Bejisa's eye passed very close to the West of the French island of Reunion yesterday when maximum sustained winds were estimated to be 105 kts (~121 mph). Bejisa spawned wave heights of 8 meters (~26 feet), caused several serious injuries and extensive power outages. The TRMM satellite had a daytime view of Bejisa today at 1348 UTC after the tropical cyclone's sustained wind speeds had decreased to less than 60kts (~69 mph). Bejisa's past positions are shown overlaid in red on a rainfall analysis made from TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI) and Precipitation Radar (PR) data collected with this pass. TRMM found that Bejisa's no longer had an eye, a slot of dry air was shown wrapping around the center and heavy rainfall near the center of circulation had almost ended

The 3-D view of Bejisa above reveals that the most powerful thunderstorms near Bejisa's center of circulation were then only reaching about 10km (~6.2 miles). Bejisa is predicted to continue gradually weakening while moving more rapidly toward the southwest over the open waters of the South Indian Ocean.
