Storms and tropical low special report
Storms mainly throughout the NT and NW WA along the trough. A slow moving High over the Tasman is still pushing NE winds via a ridge along the QLD coast, so some residual showers for the NQ coast.
The new low East of the Solomon Islands and North of Vanuatu is now strengthening, this is expected to deepen as a tropical low over the next week as it drifts South, possibly SE then SW. The High over the Tasman will dictate that, depending on how slow it moves away from the Tasman to the East.
National
A slow-moving weather system will move to the western part of the state, bringing showers and thunderstorms. Meanwhile, a high-pressure system over the Tasman Sea will continue to affect the eastern coast, and there might be a new weather system in far southwest Queensland by the weekend, which could affect the southern and southeastern inland areas early next week.
State
Expect isolated showers in the eastern region, south of Cooktown, with the potential for scattered showers and thunderstorms in western and interior Queensland, while other areas will be partly cloudy with light to moderate winds from the southeast to the northeast.
