120900Z POSITION NEAR 20.8N 70.3E. TROPICAL CYCLONE (TC) 01A (ONE), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 315 NM SOUTHEAST OF KARACHI, PAKISTAN, HAS TRACKED NORTHWESTWARD AT 06 KNOTS OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS. ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS CONVECTIVE TOPS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SYSTEM HAS WARMED AS FEEDER BANDS BEGAN TO FALL APART. THE INITIAL POSITION AND INTENSITY ARE EXTRAPOLATED FROM NEARBY SHIP OBSERVATIONS AND FROM A 120148Z WINDSAT SCATTEROMETRY GRAPHIC. MICROWAVE SATELLITE IMAGES INCLUDING A 120502Z AMSU-B PASS SHOW DECREASED REFLECTIVITY VALUES INDICATING REDUCED INTENSITY. UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS REVEALS EASTERLY VERTICAL WIND SHEAR HAS INCREASED TO 15-20 KNOTS AS THE RIDGE TO THE NORTH REORIENTED. THE LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER HAS BEGUN TO DRAG ALONG THE COAST OF THE GUJARAT PENINSULA. IN VIEW OF THE UNFAVORABLE CONDITIONS ABOVE, TC 01A IS EXPECTED TO RAPIDLY WEAKEN AND DISSIPATE BY TAU 12. THE AVAILABLE NUMERICAL GUIDANCE ARE IN FAIR AGREEMENT UP TO TAU 12 WITH THE EXCEPTION OF WBAR WHICH CONTINUES TO TRACK THE VORTEX WESTWARD. THIS TRACK FORECAST IS ALONGSIDE BUT SLOWER THAN CONSENSUS. THIS IS THE FINAL WARNING ON THIS SYSTEM BY THE JOINT TYPHOON WARNING CENTER. THE SYSTEM WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED FOR SIGNS OF REGENERATION
Latest 11:32am, visible satellite shot shows Heavy showers over S-W Gujarat and showers approaching Kutch region as well.
COLA model suggests that very little chance of re-generation in next 48 hrs.
