JTWC (US NAVY & AIR FORCE) REMARKS:

REMARKS (for Meteorologists): 2 PM (06 GMT) MON 06 SEPTEMBER POSITION: 32.4N 126.3E.
*TROPICAL STORM (TS) 10W (MALOU), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 50 NM
SOUTH OF CHEJU ISLAND, HAS TRACKED NORTH-NORTHEASTWARD AT
06 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED MULTISPECTRAL SATELLITE
IMAGERY SHOWS A PARTIALLY EXPOSED, BROAD LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION
CENTER (LLCC) WITH THE DEEP CONVECTION SHEARED TO THE NORTHEAST.
THERE IS LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE INITIAL POSITION DUE TO THE BROAD
LLCC DEPICTED IN THE MULTISPECTRAL IMAGERY AND A 060450Z AMSU
MICROWAVE IMAGE. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS LOWER THAN THE PGTW, RJTD
AND KNES DVORAK ESTIMATES OF 45 TO 55 KNOTS BASED ON A 060108Z
SHOWING A MAXIMUM OF 25 KNOT WINDS WITH LIGHTER CENTRAL WINDS.
OBSERVATIONS FROM CHEJU ISLAND ARE REPORTING 18 TO 20 KNOT WINDS.
UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT POLEWARD AND EQUATORWARD OUTFLOW
REMAIN GOOD. TS MALOU IS CURRENTLY TRACKING ALONG THE WESTERN
PERIPHERY OF A LOW- TO MID-LEVEL SUBTROPICAL STEERING RIDGE. TS 10W
IS FORECAST TO TURN NORTHEASTERLY AS IT ROUNDS THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE
AXIS AND BEGINS INTERACTING WITH THE BAROCLINIC ZONE TO THE NORTH.
TS MALOU IS EXPECTED TO WEAKEN OVER LAND IN SOUTH KOREA BY TAU 24.
BY TAU 36 IT SHOULD BECOME FULLY ABSORBED INTO THE MID-LATITDUE
WESTERLY FLOW OVER THE SEA OF JAPAN. NUMERICAL MODEL GUIDANCE IS IN
FAIR AGREEMENT EXCEPT FOR GFDN AND NOGAPS, WHICH SIGNIFICANTLY
WEAKEN THE SYSTEM AND TRACK IT NORTHWARD WITH THE LOW LEVEL FLOW.
THIS FORECAST IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE MODEL CONSENSUS, WHICH
RECURVES TS 10W INTO THE MID-LATITUDE WESTERLY FLOW.
