90P isn't looking too bad at the moment, especially considering that it is still over land and has been for quite some time now. However, the system is somewhat sprawling, which will hurt how strong the system can get in the limited amount of time it has over favorable waters. Water temps drop off sharply near the western end of Australia.

Here are the BoM and JTWC forecasts for 03S. They look rather agreeable to me.

Bom is very slow to name this as a TS. Maybe they are waiting on a ascat pass ? OR another 6hrs for winds to catchup. Conventional satellite estimates are roughly between 40/50kts.

MEH maybe the Bom needs to look @ all the data and pull their finger out and name this before shear rips it apart.
0r perhaps they go back to reconnaissance flights.

BOM requires gales in 3 quadrants

BOM has this with 45 kt winds. However, gales are only in 2 quadrants, so according to their absurd definition of a TC, it is not a TC

A cyclone could have 100 kt winds. But if there are gales in only 2 quadrants due to a very rapid motion, it's not a TC

we should relabel the title to tropical low. It's not a TD as winds are 45 kts according to the BOM

As for it getting named, I do not expect it to. It's likely near its peak now as it is starting to move over cooler waters
