NEAR EQUATORIAL TROUGH... A NET extends from EQ159E passes south of Chuuk to 5N139E to the south of Yap. A broad and weak circulation is embedded within the NET around 4N148E. Scattered showers are seen along and just north of the NET. These features will generally shift westward over the coming days. TRADE-WIND TROUGHS... A couple of trade-wind troughs exist across the region. The first extends from near 10N162E to 1N167E. Scattered showers are seen to the west of this trough, impacting islands between Kosrae and Pohnpei. The next trough extends from just southwest of Guam at 13N142E to 4N144E where the trough meets the NET. Scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms have been seen to the southwest of Guam along the trough. These features will generally move westward over the coming days. TUTT...
