Before a depression is recognised, it is usually tagged an "INVEST" storm - an area of low pressure with the potential to strengthen into a cyclone. INVESTs are tracked by the MSHPC's satellite bureau in Kompa Ru or the Warning sub-bureau in Cyclonesville with advisories, called Tropical Weather Updates effective 2144 (formerly known as INVEST tracker), on potential systems every 6 hours.
