TROPICAL CYCLONE OUTLOOK
FOR THE AREA BETWEEN LONGITUDES 125 EAST - 142 EAST
Issued by the BUREAU OF METEOROLOGY, DARWIN
at 4:55 am CST Thursday 3 January 2008
An active monsoon trough lies across the Top End with a low about 260 kilometres
southwest of Darwin. The low is expected to remain slow moving for a day or so
before moving eastward into the Gulf of Carpentaria during Friday or Saturday.
The potential for development into a Tropical Cyclone over the next three days
is estimated to be:
Thursday: Low
Friday: Moderate
Saturday: High
NOTE: Development Potential is an estimate of the probability of tropical
cyclone development for each day... Low = 10% or less, Moderate = 20% - 40%,
High = 50% or more.
