Freddy doubled back with renewed fury, and did Malawi, Mozambique and Madagascar bad.

So there are 3 systems worth watching at this time, 1 in the South Pacific and 2 in the South Indian Ocean

First up Tropical Cyclone Freddy which is currently a Category Severe Tropical Cyclone on the Australian Tropical Cyclone Scale, or Category 1 Hurricane on the SSHWS and looks like it will reach Category 4 on the ATCS which is Category 2-3 on the SSHWS

Tropical Cyclone Gabrielle is currently a Category 1 Tropical Cyclone which is equivalent to Tropical Storm on the SSHWS however it too looks like it will develop into a significant Tropical Cyclone and potentially impact North Island of Aotearoa (New Zealand)

Currently 94S is still a Tropical Low or Tropical Depression the GFS Ensemble shows it has some potential to also become a Significant Tropical Cyclone, The Australian Bureau of Meteorology only shows it getting to Category 2 but this is likely because it is right at the edge of their Area of Responsibility when it crosses it will be within Meteo France Area of Responsibility
