Monsoon Update

Ex TC Lincoln continues to move West and the alignment of the models is only close 3 days out. Which puts it out over water, and could be very weak to a small intense little system. Often these types of systems pause over the coast and could fail to move into the water completely.


National

Rain, storms, and showers persist across the tropics, heaviest in the northwest due to ex Tropical Cyclone Lincoln. Showers and storms across eastern Australia aided by humid easterlies. High-pressure ridge keeps elsewhere settled while directing hot winds to WA and SA.
