There continues to be an area in the South Indian Ocean, circled in orange above, that may develop into a significant tropical cyclone. This area, that’s being covered by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC), is located approximately 665 NM east of Diego Garcia. Satellite imagery shows an elongated, consolidating low level circulation center, with convective banding features. Maximum sustained winds are running 20-25 knots (23-29 mph).

Meanwhile, upper level analysis continues to show a marginal environment, with moderate to strong 20-30 knot (23-35 mph) northerly wind shear.  Minimum sea level pressure is estimated to be near 1004 millibars (~29.6 inches of mercury). The JTWC is giving the potential for the development of this tropical disturbance, within 24 hours…to be medium once again today.
