...PERIODS OF HEAVY RAINFALL, GUSTY WINDS AND CHOPPY SEAS REMAIN
POSSIBLE THROUGH TUESDAY AS A TROPICAL DISTURBANCE MOVES THROUGH
CHUUK STATE...
A BROAD TROPICAL DISTURBANCE CONTINUES TO PRODUCE UNSETTLED WEATHER
ACROSS CHUUK STATE. THIS DISTURBANCE REMAINS LARGELY DISORGANIZED,
WITH AN ELONGATED CIRCULATION LOCATED NEAR 4N149E, SOUTH OF POLOWAT.
FLARING, DEEP CONVECTION CONTINUES ACROSS CHUUK STATE, WITHIN STRONG
TRADE-WIND CONVERGENCE ALONG THE NORTHERN SIDE OF THE DISTURBANCE.
AS THIS DISTURBANCE SLOWLY REORGANIZES WEST OF CHUUK LAGOON OVER THE
NEXT FEW DAYS, IT IS EXPECTED TO MAINTAIN A PERIOD OF UNSETTLED
WEATHER THROUGH AT LEAST TUESDAY. PERIODS OF LOCALLY HEAVY SHOWERS,
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS, AND OCCASIONAL GUSTS TO 25 KT REMAIN POSSIBLE
THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON. TRAILING TRADE-WIND CONVERGENCE MAY
PROLONG SHOWERY WEATHER THROUGH AT LEAST WEDNESDAY NIGHT, BUT THE
THREAT OF HEAVY RAINFALL, GUSTY WINDS AND CHOPPY SEAS IS EXPECTED TO
SUBSIDE AS THE DISTURBANCE MOVES FARTHER AWAY INTO YAP STATE. FURTHER
UPDATES WILL BE PROVIDED AS WE MONITOR TRENDS IN SATELLITE
OBSERVATIONS AND MODEL GUIDANCE.
RESIDENTS AND MARINERS SHOULD CONTINUE MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS
FOR THE REGION AT WEATHER.GOV/GUM/PUBLICFORECASTS AND ANY INFORMATION
SHARED BY WSO CHUUK FOR THEIR LOCAL REGION.
