Newly formed 92W spotted east of Mindanao. As of 6:30a, January 14, 2008, it was spotted at 10.2N, 129.8E or at approximately 470km east of Dinagat with SLP of 1010mb and max windspeed of 15kts. It is moving slowly Westward.
Latest vortices reveal a high small vortices near east coast of Mindanao with convection leveling high and scattered at 5-7 indicating 92W showing some sign of intensification.
Upper divergence indicates good over the area with fair pole ward outflow. Warm SST and good OHC near the area fuel more for this system to intensify.
The system currently steered by High over NE and pole ward channel also from the NE with strong 34kts NE wind over northern quandrant which cause some slow westward tract.
