REMARKS:
201500Z POSITION NEAR 17.4N 107.8E.
20OCT22. TROPICAL DEPRESSION 23W (NESAT), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY
93 NM NORTH-NORTHWEST OF DA NANG, VIETNAM, HAS TRACKED
SOUTHWESTWARD AT 03 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED 
INFRARED (EIR) SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES THAT THE CIRCULATION 
ASSOCIATED WITH TD 25W HAS DISSIPATED AS A DISTINCT ENTITY AND NO 
LONGER DISCERNIBLE IN THE LOW CLOUD FIELD. BEFORE THE FINAL FRAME OF 
VISIBLE IMAGERY, THE PREVIOUSLY WELL-DEFINED CENTER HAD STARTED TO 
TURN WEST-SOUTHWEST AND THUS THE INITIAL POSITION INDICATES A 
SOUTHWESTWARD TRACK, THOUGH CONFIDENCE IN THE INITIAL POSITION IS LOW. 
THE INITIAL INTENSITY OF 25 KNOTS IS ASSESSED WITH LOW CONFIDENCE, AND 
COULD BE LOWER BASED ON THE EXTREMELY POOR PRESENTATION IN THE EIR, 
AND IS BASED PRIMARILY ON THE SOLE REMAINING OBJECTIVE FIXES OF T1.5. 
THE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO DEGRADE AND IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN BELOW 
WARNING CRITERIA WITHIN 12 HOURS, WHILE TRACKING TOWARDS THE SOUTHWEST 
ALONG THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF A LOW TO MID-LEVEL RIDGE TO THE NORTH. 
REMNANTS OF THE CIRCULATION MAY POTENTIALLY REACH THE COAST OF VIETNAM 
AROUND TAU 24,BUT WILL REMAIN BELOW WARNING CRITERIA. THIS IS THE 
FINAL WARNING ON THIS SYSTEM BY THE JOINT TYPHOON WRNCEN PEARL HARBOR 
HI. THE SYSTEM WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR SIGNS OF REGENERATION. 
MAXIMUM SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 201200Z IS 11 FEET.
REFER TO TROPICAL DEPRESSION 25W (TWENTYFIVE) WARNINGS (WTPN31 PGTW)
FOR SIX-HOURLY UPDATES.
