Tropical Cyclone 08S

Madagascar is the place to be if you like tropical weather. East coast, west coast, it doesn't matter! If you saw the update yesterday, you'll know that the storm on the east coast has been upgraded to a tropical cyclone. If it increases at all in intensity, it should be given the name Eric. On the other side of Madagascar, what is currently known as 95S Invest should be upgraded this afternoon. Not to be out done, there has been an impressive flareup of convection in the West Pacific with one area being watched for development.
