Tropical Depression 09W is currently located to the north of Kosrae
near 9.2N 163E, and is moving northwest at 8 mph. Maximum sustained
winds are 35 mph. 09W is expected to slightly turn toward the west-
northwest and speed up, generally tracking west-northwest through the
coming days. Although the time frame is still very uncertain, and Yap
and Palau are expected to remain well outside of TD 09W's direct
wind field, surging west to southwest winds around 20 to 25 knots are
expected to develop across the region south to southwest of the
storm. Models suggest west winds around 15 to 20 knots will begin to
pick up for Yap and Palau late Sunday, peaking sometime early next
week with potential to generate choppy, hazardous seas which could
make inter-island travel hazardous. As TD 09W develops and begins to
move north to northeast of the region, surging west to southwest
swell looks to develop, which will lead to elevated, and potentially
hazardous surf in the first half of next week.
