It’s Nearly 3rd week into December 2020 and no cyclone as yet in our region. ACCESS g was on board for one of the NW coast but has changed mind. Now going for a tropical low on the NT coast as a dumb bell style low down the WA coast. Moisture to spread inland and water eastward toward Qld and NSW Anyway that’s the current prognosis Anyway. Hi to al you weather nerds keeping this forum alive on ICU. I give yes all a medal!🙋♂️ Edited by user Friday, 18 December 2020 3:32:37 PM(UTC)

The tropical low on the north WA coast deepening on the mainland into Monday and Tuesday
Should see some stronger convection and cloud banding
Inland Nth WA and NT should get some rain from this .

Just an observation from the ACCESS g surface synoptic.
Mid latitude high pressure cells centred very low(southward) this week. No idea how long that’s been going on or for how long it will go on.
This pattern makes strong cyclogenesis harder even with MJo or cross equatorial available as the northern flank of a strong high supports the southern flank of a forming TC.
However ACCESS g showing some heavy falls over inland parts of Qld on Friday,Christmas Day from a tropical dip in isobars troughing

I went over to Bribie Island today and the sea is like a bath and easily;y 26 degrees down here.
The sea surface temperature won't be an issue this year!

The cross equatorial is quite weak in the Australian jurisdiction currently. However quite organised in the mid Indian Ocean.

ABC weather newsman touting a possible TC up around the gulf.
Had a look a Access wind streams greater Asia and all l can see us a sloppy monsoon trough at the top end to the gulf , A small rotation in the gulf perhaps but no strong cross equatorial NW flow and lacking organised high pressure to support a southern flank.
Doesnt mean it won’t rain . Tropical lows and storms
Some hint at a strong wet in inland tropical low for internal Qld later in the week.

I am not familiar with most weather stations up north This is BOM rainfall totals for the past week in table format, for up north QLD One we all should know is Hamilton island. They have had some spin off from this low l think They have had 277mm in the past week . http://www.bom.gov.au/cl...l/station-rainfall.shtmlACCESS g is showing some places in Qld to get a dumping but from troughing with lots of moisture probably from ex Imogen http://www.bom.gov.au/au...harts/viewer/index.shtmlLook forward to seeing the totals in the central and nth qld threads. The locals must be excited at the wet stuff finally.🥰

While Imogen died a rather quick death the effects of the convergence is indeed being felt down as far as the Mackay region. We've had some hefty totals along the coast and plenty of folk stranded. Have seen ECMWF is touting a possible low around the 26th Jan. Maybe our season is going to kick in. https://www.tropicaltidb...me=2021011000&fh=384
