TROPICAL CYCLONE ADVICE NUMBER 9
Issued by the Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane
Issued at 4:49am EST on Sunday the 30th of January 2011
A Cyclone WARNING continues for coastal and island communities from Lucinda to
Proserpine.
A Cyclone WATCH continues for coastal and island communities from Innisfail to
Lucinda and Proserpine to Saint Lawrence.
At 4:00 am EST Tropical Cyclone Anthony, Category 1 was estimated to be
600 kilometres east northeast of Townsville and 510 kilometres northeast of
Bowen.
Tropical Cyclone Anthony is currently moving southwest and is expected to
continue moving in this direction. It may slightly intensify as it approaches
the Queensland coast.
DESTRUCTIVE WIND GUSTS are expected to develop about coastal and island
communities close to the cyclone centre as it approaches the coast early Monday
morning.
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS are expected to develop about coastal and island communities
between Lucinda and Proserpine late today.
As the cyclone crosses/approaches the coast abnormally high tides are expected
between Townsville and Bowen. Large waves are likely along the beachfront.
HEAVY RAINFALL with LOCAL FLOODING is expected to develop about the coast and
adjacent inland near and to the south of the cyclone, extending as far south as
Sarina, as it approaches and crosses the coast overnight Sunday.
People between Lucinda and Proserpine should immediately commence or continue
preparations, especially securing boats and property.
- For cyclone preparedness and safety advice, visit Queensland's Disaster
Management Services website [www.disaster.qld.gov.au]

MB AT 29/19Z. A 291448Z AMSR-E INDICATES A STRENGTHENING LLCC WITH
IMPROVED AND TIGHTER CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING INTO THE CENTER.
THE TOTAL PRECIPITABLE WATER PRODUCT INDICATES THAT DEEP MOISTURE
VALUES ARE INCREASING AS THE SYSTEM CONSOLIDATES AND MAINTAINS
CENTRAL CONVECTION WITH VALUES THAT ARE MORE CONDUCIVE TO
DEVELOPMENT. POLEWARD OUTFLOW HAS ALSO IMPROVED, ENHANCED BY AN
UPPER-LOW NEAR 27S 164E AND ANOTHER DEVELOPING UPPER-LOW NEAR 20S
143E. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30

SHOWS TIGHTLY-CURVED BANDING ASSOCIATED WITH A VERY WELL-DEFINED
CENTER; THE LLCC RECENTLY TRACKED OVER LIHOU REEF, WHICH REPORTED
SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS AS HIGH AS 27 KNOTS AND MINIMUM SLP OF 988
MB AT 29/19Z. A 291448Z AMSR-E INDICATES A STRENGTHENING LLCC WITH
IMPROVED AND TIGHTER CONVECTIVE BANDING WRAPPING INTO THE CENTER.
THE TOTAL PRECIPITABLE WATER PRODUCT INDICATES THAT DEEP MOISTURE
VALUES ARE INCREASING AS THE SYSTEM CONSOLIDATES AND MAINTAINS
CENTRAL CONVECTION WITH VALUES THAT ARE MORE CONDUCIVE TO
DEVELOPMENT. POLEWARD OUTFLOW HAS ALSO IMPROVED, ENHANCED BY AN
UPPER-LOW NEAR 27S 164E AND ANOTHER DEVELOPING UPPER-LOW NEAR 20S
143E. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED SURFACE WINDS ARE ESTIMATED AT 25 TO 30
KNOTS. MINIMUM SEA LEVEL PRESSURE IS ESTIMATED TO BE NEAR 988 MB.
THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE
WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS GOOD.
