Typhoon Man-yi emerged from an area of convection 220 km (140 mi) east of Kwajalein Atoll, with satellite imagery showing a more organized low-level circulation center and a persistent area of deep convection on the southwestern periphery on November 8.[1] By 09:00 UTC, the United States Joint Typhoon Warning Center(JTWC) issued a tropical cyclone formation alert for the disturbance, noting a favorable environment for development due to low to moderate vertical wind shear, good divergence aloft, and warm sea surface temperatures of 29–30 °C (84–86 °F).[2] The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) designated the disturbance as a low-pressure area on the same day,[3] and the next day, it was upgraded to a tropical depression.[4]
