Forecast low pressure in the Indian Ocean has a complex direction, with little chance of strengthening into a storm.

According to storm news, the latest low pressure from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC), two low pressures are operating in the Indian Ocean.

The first low pressure, coded Invest 92B, is operating in the Bay of Bengal area. In the past 24 hours, the low pressure has moved in a North - Northeast direction, then suddenly turned southward.

The strongest wind near the center of the low pressure reached 30 km/h. JTWC forecasts that this low pressure is unlikely to strengthen into a tropical depression or storm in the next 24 hours.

Meanwhile, the second low pressure bearing the symbol Invest 94S is currently gradually weakening over the Southwest Indian Ocean. The strongest wind near the center of the low pressure reaches 30 km/h.

The low pressure moves in a South - Southeast direction and is also forecast to have a low probability of developing into a tropical depression or storm in the next 24 hours.

Because it is still quite far away, the two low pressures have not affected the adjacent mainland areas.
