Monsoon Update I bet you thought the monsoon was over, but we normally get 3 pulses, in fact this technically is the 4th. But this one swung around a month earlier, although in reality it didn't swing around, it just never left. This season the monsoon pulse has been strong with us, here in Australia. Although we are still under the average for the country.

TC Paul has reached Cat 2 and is expected to weaken tomorrow into a Cat 1 as it circles from moving SE to NW. It was expected to be travelling NW today but hasn't done so.

Current conditions show moderate vertical wind shear (15-20 knots), warm sea surface temperatures (29-30°C), and moderate eastward outflow, with dry air entrainment affecting the system. Initial analysis indicates high confidence in position and moderate confidence in intensity and wind radii. Tropical Cyclone 22P is expected to slow and turn southeastward in the next 12 hours before accelerating west-northwestward due to a developing high-pressure ridge, ultimately weakening rapidly and dissipating within 48 hours due to dry air and increasing wind shear. Model guidance supports this forecast, with some uncertainty in short-term track due to erratic motion.

National

Expect showers and storms to impact the northern tropics and the southern and inland regions of WA due to moist and unstable winds. Coastal showers along the eastern seaboard, southern Vic, and SA will be driven by an onshore flow. TAS will experience showers from an approaching front, while high pressure systems will maintain dry conditions elsewhere.
