Western Pacific…

There’s an area of disturbed weather being referred to as Invest 95W…which is located approximately 505 NM south-southeast of Guam

Animated multi-spectral satellite imagery depicts an exposed and broad low-level circulation center with disorganized, deep convection in the northern periphery. Another image reveals an elongated circulation with 15-20 knot winds in the western and northern quadrants of the circulation with weaker 5-15 knot winds elsewhere.

Environmental analysis indicates that 95W is in a marginally favorable environment for development with easterly diffluent flow, low to moderate (15-20 knot) vertical wind shear, and warm sea surface temperatures.

Global models agree that 95W will be quasi-stationary as it slowly develops over the next 48 hours.

Maximum sustained surface winds are estimated at 15 to 20 knots.

The potential for the development of a significant tropical cyclone within the next 24 hours is low.
