Heavy falls are occurring over northwest QLD. A slow moving tropical low lies over the Gulf Country with an associated trough aligned across the Herbert and Lower Burdekin to the northern Coral Sea. A warm and humid west to northwesterly flow persists to the north of this trough. Areas of showers and thunderstorms are evident near a trough through western QLD, northeastern SA to northern NSW. Isolated thunderstorms are also active about the Kimberley coast and eastern Pilbara. A high pressure system in the Bight is maintaining mostly clear skies over much of southern Australia.
