Good Afternoon Folks........ A Cloudy morning to start with even a very slight sprinkle of wet stuff this morning as I traveled the Ring Road which I must say I actually thought a bird sprayed me as it flew by lol.... With the humidity quite high at 71% it certianly made the 32C feel a whole lot warmer. Currently its still quite warm at 29.3C with a feel like temp of 33.6C. Below is your forecast for tomorrow........................................... ____________________________________________________ Official Forecast for Wednesday 19th of November 2014 for Gladstone to Cooktown and west to Mt Isa. ____________________________________________________ Weather Situation A broad area of low pressure will persist through the interior of the state during the forecast period, maintaining hot conditions through northern and central inland parts. The hot conditions will then extend south through the southern inland late in the weak as a new surface trough enters the southwest of the state. A weak ridge along the east Queensland coast will be reinforced on Wednesday as a new high enters the Tasman Sea. A series of weak upper level troughs will move through central and southern Queensland during the next few days. Forecast for the rest of Tuesday Showers and storms through the Wide Bay and Burnett, Sunshine Coast and southern central interior with some storms possibly severe. Possible showers and drizzle areas developing through the remaining southeast east of the ranges with just the slight chance of storms. Possible light showers developing near the east tropical coast. Some storms in the northwest, clearing this evening. Partly cloudy in the southwest though with no rainfall. Fine and mostly clear elsewhere. Moderate to fresh southerly winds in the west tending, tending southeast to northeast elsewhere. Wednesday 19 November Mostly cloudy over the southeast and southern central interior on and east of the ranges with showers and drizzle areas. Storms are also likely and some of them are expected to be severe. A slight to medium chance of showers and storms over the remaining central and southeast interior and through the northwest. The slight chance of showers near tropical coast. Fine and mostly sunny elsewhere. A hot day over much of the interior, particularly the central west and north west. Moderate to fresh southeast to northeasterly winds. Fire Danger - Very High over the central interior and north tropical inland. Thursday 20 November The high should move further east through the Tasman Sea. A surface trough will remain slow moving from the northwest through to the southern interior, while a new surface trough will approach the southwestern border late in the day. The upper trough will gradually contract east into the Coral Sea, though the surface trough will still trigger showers and storms through the southeast and southern interior east of about Charleville and the northwest of the state. Hot conditions are expected through western Queensland and the central interior. Friday 21 November The new trough should enter the southwest of the state, with hot to very hot conditions extending through western Queensland, the central interior and into the southeast inland. The trough will result in the slight to medium chance of showers and storms developing from the northwest of the state through the central interior and into the southeast, with a higher chance through the southeast interior where the airmass is a little more moist. The onshore flow through the tropics will result in the slight chance of showers near the coast. Saturday 22 November Hot to very hot conditions will persist through western Queensland and the central and southeast inland as the surface trough remains slow moving in the far west of the state. The trough will continue to trigger showers and storms from the northwest of the state through central and southern parts, though storms will most likely remain inland. The tropics will remain mostly fine with just the slight chance of showers near the coast. _____________________________________________________ Forecast for the North Tropical Coast and Tablelands - Mostly sunny.
