PEIPAH is in a region with very little steering. It also appears to have multiple competing vortices, which adds to the difficulty in locating the storm and predicting its future movement. A general track to NW is expected, but confidence is low.

琵琶附近流場非常弱，加上它似乎有數個渦旋，增加定位及路徑預測的難度。預料琵琶仍大致會向西北移動，但此佈信心偏低。

Current T-number 現時的 T 號碼: T2.5/2.5/S0.0/24 HRS

PEIPAH fails to retain convections near its centre, resulting in an asymmetric structure with no development over the past 24 hours. Wind shear has further heightened and the storm is now not expected to intensify much before reaching the Philippines.

Current T-number 現時的 T 號碼: T2.0/2.0/S0.0/24 HRS

05W's low-level circulation centre is exposed and the storm cannot consolidate its vertical structure. Wind shear appears to have heightened in the area, which will further limit development. Nevertheless, decent sea temperatures should allow the storm to intensify in the long run.

05W 的低層環流中心外露，垂直結構未能整固。該區垂直風切變有所增加，令 05W 更難發展。但由於該區海溫仍非常高，預料 05W 長遠仍會增強。

05W's convections are apparently spinning around its centre. Sea temperatures and shear conditions are favourable to storm development, but due to the lack of Coriolis force at low latitudes, initial intensification could be slow.

05W 的對流明顯繞中心轉動。雖然該區海溫及垂直風切變環境皆適合熱帶氣旋增強，但由於低緯度科氏力較弱，05W 初期的增強速度或會較慢。
