Hmmm... Not at all, since deep convection has to stay during 12 hours at least and this whirl of clouds I think hasn' got deep convection.

Anyway, its appearance is very impressive.

Then, I believe that you don't know this rare case of tropical cyclone over land... Namibia, January 2010.

I built a nice thread with this issue.
