Part of the 2022–23 Australian region and South Pacific cyclone seasons | |
Tropical Depression 05F, also known as Tropical Low 06U, is a long lived, currently active tropical cyclone. The 5th tropical low and tropical disturbance of the 2023–24 Australian region cyclone season and 2023–24 South Pacific cyclone season respectively, 05F emerged as a subtropical low on January 30.
Meteorological history
Tropical storm (39–73 mph, 63–118 km/h)
Category 1 (74–95 mph, 119–153 km/h)
Category 2 (96–110 mph, 154–177 km/h)
Category 3 (111–129 mph, 178–208 km/h)
Category 4 (130–156 mph, 209–251 km/h)
Category 5 (≥157 mph, ≥252 km/h)
Unknown
On January 30, the BoM reported that Subtropical Low 06U had developed off the southern coast of Queensland.[1] Over the next couple of days, the system moved north-eastwards before it into the South Pacific basin during February 1, where it was classified as Tropical Disturbance 05F by the Fiji Meteorological Service.[2]
Under a moderately sheared environment with warm sea surface temperatures. The disturbance's convective structure rapidly deteriorated in the low-level circulation center (LLLC).[3] However, the system quickly re-developed LLLC, and three days later,[4][5] the system moved eastwards onto the boundary of the region—the 160th meridian east—at approximately 12:00 UTC on February 5, before returning to the Southern Pacific basin proper on February 7, and the JTWC issued a TCFA on the low, noting that it was likely to intensify significantly.[6][7] The next day, the agency upgraded the system to tropical storm, initiating advisories on it as Tropical Cyclone 12P.[8] The storm continued to be negatively effected by northwesterly wind shear.[9] Later, the storm began undergoing rapid expansion, with a central cold cover along with colder convective tops.[10] However, as it moved over Epi island in Vanuatu, its weakly-defined and exposed LLLC embedded in deep convection.[11][12] Shortly afterward, the JTWC issued their final warning, as it became elongated due to a dry air intrusion.[13][14] Over the next few weeks, the FMS continued monitoring the system as a tropical disturbance.
