A late cyclone, heavy rain and flooding across the #TopEnd remind us how important weather forecasts and warnings are.
This #WorldMetDay we recognise the global meteorological community whose observations and forecasts help protect lives and communities.
Severe TC #Narelle is about to make landfall in NE #NorthernTerritory then crosses the #TopEnd before entering the Joseph Bonaparte Gulf Mon, local time. The storm should move off the Kimberley coast of #WA Tues, then can hook S to some rain & wind to #Perth next weekend.
TL 28U and 30U are starting to rotate around each other off #WesternAustralia. TL 29U will reach northeast #Queensland Thursday night or Friday morning with heavy rain & flooding in northern Queensland into the weekend. Another low continues to bring heavy rain to the #TopEnd.
A short walk, a cool plunge, and the sound of water cutting through the heat. Simple, refreshing, and quietly memorable.
åNo regrets.

Old mine sites, railway history, and a pub that’s seen more than its share of stories, all tucked into the edge of the Top End.
A short stop with a long memory.

Katherine has a way of sitting right in the middle of things. History, hot springs, river country and everyday Top End life.
It’s not flashy, but it quietly holds everything together.

A low pressure system near the #TopEnd coast can intensify once it moves over the #TimorSea & can become a cyclone offshore early next week. Also watching for tropical development in the Gulf of Carpentaria or Coral Sea next week.
Former #Hayley will continue to produce areas of heavy rain in the #Kimberley region & #TopEnd into Thursday. A slow-moving low will bring more heavy rain to northern #Queensland into Thursday.
A slow-moving low near the #TopEnd will continue to bring areas of heavy rain to northern #NorthernTerritory through Saturday. Heavy rain is likely in northern #Queensland through Tuesday. Watch for flooding.
TC #Bakung remains WNW of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands with TL 03U off northwest #Australia which should pass S of #Christmas Island this weekend. TL 07U is in the Arafura Sea & can move south & bring heavier rain to the #TopEnd late this week or weekend.
TC #Bakung remains NW of the Cocos (Keeling) Islands & will turn back to the east and weaken. Bakung will be no threat to land. Also, monitoring TL 03U off NW #Australia and TL 07U off the #TopEnd.
Tropical Cyclone #Fina is starting its turn to the south & is expected to make landfall along the #TopEnd coast Friday night or Saturday, CAST. TC #Ines holds the record for the earliest landfalling cyclone in Australia with landfall 21 Nov, 1973.
Tropical Cyclone #Fina has formed in northern #Australia and is forecast to make landfall in the #TopEnd on Saturday, local time. This would make Fina the second earliest landfalling cyclone in Australia since the satellite era began in 1970. TC Ines in 1973 is the earliest.
Tropical low 02U in the Timor Sea will gradually strengthen & can become a cyclone later this week. Regardless, areas of heavy rain are likely across #Australia's #TopEnd much of this week.
Monitoring a tropical cyclone forming in the Timor Sea next week with a high chance of heavy rain across #Australia's #TopEnd.

Been a little quiet in terms of #storms across the NW #TopEnd over the past week or so, though we did see a weakish shelf cloud tracking in over the #Darwin area late this afternoon.
A transition to westerly flow in the coming days may promote an increase in coastal storm activity 🌩️
