Monsoon Update
TC Lincoln formed but will be short lived as it heads South over land shortly. Tropical Cyclone 14P (Lincoln) is currently around 423 nautical miles east-southeast of Darwin, Australia. In the last six hours, it moved south-southwest at a speed of 08 knots and has accelerated, making landfall. The system's position is confidently determined from radar observations, and its intensity is estimated from nearby surface wind reports, including one from Centre Island, 33 nautical miles northwest. The cyclone is expected to continue southwestward, moving further inland, and interactions with land are likely to lead to its dissipation within the next 12 hours.
National
A monsoon low is bringing heavy rain, storms, and gusty winds from NW QLD across the NT interior. Showers and storms are expected in the northern tropics, as well as parts of QLD, NSW, and eastern VIC due to humid winds. High-pressure systems will keep much of the remaining areas dry. Easterly winds in WA are dry and hot.

State
Monsoon trough over Gulf of Carpentaria & western Peninsula with Cyclone Lincoln. Cyclone will move to Northern Territory, then westward over the weekend, weakening the trough over QLD. Weak trough in western QLD will bring unsettled conditions, but will move out later. Ridge over eastern & southern QLD will strengthen as new high pressure system approaches Tasman Sea. Weak upper trough in south will increase rainfall along east coast, but settled conditions returning to southern QLD over the weekend as trough moves offshore.
