SWIO: Belna - Tropical Storm
This appears to be the area La Reunion is monitoring as well.

Re: SWIO: Invest 91S
Most models develop this into a TD by tomorrow and have it make landfall in northern Madagascar by late Saturday/early Sunday. We could see a hurricane-equivalent system out of this in a few days.

I am only a meteorology enthusiast who knows a decent amount about tropical cyclones. Look to the professional mets, the NHC, or your local weather office for the best information.

Re: SWIO: Disturbance 02 (Invest 91S)
12z GFS takes this a little further west, where it misses the northern tip of Madagascar and enters a pocket of higher SSTs/OHC with a maximum potential intensity of 880-890 mbar and >150 kt. While 91S is unlikely to get close to that (the models are pretty lukewarm on intensity estimates), we could still see a moderately significant system out of this. It already seems to be a TD as of the 12z best track update.

Re: SWIO: Disturbance 02 (Invest 91S)
18z GFS is more aggressive (<970 mbar) and keeps 91S within the NW Madagascar hot spot.

Re: SWIO: Depression (02S)
5Z ASCAT had 40kt winds, yet no upgrade from La Reunion. Wake up, people!

Re: SWIO: Belna - Tropical Storm
Belna may also be gearing up for a phase of RI. The CDO has become larger and much more impressive over the last 12 hours, comparable to that of Ambali before it started ERI. Microwave imagery also shows a forming eyewall as some of the experimental intensity estimations put it near 65 kt.

Re: SWIO: Belna - Tropical Storm
Due to its track and expected intensification this system is very dangerous as if the people in southeast Africa didn't have enough with that imperactive last season

Re: SWIO: Belna - Severe Tropical Storm
Belma’s eye is appearing as it moves closer to the hot spot off the NW Madagascar coast. Rapid intensification could be starting soon, either today or tomorrow.

Re: SWIO: Belna - Tropical Cyclone
Microwave pass from a few hours ago shows a closed and very well defined eyewall: http://rammb.cira.colostate.edu/product ... 070910.GIF
