The 1994–95 South-West Indian Ocean cyclone season was fairly active, with storms forming regularly from October through April.

The first named storm was Albertine, which formed on November 23 in the northeastern portion of the basin and became one of three intense tropical cyclones.

In late December into early January, tropical storms Bentha and Christelle persisted to the east of Madagascar, undergoing the Fujiwhara effect with each other.

In February, Gail produced gusty winds on Rodrigues, and Tropical Storm Heida entered the basin from Australian region.

Tropical storms Josta and Kylie developed toward the beginning of March from the same overall system, affecting Madagascar and Réunion, respectively.

After they dissipated, Tropical Depression Lidy caused flooding and damage on Rodrigues due to heavy rainfall.

Late on November 25, an eye developed in the center of the convection, and Albertine intensified to tropical cyclone status the next day.

The eye gradually became better organized, attaining a diameter of 90 km (55 mi) on November 28 as Albertine became an intense tropical cyclone.

On November 30, the center passed about 110 km (68 mi) northwest of Rodrigues after weakening to severe tropical storm status.

The latter system organized into Tropical Disturbance B1 on December 27, but wind shear in the region prevented significant development and dislocated the center from the thunderstorms.

As it neared the country, the system turned westward and intensified into a tropical depression after developing a spiral band of convection.

[1] Both Bentha and Christelle brought gusty winds and rainfall to Mauritius, and caused Réunion to be under a cyclone watch for five days.

[7] The same broad system that spawned Christelle also produced an area of convection southwest of Diego Garcia toward the end of December.

The system passed about 250 km (155 mi) north of Réunion on January 6, dissipating shortly thereafter near Tromelin Island while being absorbed into Christelle.

[1] Both Bentha and Christelle brought gusty winds and rainfall to Mauritius, and caused Réunion to be under a cyclone watch for five days.

[1] The ITCZ spawned an area of convection and a vortex in the northeastern portion of the basin on January 18, which organized into a tropical disturbance that day.

[3] Dorina quickly intensified into a tropical cyclone by January 21,[9] developing a 40 km (25 mi) eye in the center of the convection.

[9] After moving over an area of cooler waters, Dorina began weakening, indicated by the previously well-defined eye becoming ragged.

Subsequently, Dorina turned back to the southwest and later to the south, influenced by another passing trough that had absorbed Tropical Storm Fodah.

The system intensified into Tropical Storm Heida on February 5 while moving west-southwestward, although the convection never organized beyond a disorganized central dense overcast.

[1] The JTWC initiated advisories that day as Tropical Cyclone 11S,[3] and Heida quickly attained peak winds of 75 km/h (45 mph).

A trough in the region steered the circulation to the south-southwest and increased wind shear, resulting in Heida's dissipation on February 8.

[14] On Mauritius, winds gusted to 91 km/h (56 mph) at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport,[15] and the storm produced high waves.

[17] An extended series of low-pressure areas spawned what would become Tropical Storm Josta on March 5 near the Comoros in the northern Mozambique Channel.

On March 12, the circulation dissipated off the northwest coast of Madagascar, partially due to the influence of the stronger Kylie to the southeast.

The convection organized on March 10 into a central dense overcast,[1] and the next day attained peak winds of 85 km/h (55 mph), according to the MFR.

On April 5, Marlene was downgraded into a severe tropical storm and subsequently drifted to the northwest, influenced by a ridge behind the trough.

[23] Subsequently, increased wind shear dissipated the convection as the rapidly weakening depression passed north of Madagascar.

That day, the Meteorological Service of Madagascar named the system Eliceca, but the depression quickly moved inland and dissipated.

Due to the threat to Rodrigues, the Mauritius Meteorological Service named the depression Lidy on March 15, although wind shear in the region prevented further strengthening.
