      On May 9, 2022, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer on   
      NASA’s Terra satellite acquired a true-color image of Tropical Cyclone   
      Karim spinning over the southern Indian Ocean.   
      
      On May 7, the cyclone formed from Tropical Disturbance 90S and was   
      given the name Karim by the Mauritius Meteorological Service. At that   
      time, Karim's maximum sustained winds reached 65 km/h (40 mph) with   
      gusts to 95 km/h (60 mph) and the storm was moving to the southeast.   
      
      By 1800 UTC (2:00 p.m. EDT) on May 9, Tropical Cyclone Karim had   
      strengthened, with maximum sustained winds reaching 112 km/h (70 mph)   
      with gusts to 138 km/h (86 mph). The center of the storm was located   
      about 409 miles (658 miles) west-southwest of the Cocos Islands,   
      Australia. The storm was tracking south-southeastward and was not   
      anticipated to pose significant hazard to any land. Tropical Cyclone   
      Karim is moving into unfavorable conditions, with increasing wind   
      shear. Forward motion is expected to stall and through May 11 then be   
      turned back towards the northwest on May 12, when Karim is expected to   
      quickly dissipate.
