1. FORMATION OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE IS POSSIBLE WITHIN
130 NM EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM 12.3N 103.6W TO 14.7N 107.6W
WITHIN THE NEXT 12 TO 24 HOURS. AVAILABLE DATA DOES NOT JUSTIFY
ISSUANCE OF NUMBERED TROPICAL CYCLONE WARNINGS AT THIS TIME.

CIRCULATION WITH FLARING CONVECTION ALONG THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY AND
FORMATIVE BANDING WRAPPING INTO THE CENTER OF THE DISTURBANCE. UPPER-
LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS A FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT FOR 90E WITH LOW VWS
(<15KTS), GOOD POLEWARD OUTFLOW, AND WARM SST (28-29C). GLOBAL
NUMERICAL MODELS BRIEFLY TRACK A WEAK TROPICAL DISTURBANCE
NORTHWESTWARD OVER THE NEXT 24-36 HOURS. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE
