 TROPICAL DEPRESSION ONE-C DISCUSSION NUMBER   1
 NWS CENTRAL PACIFIC HURRICANE CENTER HONOLULU HI   CP012008
 500 PM HST WED AUG 06 2008
 
 THE SMALL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TRACKED AS INVEST 92C FAR SOUTHEAST OF
 HAWAII HAS BECOME MORE ORGANIZED OVER THE PAST SIX HOURS...AND
 THOUGH STILL SMALL CAN NOW BE CALLED TD ONE-C. SATELLITE IMAGERY
 HAS SHOWN THAT A WELL-DEFINED SURFACE CENTER HAS FORMED DURING THE
 COURSE OF THE DAY...WITH PERSISTENT DEEP CONVECTION NEAR THE LOW
 LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER. DVORAK CLASSIFICATION FROM PHFO AND JTWC
 WERE 2.0 WITH SAB COMING IN AT 2.5. HAVE GONE WITH THE FIRST TWO...
 PLACING MAXIMUM WINDS AT 30 KT.
 
 TD ONE-C IS MOVING TO THE WEST AT ABOUT 12 KT...BEING DRIVEN BY DEEP
 EASTERLY TRADE WINDS SOUTH OF A LARGE SUBTROPICAL HIGH CENTERED
 NORTHEAST OF HAWAII. THE HIGH AND THE RIDGE EXTENDING WEST OF THE
 HIGH ARE NOT EXPECTED TO MOVE MUCH OR CHANGE MUCH IN STRENGTH OVER
 THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. THE FORECAST TRACK IS THEREFORE JUST AN
 EXTENTION OF ITS PRESENT MOVEMENT...AND FALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF A
 TIGHT PACK OF OBJECTIVE AIDS.
 
 THE DEPRESSION IS PRESENTLY OVER SEA-SURFACE TEMPERATURES OF ABOUT
 27 DEGREES CELSIUS...WITH LITTLE CHANGE EXPECTED DURING THE
 FORECAST PERIOD. THE WARM WATER IS JUST ENOUGH TO MAINTAIN OR EVEN
 CAUSE A SLOW STRENGTHENING OF THE DEPRESSION TO A TROPICAL STORM IN
 24 HOURS.
