03SEP21. TROPICAL DEPRESSION 17W (SEVENTEEN), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY
997 NM EAST OF YOKOSUKA, JAPAN, HAS TRACKED NORTHEAST-WARD AT 18
KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED ENHANCED INFRARED (EIR)
SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS A WEAK AND IRREGULAR SYSTEM WITH THE MAIN
CONVECTION SHEARED 50NM+ FROM A PARTLY EXPOSED LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION
(LLC). THE INITIAL POSITION IS PLACED WITH HIGH CONFIDENCE BASED ON
THE LLC FEATURE IN THE EIR LOOP. THE INITIAL INTENSITY IS BASED ON
THE PGTW DVORAK ESTIMATE OF T1.5/25 KTS AND REFLECTS THE 6-HR
DETERIORATION. TD 17W HAS DRIFTED INTO HIGH (25KTS+) VERTICAL WIND
SHEAR AND COOLER (26C) SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES AS IT ACCELERATED
NORTHEASTWARD ON THE POLEWARD SIDE OF THE STEERING SUBTROPICAL RIDGE
TO THE SOUTHEAST. IT IS EXPECTED TO DISSIPATE BY TAU 12 AS THE
UNFAVORABLE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS WORSEN. 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 031800Z IS 11 FEET.//
