Monsoon update

98S has become TC Anggrek, just SW of Jakarta Indonesia. And 99S looks to just remain over land for now and won't deepen into a cyclone just yet. It is still dropping a lot of rain over the top end.


A new low deepening in the Coral Sea is expected to shift away from the QLD coast for several days as the next High moves into play around the 21st. However the next High will be pushed over NZ, have less effect than the one on Jasper and produce less ridging. The system is already further South than Jasper when it developed into a Cyclone and over warmer waters. Add that altogether and initially, it sounds like a more southern crossing than Jasper. That is about all we can say right now.


The main difference is that the amount of warm humid air making it to ex 99S is far greater than the new low in the Coral Sea. so it doesn't have the same feed as Jasper did.

State

The monsoon trough will persist for days across the Gulf of Carpentaria, Cape York Peninsula, and the western Coral Sea. A weak tropical low on the trough in the western Coral Sea will move east with uncertain movement from early next week. There is a high-pressure ridge over central and southern Queensland, maintained by a high in the Tasman Sea. The ridge will weaken by Wednesday as the high drifts east. A trough will enter southwestern Queensland on Wednesday, moving east across southern Queensland from Thursday to Friday and weakening over the weekend.
