The storm had maximum wind speeds of 23m/s before dissipating. This layer shows the occurence of the tropical cyclone in Woqooyi Galbeed province, Somalia. 1984 TC 1A remained a compact system throughout its life. Even at its maximum intensity of 45 kt (23 m/s) between 00002 and 06002 on 27 May, the radius of greater than 30 kt (15 m/s) winds was estimated to be only 60 nm (111 km).  The cyclone moved north-westward until late on the 26th, then turned to the west-southwest and entered the Gulf of Aden in response to a strong subtropical ridge over Saudi Arabia.The storm then transited up the Gulf of Aden until it made landfall at 03002 on 28 May, approximately 35 nm (65 Km) west of Berbera, Somalia. There were no reports of damages or injuries from this system.
