The BoM's morning forecast also has it moving east in the short term, however JWTC already has it with westward movement (3Kts), which , in my understanding is, the earlier the westward movement, the higher latitude it could possibly make landfall along the coast.

Yeah lots to watch over he next few days.
Daintree drizzle has returned this arvo, this will slow the drying of the spare room floor I just painted
but Its warm enough that it will dry with the fan up high.

Yeah, I was supposed to put the final coats of clear on my new bar top today, but too risky with this drishizzle and humidity.

Thanks for that info Ron, much appreciated. Looking at those spaghetti maps it is easy to see how they get themselves confused.

The weather has lifted here a bit this afternoon. 11mm so far today.

Managed to end up with 62mm in the gauge this morning.
Floor feels dry so will whack a second coat on it soon. Yeah don't think I'd be putting clear on any timber in this weather.

Another day or so of waiting by the looks of things. I need to go to mareeba & Cairns this week but am not sure what day I should tackle it all.

Good morning everyone.

A monstrous 2mm.....

Invest 90P looks big on the water vapour map
https://tropic.ssec.wisc...p;prod=wvbbm&sat=gms

Windy has it crossing now at Bowen on Thursday evening.

Ventusky has it crossing just south of Ayr on Thursday morning.

Isn't modelling fun...😁

Edit: A 6.1 magnitude quake in the Northern Marianas has prompted a marine warning for Australia, even with a depth of 197km.

Things much the same here this morning. No rain overnight so still 11mm from yesterday in the gauge and GFS is still sticking to a Townsville crossing. Might get the yard mowed if this keeps up.

YTD: 600.5mm

This is the first dry morning we have had in a while..very hot and humid though.

Looking at all the models there already seems to be a concensus of a severe Cyclone crossing thursday/friday between Townsville and Airlie beach...

It will be interesting to see if BOM falls in line with that tomorrow as it actually is named...

Do you guys reckon its too early to call a crossing like that with such a degree of accuracy..?..If so I'm feeling a bit better then I did yesterday...

I see some forecasts for 38c by the weekend which i guess is expected if we are on the north side of the spinner..

Thanks Scott, looks like it could be a bit more severe this one. I hope the track doesn't follow Jasper and do a northward match.

I think I started looking around when Windy starting using the watermark.

Yes SM, Lets hope it stays south of Townsville....imagine just the environmental damage on top of Jasper and the saturated soil as well if it comes ashore near Cairns..and i think after the last event it would be pretty devestating for a lot of people, farmers and businesses..

I'm still a bit anxious though as its early days and wont take much of a turn to send it straight into Tully/innisfail area and its been 12 years since the last big one here ..

I found it and it’s quite good, you can choose which model you want if you go into settings and turn “model switcher” on

A bit boring down in the SEQ and NE NSW by myself. BigGrin . From what I am reading I hope you don’t get too much more rain.

However this is the latest offering by BoM on Meteye regarding Tropical Low 05U. BoM are now going for a possible Townsville or thereabouts crossing and by the looks, as some models have suggested, a southerly track path. Unfortunately you can’t go forward to see the possible/predicted path or strength. It is only available for the time presented.
