2.C ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
FT=CI=2.0
IN THE LAST FEW HOURS, A CURVED BAND ASSOCIATED WITH A LOT OF
ELECTRICAL ACTIVITY HAS FORMED IN THE EASTERN SEMICIRCLE. THE 1630Z
ASCENT SHOWS THAT THE CENTER IS ELONGATED AND LOCATED TO THE
SOUTHWEST OF THE BAND. WINDS OF 30 KT ARE PRESENT IN THE NORTHEAST
QUADRANT (RELATED TO THE BAND), THE SYSTEM IS THEREFORE RECLASSIFIED
AS A TROPICAL DEPRESSION DESPITE A SOMEWHAT ATYPICAL STRUCTURE.
THE SYSTEM SHOULD CONTINUE TRACKING SOUTH-EASTWARDS AHEAD OF A
MID-LATITUDES TROUGH. THE MAJORITY OF THE AVAILABLE GUIDANCE SUGGEST
A PASSAGE AT MORE THAN 100 KM IN THE SOUTH-WEST OF REUNION ISLAND
SUNDAY MORNING, EVEN IF MEDIUM UNCERTAINTY REMAINS ON THE EXACT
TRACK. EARLY NEXT WEEK, THE SYSTEM SHOULD BE CAPTURED BY A
MID-LATITUDES TROUGH WHICH SHOULD BRING IT SOUTH OF 25S, FAR FROM THE
INHABITED ISLANDS, ALONG A SOUTH-EASTWARDS THEN SOUTH-SOUTH-EASTWARDS
TRACK. AT THE END OF THE TAUS, THE RESIDUAL DEPRESSION MIGHT BE
TEMPORARILY SLOWED DOWN BY THE ARRIVAL OF A NEW ANTICYCLONE FROM THE
WEST.
THE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ARE MIXED: IN SPITE OF AN EXCELLENT
DIVERGENCE AT THE FRONT OF THE TROUGH, THE SHEAR SHOULD STRENGTHEN
BUT SHOULD BE COMPENSATED INITIALLY BY THE RAPID FORWARD MOTION IN
THE SAME DIRECTION. IT COULD EVENTUALLY REACH THE MODERATE TROPICAL
STORM STAGE TOMORROW. BY SUNDAY BECAUSE OF THE STRONGER SHEAR AND THE
INCREASINGLY BAROCLINIC ENVIRONMENT, THE LOW IS EXPECTED TO START ITS
EXTRATROPICAL TRANSITION.
IN TERMS OF IMPACT FOR THE MASCARENES, INTENSE AND STORMY RAINS ARE
EXPECTED AND LOCALLY STRONG WINDS THAT CAN EXCEED 100 KM/H IN GUSTS
ARE EXPECTED AT LA REUNION. A DEGRADATION OF LESSER MAGNITUDE IS
POSSIBLE ON SUNDAY IN MAURITIUS.=
