The initial guidance solutions for this system are quite concerning, so as the analogs.

I wonder what will be ECMWF's take on this.

Euro is also on board with development of 90B.
EC like other guidance shows a recurve before landfall in India.
The timing of the possible recurvature will be a big determinant of its impact

no indications that this will be a monster. Likely a 45-60 kt cyclone is what this will amount to

Very impressive on satellite now. Good banding, well-defined LLC apparent. May be a tropical storm already. Agree that there are no indications of a "monster", but a moderate TS looks likely.

No "monster" in sight according to guidance.
However, the modeled path moves 90B towards the vulnerable region of the Ganges Dela/ Bangladesh.

Euro barely develops 90B but agrees on a recurve toward the aforementioned region.

This thing has been Depression BOB 04 for at least a day now.

Also IMD is predicting it to intensify into a deep depression, although it seems JTWC has given up on it. I'm expecting it probably won't get a name at this point, even if it does reach cyclonic storm/tropical storm strength.
