Hate to start a new thread over this, but I'm in the midst of a brain fart. What's the technical term for when there are two tropical systems in different hemispheres that basically mirror each other?
The most recent example that I recall coincided with the MJO wave over the IO about a month ago (and over the WPAC), when we had 23S (Juba) in the south IO and 01A in the Arabian Sea.
Help!, and pre-thanks,

Most scientific papers on the subject call them "Twin cyclones" or "Twin tropical cyclones" or "cross-equatorial twin cyclones."
