Daily weather brief – Wednesday, December 7, 2016

NWPAC outlook, 07 DEC

NORTH

The newest surge of Siberian air is moving through the north region today, bringing snow showers to parts of Mongolia and northern China. Another storm system to the east is rolling through Korea and Japan, and will simply serve to dry the air out ahead of the surge to come through from the northwest later this week. Fog and low clouds will dampen the day a bit across eastern China, while the remainder of the region will see a mix of sun and clouds and chilly late-autumn temperatures.

CENTRAL

The central region is warming up a bit as the air mass to previously move through the area moderates a bit ahead of a new surge coming down in the coming days. A few showers will fall across Taiwan and the strong northeasterly flow rolls moisture up the steep terrain of the island, while the remainder of the region will see plenty of sunshine with a few scattered clouds, with increased coverage as you travel northward.

SOUTH

Drier air is still in place across central Indochina, helping to keep the clouds to a minimum there, while moisture from a weak tropical disturbance east of the Philippines gets trucked into the archipelago on the strength of the seasonal northeast monsoon flow. Moisture remains over the remainder of the region as well, as the drier conditions have failed to infiltrate those locales. Temperatures will be seasonably warm across the region with a chance of afternoon showers and thunderstorms possible for most locations.

TROPICS

A weak tropical disturbance continues to keep our attention east of the Philippines, while the remainder of the region stays relatively quiet.

TAAG, 07 DEC

90W INVEST continues to linger about to the east of the Philippines as is works its way very slowly to the west in the general flow of the I.T.C.Z. (Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone). Most forecast models show no development of this system, however, the G.F.S. model has been flip-flopping on strength and direction forecasts over the past several runs. At this time, the system doesn’t appear to be a major threat to any populated areas in the near-term.

90W INVEST, 07 DEC

The remainder of the tropics will see plentiful moisture and warm sunshine combining to bring about a good chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms, with the exception of the more northerly locations, which will see just a few clouds mixed in with the sunshine.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
