The next name is "Yemyin."

The Pakistan Meteorological Department referred to Tropical Cyclone 03B as "Tropical Cyclone Yemyin". However, the official WMO body responsible for tropical cyclones in the Arabian Sea, the India Meteorological Department, did not name the storm. Thus, the storm officially has no name and the name "Yemyin" remained unused after the storm.

See, this is why I stick to tracking ATL storms.

I'm not saying it will be like this but here are three reasons to watch this system.

# 1970 Bhola cyclone, killed between 100,000 to 500,000 people in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh)
# 1991 Bangladesh cyclone, killed 138,000 people in the Chittagong region of Bangladesh
# 1999 Orissa cyclone, killed around 10,000 people in the Orissa state of India[3]

Due to the naming controversy, I propose that the cyclone be referred to as TC9B regardless as to what IMD calls it. We should not give the IMD any legitimacy as they do not deserve any

I agree, I do think the nhc is slow and trends to not upgrade some systems. But they do there job if a system is close to land. In they do a good job, and for that I've got a high level of respect for them.
I think the WMO needs to look into this and give another country the power.

I don't think this will become "Yemyin" (assuming it gets a name at all). Yemyin was responsible for 1000 deaths, so the name has already stuck.

Just as I post that they update it. This data is still 6 hours old however.

BOB 09/2007/03 Dated: 11 November, 2007

Sub: Deep Depression over Southeast Bay of Bengal.

The depression over southeast Bay of Bengal And adjoining Andaman Sea has intensified into a deep depression and moved northwestwards. It lay centered at 2330 hours IST of 11th November 2007 over southeast Bay of Bengal and adjoining Andaman Sea near Lat. 10.5 Deg N and Long. 91.5 Deg E, about 200 Kms southwest of Port Blair. The system is likely to intensify further and move in a northwesterly direction.

Under its influence, rain/thundershowers at most places with heavy to very heavy falls at a few places and isolated extremely heavy falls ( 25 cm or more ) are likely over Andaman and Nicobar Islands during next 48 hours.

Squally winds speed reaching 55-65 kmph are likely over Andaman and Nicobar Islands and adjoining sea areas during next 48 hours. Sea condition is very rough to high around the system centre. Fishermen are advised not to venture into the sea during the next 48 hours.

Yes, the next name should be Sidr. The IMD's mid-year report called it Yemyin. The article has yet to be updated because we're waiting for confirmation (that is, the IMD actually getting off their butts and naming a system).

It should be noted that IMD doesn't usually issue advisories at night, so don't waste any time waiting for one until tomorrow morning.

It's actually had an eye since this time last night.

EDIT: One last thing - this is TC 06B, Derek, not 09B. ;)

I said it had a eye, I said nothing about how long it had it. These indian systems can get strong fast, so this should be a interesting system.

The only problem with this system is that it formed very far south, near the Andamans, giving it time to slowly track northward and strengthen.

The only good thing is that the IMD cannot possibly let this slip by if it threatens India as a VSCS.

I agree, this thing has a lot of time. In if it heads northward and strengthens, this could become something "bad" as powerful system. But its to early to tell how strong and were it will hit. I say based on latest satellite with 85h data, that it is not quite up to what we would call a hurricane. Maybe 55-60 knots one minute, or around 45 knots 10 minute. I would expect a slow strengthen to 70-75 knots over the next 24 hours, with a movement north-northwestward.

Their website could go offline again just before this thing makes landfall. :P It still might not be named by then.

have been thinking about the thread title

Why don't we just call this TC9B. I know the official word is always used for naming, but this is not like the WPAC where a good agency (JMA) is issuing the official products. I recommend not using IMD products until they are of the appropriate quality

This isn't 9B, it's 6B, but the 9th depression that the IMD has warned on this year.
