Note
Fire Weather District Ratings are provided in conjunction with Fire Authorities. District FBI (Fire Behaviour Index) is the representative peak FBI in the district. 10% of the Fire Weather District has a max FBI higher than this value. When the table is expanded the forecast elements in the expanded rows apply to the relevant Sub Area rather than district. Red cells indicate the value exceeds the weather alert threshold. For c-Haines this is the 95th percentile climatological value, for WCDI this is a value over 40, for Minor Fuel Type Rating this indicates Extreme or higher whilst the district rating is less than Extreme.
Tuesday
A slight to medium chance of showers in the northern Arnhem District. The chance of morning fog in the eastern Carpentaria and eastern Arnhem Districts. Mostly sunny elsewhere. Cooler across southern districts, with patchy morning frost in the northeast Lasseter and western Simpson Districts. Light to moderate southwest to southeasterly winds, fresh and gusty in the Barkly, Tanami and eastern Simpson Districts during the day.
