BoM releases season's first cyclone warning
The season’s first potential tropical cyclone is developing in the Arafura Sea and by late tonight is expected to develop into a Category 1 cyclone that might later make landfall in the Wyndham-Prince Regent River area.
Early season cyclones play a part in predicting activity for the rest of the season therefore even if they cause little damage are of interest to forecasters.
All catastrophe arrangements are in place for this potential cyclone including representation from the Insurance Council. |
