Special report

Monsoon:

Tropical Cyclone 03P (Jasper) is approaching the QLD coast now. The BOM has a warning zone, and a more specific region destructive winds and very destructive winds zone. At this point cylones can make last minute alterations and so its just safe to presume that the orange warning zone is where you should expect possible destructive winds or storm surge.


Storms:

Tropical Cyclone Jasper is expected to impact the north QLD coast, bringing intense rain, winds, large waves, and storm surge. Troughs will trigger showers and storms in the northern tropics, western QLD, NSW, VIC, and TAS, with some being intense.

Troughs will draw heat to the east and southeast.
