Just had a call from Beira 35 knot winds..take a look at the SA Weather massive cyclone to South West of Madagascar, seems like Mozambique is going to get nailed again.

Cyclone season is from December to April

As you can see [below], the cyclone has made land.

Cyclone season is from December to April - just look at them "stacking up" so to speak.

They usually form at about E072 00 & S15 00 and move in SW direction. Hardly ever get to above S10 00. This makes Seychelles, Chagos etc. relatively safe at this time of year.

Eish - imagine being in a small craft out there :!:
