Descrição
Severe Weather Warning
for DAMAGING WINDS and HEAVY RAINFALL
For people in #Maranoa and #Warrego and parts of Central Highlands and Coalfields, Central West and Channel Country Forecast Districts.
Issued at 4:56 am Saturday, 22 February 2020. http://www.bom.gov.au/products/IDQ21037.shtml
Weather Situation: An upper low will enter the far southwest of the state on Saturday, deepening a surface trough over the Maranoa and Warrego district. These two systems will trigger showers and thunderstorms with heavy falls developing.
HEAVY RAINFALL and DAMAGING WINDS will develop on Saturday over the Maranoa and Warrego district, extending to adjacent parts of the Central Highlands and Coalfields, Central West and the Channel Country.
Heavy rain, which may lead to flash flooding, is expected to develop across the warning area from Saturday morning into Sunday. 6-hourly rainfall totals of 50 to 100mm are likely, with locally heavier falls possible with thunderstorms.
Damaging winds, with gusts greater than 90 km/h, are a lesser threat but still possible with any organised thunderstorm activity in the warning area.
Flood Watches and Warnings are also current for this region with a Flood Watch for southern inland catchments between #Thargomindah and St George issued for this event - please refer to http://www.bom.gov.au/qld/warnings/
Locations which may be affected include #Charleville, Cunnamulla, St George, #Quilpie, Isisford, Tambo, #Blackall and Carnarvon National Park.
Initial Flood Watch for the north west Gulf between the Qld/NT border and Karumba.
Issued at 1:34 pm EST on Friday 21 February 2020
Flood Watch Number: 1
Flooding is possible early next week associated with the track of the tropical low in the Gulf of Carpentaria.
The tropical low in the Gulf of Carpentaria is forecast to strengthen into a tropical cyclone during the weekend and move south-southwest towards the Qld/NT border area over the weekend and into next week.
Showers and storms have been recorded in the Flood Watch area over the past week. Heavy rainfall is expected to start on Monday and continue through to Tuesday.
Localised flooding and travel disruption is expected during next week. Minor riverine flooding is also possible.
Catchments likely to be affected include:
Settlement Creek
Nicholson River
Leichhardt River
Lower Flinders River
Areas affected:
Warning zone: None.
Watch zone: Karumba (Qld) to Nhulunbuy (NT), including Mornington Island, Borroloola, Wollogorang, and Groote Eylandt.
Cancelled zones: None.
Details of Tropical Low at 4:00 am AEST:
Intensity: tropical low, sustained winds near the centre of 35 kilometres per hour with wind gusts to 85 kilometres per hour.
Location: within 110 kilometres of 13.4 degrees South, 139.2 degrees East , 365 kilometres north of Mornington Island and 295 kilometres east northeast of Groote Eylandt .
Movement: slow moving .
The tropical low situated over central parts of the Gulf of Carpentaria is rated a high chance of forming into a tropical cyclone on Sunday. The system is expected to remain slow-moving during today before adopting a south-southwesterly track towards the southern Gulf of Carpentaria coast on Sunday. At this stage, the system is forecast to intensify into a category 2 tropical cyclone prior to making landfall about the southern Gulf of Carpentaria coast on Monday.
Hazards:
GALES could potentially develop about coastal and nearby adjacent inland communities between Nhulunbuy and Karumba, including Mornington Island, Borroloola Wollogorang and Groote Eylandt during Sunday or early Monday. DESTRUCTIVE WINDS with gusts in excess of 125km/h are possible between about Borroloola and Mornington Island, including Centre Island on Monday, depending on the future track of the system.
ABNORMALLY HIGH TIDES are expected to develop about the Gulf of Carpentaria coast over the next couple of days. Large waves may produce at least MINOR FLOODING along low-lying coastal areas. People living in areas likely to be affected by this flooding should take measures to protect their property as much as possible and be prepared to help their neighbours.
HEAVY RAIN with the potential to cause flash flooding is expected in areas around the Gulf of Carpentaria over the coming days. Flood Watches are current for Gulf of Carpentaria catchments.
Please Note. More updates to come.
