South Indian Ocean

>>> There’s an area of disturbed weather being referred to as Invest 25S, which is located approximately 407 NM south of Des Galets, La Reunion Island

The system is currently classified as a subtropical cyclone, generally characterized as having both tropical and mid-latitude cyclone features.

Animated enhanced infrared imagery depict an area of relatively disorganized area of cyclonic rotation previously known as tropical cyclone 25S, the area is marked by dislodged convection from the assessed llcc.

Environmental conditions are indicated to be unfavorable for development as the area of convection 25S is currently under high (30-40 knot) vertical wind shear and has poor upper level outflow. As the disorganized area transits farther into cooler waters the subtropical nature of the system will become more defined over the next 12-24 hours.

Global models and ensemble members are in concurrence that 25S will continue its southerly transit over the next 24-48 hours and does not show any promising signs of remembering that it’s a tropical cyclone.

Maximum sustained surface winds are estimated at 37 to 43 knots.

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