The second–ever known tropical cyclone1（热带气旋） in the South Atlantic Ocean can't escape satellite eyes, and today, the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite（地球静止业务环境卫星） , GOES-12 captured a visible image of Tropical Storm 90Q now located off the coast of Argentina. GOES-12 satellite captured an image of Tropical Storm 90Q at 1745 UTC (12:45 p.m. ET) today, March 12, when it was more than 1,350 miles east of Buenos Aires, Argentina, approximately（大约，近似） near 36.5 degrees South latitude2 and 34.8 degrees West longitude3. At 10 a.m. ET today, Tropical Storm 90Q still had maximum sustained winds near 46 mph (40 knots).

GOES-12 is operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric4 Administration, and images are created by NASA's GOES Project, located at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md.

Tropical Storm 90Q is now moving quickly in a southeasterly（往东南） direction and is starting to interact with a mid-latitude（纬度，界限） frontal system. By the end of the weekend, the Southern Atlantic Ocean's second tropical storm in recorded history is expected to be merged5 with a cold front and just remain in the history books.
