OVERHEAD AN OBSCURED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC) WITH A CONSOLIDATING CONVECTIVE STRUCTURE AND FORMATIVE BANDING WRAPPING IN FROM THE EAST AND SOUTH. 95S IS CURRENTLY IN A MARGINAL ENVIRONMENT WITH GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW AND WARM (28 TO 29 CELSIUS) SEA TEMPERATURES BEING OFFSET BY UNFAVORABLE (20 TO 30 KNOT) VERTICAL WIND SHEAR. GLOBAL MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT 95S WILL TRACK GENERALLY SOUTHWESTWARD WITH WINDS IN THE SOUTHERN SEMICIRCLE INTENSIFYING TO WARNING THRESHOLD WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS; HOWEVER THE OVERALL WIND FIELD WILL REMAIN VERY ASYMMETRIC. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1000 MB. THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS HIGH. THIS SUPERSEDES REF A. 3. THIS ALERT WILL BE REISSUED, UPGRADED TO WARNING OR CANCELLED BY 070330Z.// NNNN
