RMKS/
1. WESTERN NORTH PACIFIC AREA (180 TO MALAY PENINSULA):
   A. TROPICAL CYCLONE SUMMARY: NONE.
   B. TROPICAL DISTURBANCE SUMMARY:
      (1) AN AREA OF CONVECTION HAS PERSISTED NEAR 16.3N 128.5E,
APPROXIMATELY 450 NM EAST-NORTHEAST OF MANILA, PHILIPPINES. RECENT
ANIMATED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS FLARING DEEP CONVECTION
ASSOCIATED WITH A DEVELOPING LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC)
EVIDENT IN A 071043Z SSMIS MICROWAVE IMAGE. A RECENT PARTIAL ASCAT
IMAGE DEPICTS 15 TO 20 KNOTS OF WIND OVER THE OUTER PORTION OF THE
DEVELOPING LLCC. THE DISTURBANCE LIES BENEATH AN UPPER LEVEL ANTI-
CYCLONE IN AN AREA OF LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND MODERATE TO
STRONG DIFFLUENCE ALOFT. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE EST-
IMATED AT 12 TO 18 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED
TO BE NEAR 1006 MB. BECAUSE THE LLCC IS WEAK, THE POTENTIAL FOR
THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT
24 HOURS IS POOR.
      (2) NO OTHER SUSPECT AREAS.
2. SOUTH PACIFIC AREA (WEST COAST OF SOUTH AMERICA TO 135 EAST):
   A. TROPICAL CYCLONE SUMMARY: NONE.
   B. TROPICAL DISTURBANCE SUMMARY: NONE.
3. JUSTIFICATION FOR REISSUE: ADDED AREA IN PARA 1.B.(1) AS POOR.
