>>> There’s an area of disturbed weather being referred to as Invest 91S, which is located approximately 121 NM east of Cocos Islands.

Animated enhanced infrared satellite imagery depicts a broad area of turning with flaring, deep convection. Another image shows a loosely defined and poorly organized llcc.

Upper-level analysis indicates 91S is in a favorable environment for development with low (<15 knot) vws, good divergence aloft, and warm sea surface temperatures.

Global models are in good agreement that 91S will continue to track generally southward and, though overall conditions are favorable, the lack of a distinct, consolidated llcc at this time will serve to limit the potential development.

Maximum sustained surface winds are estimated at 23 to 28 knots.

The potential for the development of a significant tropical cyclone within the next 24 hours is low.
