Typhoon (TY) 03w (rammasun), located approximately 885 nm south- southeast of Naha, Okinawa, has tracked northward at 09 knots over the past six hours. The forecast philosophy has not changed since issuance of the previous warning. However, extratropical transition is now expected to begin by tau 72 and be complete by tau 96. Maximum significant wave height at 090600z is 18 feet. Next warnings at 091500z, 092100z, 100300z and 100900z.//
