TROPICAL CYCLONE IGGY
HURRICANE CENTER WIKIA AU112012
TUE JAN 27 2012 0200 UTC
Iggy continues to deepen meanwhile intensifying in wind speed by very little. Shear appears to be the greatest factor hindering the intensification of the storm. A relatively small sized pocket of low shear is located to the southeast of Iggy, which the storm will begin to enter. Shear tendency in the region is not changing very much so intensification should be expected soon.
