The Central Pacific Hurricane Center issued its first discussion on Tropical Depression Three-C at 5 a.m. HST Sunday, Oct. 25. The system, previously tracked as CP94 near the International Date Line, became better organized overnight.

Forecasters said showers and thunderstorms began organizing late Saturday, and an overnight scatterometer pass found a small but well-defined circulation. A microwave pass also showed curved bands, especially on the system's northern side, and Himawari-9 and GOES-18 imagery has tracked its development.

The discussion was issued from the National Hurricane Center in Miami on the Honolulu center's behalf. Residents can follow the official forecast cone and advisories on the CPHC site.
