Forecast for the rest of Thursday Partly cloudy. Scattered showers, more frequent near the coast. Isolated thunderstorms. Winds easterly 15 to 25 km/h. Daytime maximum temperatures around 30. Fire Danger - High UV Alert from 7:50 am to 4:10 pm, UV Index predicted to reach 14 [Extreme] Bundaberg – 30 Showers and chance of a storm. Gympie – 31 Shower or two. Hervey Bay – 30 A few showers. Kingaroy – 31 Shower or two. Maryborough – 30 A few showers. Gayndah – 33 Showers and chance of a storm. Weather Situation A monsoon trough extends from a low over the far northern parts of Western Australia, through Gulf of Carpentaria waters, and then to a developing low near the Solomon Islands. The low near the Solomon Islands has some possibility of developing into a tropical cyclone during the forecast period but is expected to move in a general southwards direction, remaining well offshore of the east Queensland coast. A high over the Tasman Sea extends a firm ridge along the east Queensland coast. The high should weaken late in the week, relaxing the ridge. A weak upper level low will move slowly westwards from the Coral Sea into the Capricornia district today and then become slow moving.
