ANIMATED VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS 2 DISTINCT COMMA-SHAPED AREAS OF SUSTAINED AND DEEPENING CONVECTION BEGINNING TO WRAP INTO AND ORGANIZE AROUND A CONSOLIDATING LOW LEVEL CIRCULATION CENTER (LLCC). A 100425Z ASCAT PASS SHOWS WEAK WINDS AT THE CORE OF A DISTINCT CIRCULATION CENTER WITH STRONGER (15 TO 25 KNOT) FLOW LOCATED APPROXIMATELY ONE DEGREE TO THE NORTH AND SOUTH OF THE LLCC. COLOMBO (VCBI) IS CURRENTLY REPORTING SEA LEVEL PRESSURE AT 1006 MB, WHICH REPRESENTS A 1 MB DECREASE FROM 24 HOURS AGO. SUSTAINED WINDS ARE OUT OF THE NORTH-NORTHWEST AT 08 KNOTS. THE UPPER LEVEL ENVIRONMENT IS CONDUCIVE FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT WITH LOW VERTICAL WIND SHEAR AND STRONG RADIAL, AND ENHANCED POLEWARD, OUTFLOW. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 15 TO 20 KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 1004 MB.
