TROPICAL LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM – CORAL SEA
Forecast for QLD - Wednesday 29th January, 2014
Andy Barber: The Early Warning Network

A Tropical Cyclone Advice was issued by the Bureau of Meteorology this afternoon for the tropical low deepening in the Coral Sea. The system is expected to track in a south-westward direction towards the northern Queensland coast tomorrow while deepening over the next 24 hours. As a result heavy rainfall and gusty winds could be expected for parts of the Peninsula Coast, Cooktown Coast, Cairns Coast and Townsville Coasts.

Wind gusts to 35 knots (64kmh) could be expected along exposed coasts during the day and into the evening. Rainfall between 50mm-90mm could be received tomorrow, especially for extreme coastal regions of northern Queensland.

The majority of the state will be under the influence of cooler southwesterly winds with the Brisbane CBD expected to reach a maximum of 28°. Isolated onshore showers are expected about the southern coast with mostly cloudy conditions. Temperatures are expected to be warm for parts of the Central West, Warrego and Maranoa, and Channel Country, expecting to reach between 34°-38°.
