  • MIRINAE (PRE-SANTI) rapidly intensified into a Typhoon, gaining speed as it tracks Westerly towards the Philippine Sea...expected to enter the Philippine Area of Responsibility (PAR) tonight.

    *Residents and visitors along the eastern coasts of Luzon (Philippines) should closely monitor the progress of MIRINAE (PRE-SANTI).

    *Kindly refer to your local warnings & bulletins issued by your country's official weather agency. This advisory is intended for additional information purposes only.


    + Forecast Outlook: MIRINAE's forecast outlook remains slightly the same...expected to continue tracking Westward within the next 1-2 days, will enter PAR tonight. The 2 to 5-day Long-Range Forecast shows the system turning a little WSW beginning tomorrow afternoon until end of the forecast...will be approaching the eastern coast of Luzon on early Saturday morning, Oct 31 as a Category 3 Typhoon (185 kph), passing more or less 300 km. North of Camarines Sur. The core shall make landfall north of Casiguran, Aurora Saturday afternoon Oct 31 and cross Southern Isabela, Quirino, Benguet, La Union and exit thru Lingayen Gulf-Cape Bolinao Area in Northern Pangasinan on Sunday morning, Nov 1st. MIRINAE will be in the middle of the South China Sea on Monday, November 02. *Alternate Forecast Scenario (AFS): The latest ECMWF Extended Forecast issued at 8PM last night, showed the system passing north of Camarines Norte and traversing Polillo Islands and making landfall over Northern Quezon, Nueva Ecija, Pampanga, and Zambales beginning Saturday afternoon until Sunday morning (Oct 31-Nov 01). This AFS track may happen if the High Pressure Steering Ridge off SE China and Taiwan strengthens more. Please be reminded that the Forecast Outlook changes every 6 hours, so a turn to the left or right of its future track and other conditions must be considered.

    + Effects: MIRINAE's strong circulation has become more compact...continues to improve. Its rainbands remains at sea and not yet affecting any major islands. The initial effects of the outer rainbands over Eastern Luzon can be expected beginning Friday, Oct 30. 6 to 12-hr total rainfall amounts of 2 to 90 mm (light to moderate rain) can be expected along its rainbands...with isolated amounts of 120 mm (moderate to heavy rain) near the center of Mirinae.

  • JTWC (US NAVY / AIR FORCE) 12, 24, 48 & 72 HR. FORECAST & REMARKS:

    2 PM (06 GMT) 28 OCTOBER: 16.5N 136.7E / 140-165 KPH (TY-Cat 1) / W @ 30 KPH
  • 2 AM (18 GMT) 29 OCTOBER: 16.9N 133.3E / 160-195 KPH (TY-Cat 2) / W @ 24 KPH

    2 AM (18 GMT) 31 OCTOBER: 16.8N 124.0E / 185-230 KPH (TY-Cat 3) / W @ 13 KPH

    REMARKS: 2 AM (18 GMT) WED 28 OCTOBER POSITION: 15.9N 140.2E.
    *ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY AND A 271638Z AMSR-E
    IMAGE SHOW A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN ORGANIZATION AND INTENSITY OVER
    THE PAST 06 HOURS. A WELL DEFINED MICROWAVE EYE IS EVIDENT IN THE
    AMSR-E PASS WITH DEEP CONVECTION EXTENDING COMPLETELY AROUND THE
    SOUTHERN HALF OF MIRINAE. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT THE
    POLEWARD OUTFLOW CHANNEL HAS LINKED WITH THE MID-LATITUDE TROUGH TO
    THE NORTH OF MIRINAE AND HAS HELPED TO FUEL RAPID INTENSIFICATION
    OVER THE PAST 06 HOURS. THE INFLUENCE FROM THE TROUGH ON THE
    POLEWARD OUTFLOW WILL BEGIN TO DIMINISH OVER THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS
    AS THE MID-LATITUDE FLOW RE-ALIGNS AND BECOMES MORE ZONAL. TY 23W IS
    EXPECTED TO CONTINUE STRENGTHENING THROUGH TAU 72 PRIOR TO LANDFALL
    WITH LUZON; DECREASING AS IT TRACKS OVER LUZON INTO THE SOUTH CHINA
    SEA. LAND INTERACTION WILL SLOW MIRINAE FROM TAU 72 THROUGH 120 AS
    IT TRACKS OVER LUZON, BUT THE CYCLONE WILL SEE A SLIGHT INCREASE IN
    TRACK SPEED UPON RE-ENTERING THE SOUTH CHINA SEA...
