TROPICAL CYCLONE OUTLOOK
FOR THE AREA BETWEEN LONGITUDES 125 EAST - 142 EAST
Issued by the BUREAU OF METEOROLOGY, DARWIN
at 2:15 pm CST Saturday 9 February 2008
A weak tropical low is located in the GULF OF CARPENTARIA to the east of Groote
Eylandt. The low is expected to move southeast and may develop in the short term
but is expected to move over land by Monday. Increasing showers and storms over
the Top End and northern waters is due to a developing northwest monsoonal flow.
The potential for development into a Tropical Cyclone over the next
few days is estimated to be:
Saturday: low,
Sunday: low,
Monday: low.
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.
