841 AXPQ20 PGUM 080046 TWDPQ Tropical Weather Discussion National Weather Service Tiyan GU 1046 AM ChST Mon Dec 8 2025 Tropical Weather Discussion for the Western North Pacific between the Equator and 25N from 130E to 180. The following information is based on recent satellite imagery/data, weather observations, radar, and meteorological analysis. ...SPECIAL FEATURES... None. ...OTHER WEATHER SYSTEMS... NEAR EQUATORIAL TROUGH... Today the NET enters Guam`s AOR at 5N130E and extends east to a small circulation that has developed near 5N140E. It (the NET) then continues southeast to EQ170E. Mostly cloudy skies with scattered showers (locally numerous) are continuing to develop near the NET, and this looks to be the case the next few days as the NET gradually becomes more east to west orientated near the equator by the latter half of the week. TRADE-WIND SURGE... The trade-wind surge has expanded today, although the areal coverage of 20 to 25 knot winds has reduced significantly. In general, a broad area of 15 to 20 knot winds extends southwest to northeast from 6N to 23N, east of 155E. This surge is expected to continue weakening the next few days as the pressure gradient weakens some. Seas are generally in the 6 to 9 foot range in these areas. OTHER SYSTEMS... A cold front enters Guam`s AOR at 25N150E, transitioning to a shear line as it extends southwest, passing through the northern- most portions of the CNMI, before exiting Guam`s AOR at 17N130E. Mostly cloudy skies with scattered showers continues to develop along and behind this feature. This will continue to be the case the next few days as the shear lines slowly settles south before stalling. The shear line across Eastern Micronesia discussed yesterday has merged with the NET today. $$ Doll
