Summary
| Description |
English: This colored visible image of Intense Tropical Cyclone Fabien over the high seas of the Indian Ocean was captured on the morning of 17 May 2023 at 02:00 UTC, shortly after sunrise, by the Spinning Enhanced Visible and InfraRed Imager (SEVIRI) instrument flying aboard EUMETSAT's Meteosat 9 satellite. Fabien was a relatively intense late-season tropical cyclone, and it was the tenth depression, tenth named or namable storm, and third intense tropical cyclone of the 2022-23 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season. When this image was taken, Fabien was coming off its peak intensity and was located near the British Indian Ocean Territory. The intensity of the cyclone when this image was taken was winds of 170 km/h (105 mph) (90 knots) on the 10-min Météo-France cyclone scale, making it an "Intense Tropical Cyclone" on the scale, and according to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center, it had 1-min sustained winds of 175 km/h (110 mph) (95 knots) making it equivalent to a "Category 3 major hurricane," on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, the official minimum central pressure (provided by the MFR) was at or around 962 mbar (28.4 inHg). |
