Preseason

90S.INVEST

Unexpectedly, one invest on the Southwestern Indian Ocean just formed. It's at a low chance of formation according to JTWC. I doubt this would form. Hi!-68.106.0.77 02:49, August 9, 2017 (UTC)

Dissipated (according to JTWC). Anonymous 2.0 (talk) 19:04, August 10, 2017 (UTC)

Saw this a couple days ago on JTWC and was a bit surprised to see something being monitored down there during their winter. ~ Steve Talk Page My Edits 📧 05:03, August 12, 2017 (UTC)

91S.INVEST

Don't think many will read this, but we have another unusual early-season invest here in the SWIO. The JTWC is monitoring it with a low chance of development. ~ Steve Talk Page My Edits 📧 04:41, September 9, 2017 (UTC)

And another one... Hurricanes, hurricanes, hurricanes!-68.106.0.77 03:57, September 11, 2017 (UTC)

92S.INVEST

Here to report that another pre-season invest has formed west of the Seychelles. And it's up on JTWC with code yellow (low chance of developing). ~ Steve Talk Page My Edits 📧 03:20, September 28, 2017 (UTC)

Ok, the pre-season invests are getting annoying now. Hurricanes, hurricanes, hurricanes!-68.106.0.77 14:32, September 28, 2017 (UTC)

JTWC has now dropped it. ~ Steve Talk Page My Edits 📧 18:22, October 1, 2017 (UTC)
