AWIO20 FMEE 021110 TROPICAL CYCLONE CENTER / RSMC LA REUNION / METEO-FRANCE BULLETIN FOR CYCLONIC ACTIVITY AND SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL WEATHER IN THE SOUTHWEST INDIAN OCEAN DATE: 2026/07/02 A 1200 UTC PART 1: WARNING SUMMARY NIL. PART 2 : TROPICAL WEATHER DISCUSSION: The basin is back in a winter configuration. Convective activity is weak in the trade wind lag zone east of 80o E. Over the next five days, a near-equatorial trough could re-emerge in the eastern part of the basin under the influence of an equatorial Rossby wave (n=0), though it will likely be very close to the equator and have relatively weak equatorial convergence. Development of a tropical storm is not expected over the next 5 days. 10-day outlook: Nothing to report. NOTA BENE: The likelihood is an estimate of the chance of genesis of a moderate tropical storm over the basin within the next five days: Very low: less than 10% Moderate: 30% to 60% Very high: over 90% Low: 10% to 30% High: 60% to 90% The Southwestern Indian ocean basin extends from the Equator to 40S and from the african coastlines to 90E.
