Tropical Update: 10 Mar

#1 Postby senorpepr » Wed Mar 10, 2004 1:30 pm

:rarrow: A) TC Gafilo (16S): At 10/1730Z...
Position near 23.0S 45.9E (220nm SSW of Antananarivo, Madagascar)
Movement toward the SE at 15 mph
Maximum sustained winds are 45 mph
Minimum central pressure is 994 mb
T# numbers: Overland

Gafilo made landfall once again around 2300Z last night near Morombe, Madagascar. Expect Gafilo to track across Madagascar while weakening. Once the cyclone leaves land, expect poor chances at restrengthening.

Nicky is maintaining her current strength. Expect increasing shear to weaken Nicky along with convergence aloft.

98S, the remnants of TC Evan (15P), is still meandering throughout the Indian Ocean. The JTWC has giving 98S a poor chance at redevelopment.
