The tropical disturbance is the white spinny thing marked 'poor'.
There IS a tropical cyclone in the Indian Ocean, but in the southern Indian Ocean. That's the thing marked 'TC01S'.
Nothing to worry about at all just yet folks.
I just don't understand why people keep believing/spreading these rumours...honestly, please, in this age of TV and the internet, how hard can it be to actually verify a bit of information?
ReplyDeleteCome on my fellow citizens, let's spend a little bit of effort, altogether now, you can do it, yes, that's it....Wait, what? No? Spending a little bit of mental effort to verify absurd rumours is too difficult? Very well then, carry on. Sigh.
