DATE: 30TH NOV 2021
TIME: 9:30PM BST (+6 GMT)

PERIOD: 2-4 DECEMBER 2021

---

An LPA from Gulf of Thailand has emerged into Andman Sea today. It could track WNW &  intensify into a Tropical Depression (≥45kph) around 2nd December over South Central adjoining SE Bay of Bengal.
.
▪️Due to having favourable conditions, it could  intensify into a Deep Depression or even a Cyclonic Storm over West Central adjoining Central Bay of Bengal by 3rd December.
.
▪️Overall confidence in the forecast is high as a Low Pressure Area has emerged over South Andaman Sea with maintaining well structure.
But MJO signal found between Phase 5-6 with Amplitude(≤1), which is not Supportive for Tropical development over Bay of Bengal.
But Sea Surface Temperature is favourable(29-30°C) over most parts of Bay of Bengal, which is conductive for the development process.
.
Wind shear is currently Low to Moderate(⬇️) over the System Center offsetting by relatively robust outflow aloft. And this combination is likely to sustain during the whole forecast period with more improvement further.

That’s why, It is having chances to intensify into a Depression then Deep Depression & further up to a Cyclonic Storm.
•Max intensity is dependent on the track & future condition of the Bay of Bengal which is skeptical right now.

Thus, The LPA, Low VWS, Outflow & other favourable parameters are leading High confidence in this forecast.
