REMARKS:
231500Z1 POSITION NEAR 21.2N5 122.5E0. 
TROPICAL STORM (TS) 02W (KUJIRA), LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 250 NM 
SOUTH-SOUTHEAST OF TAIPEI, TAIWAN, HAS REMAINED NEARLY STATIONARY 
OVER THE PAST 06 HOURS. THE WARNING POSITION IS BASED ON 
231130Z0 ENHANCED INFRARED SATELLITE IMAGERY. THE WARNING INTENSITY 
IS BASED ON SATELLITE CURRENT INTENSITY ESTIMATES OF 30 AND 35 
KNOTS. TS 02W HAS ONCE AGAIN BECOME A SPIRAL BANDING SYSTEM OVER THE 
PAST 6 HOURS, WITH THE LOW LEVEL CIRCUALTION CENTER (LLCC) UNDER THE 
DEEP CONVECTION, BUT REMAINS A WEAK SYSTEM DUE TO THE EFFECTS OF 
LESS THAN 26 DEGREE CENTIGRADE SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURES. MAXIMUM 
SIGNIFICANT WAVE HEIGHT AT 231200Z8 IS 18 FEET. REFER TO WWPW31 RJTX 
FOR ADDITIONAL SEA HEIGHT INFORMATION. NEXT WARNINGS AT 232100Z8, 
240300Z9, 240900Z5 AND 241500Z2. RELEASED BY LT INGRAM, USN.//
