[25], On 6 December 2020, the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) reported that a tropical low had developed within a monsoon trough near the western end of Java, approximately 200 km (125 mi) north-northeast of Christmas Island. To have your suggestion considered please submit a written request (including pronunciation of the name) to: Manager Tropical Cyclone and Extreme Weather Bureau of Meteorology GPO Box 1289 Melbourne VIC 3001. [54] The system moved inland over the following days, tracking in a generally south-southeasterly direction. [4], The Eastern region encompasses the area east of 142.5°E and west of 160°E. The 2005–06 Australian region cyclone season was an above average tropical cyclone season. [55][56], The tropical low and associated thunderstorms generated strong winds in coastal and inland areas of the Kimberley and Pilbara regions as it tracked through the area, including sustained winds near gale force at several offshore sites. It officially started on 1 November 1988, and officially ended on 30 April 1989. Ahead of the cyclone season, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM), the New Zealand National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA)and various other Pacific Meteorological services, all contributed towards the Island Climate Update tropical cyclone outlook that was released during October 2019. The BOM predicted that the La Niña pattern will persist into early 2021, and waters north of Australia and the Southwestern Pacific Ocean will be warmer than average in the coming three months. The 1973–74 Australian region cyclone season was the third most active tropical cyclone season in the Australian Region. [10][11], Deep convection persisted over the system as the tropical low tracked gradually southwards over the following days, and by early 27 November, a curved convective rainband had developed on the eastern side. [74][75][76][77], During mid December, favourable conditions from a pulse of the Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) located over the eastern Maritime Continent contributed to the re-formation of the monsoon trough over northern Australia. [6][7] On 24 November, the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) reported that a tropical low had developed within a trough in the far northwestern corner of the Australian region, located approximately 860 km (535 mi) northwest of the Cocos Islands. With wind gusts of almost 300km/h, it destroyed about 350 homes and damaged almost 2000 properties in and around Yeppoon and Rockhampton. Environmental conditions remained only marginally favourable for development, however, and the system's deep convection became displaced to the southwest of the centre due to northeasterly vertical wind shear, leaving the low-level circulation centre fully exposed. Within the North Atlantic Ocean, tropical or subtropical cyclones are named by the National Hurricane Center (NHC/RSMC Miami) when they are judged to have intensified into a tropical storm with winds of at least 34 kn (39 mph; 63 km/h). The 1972–73 Australian region cyclone season was an above-average tropical cyclone season, in terms of activity. [3], The Australian region is currently defined as being between 90°E and 160°E and is monitored by five different warning centres during the season that runs from 1 November to 30 April. [80] Environmental conditions were favourable for tropical cyclogenesis, with low to moderate vertical wind shear, good upper-level outflow and very warm sea surface temperatures nearing 31 °C (88 °F). [34][35] The interaction with an upper-level trough enhanced the tropical low's poleward outflow channel, allowing deep convection to rebuild over the centre of the system. The next day, it intensified into Tropical Cyclone Billy. It reached Category 2 later that day and began to weaken. [79] The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) classified the system as a tropical low by 06:00 UTC the following day while it was located near the Tiwi Islands, and assigned the identifier code 03U. 1973–74 Australian region cyclone season; Season summary map. In Western Australia in particular, the lack of population centers, shipping lanes, radars, and offshore stations meant that storms were tracked infrequently. [37][38], Tropical Low 02U made landfall between Port Hedland and Whim Creek on the Pilbara coastline just after 03:00 UTC on 11 December. [4] The region covers the Timor Sea, the Banda Sea, the Arafura Sea and the Gulf of Carpentaria. The season was the first to feature multiple cyclones of Category 5 intensity since 2013-14, with Imogen, Seroja and Marian all reaching this intensity. [93], On 20 December 2020, a tropical disturbance that was being monitored by Météo-France's tropical cyclone warning centre in Réunion crossed into the Australian region from the South-West Indian Ocean basin. Should a tropical depression reach tropical cyclone strength within TCWC Jakarta's area of responsibility, it will be assigned the next name from the following list:[96][97]. [47][49], As the tropical low tracked southeastwards towards the coast, environmental conditions continued to improve, with sea surface tempertaures nearing 31 °C (88 °F) and the system maintaining a robust poleward outflow channel in the upper troposphere. Most visited articles. The agency predicted a 66% chance of above average activity for the region as a whole, compared with the average of 11 tropical cyclones. [4] The sub-region covers waters off Western Australia north of Shark Bay, and extends westward to Christmas Island. Language; Watch; Edit (Redirected from Cyclone Lisa (1966)) The following is a list of Australian region tropical cyclones in or before 1940. The 2022–23 Australian Region Cyclone Season is the period of the year when most tropical cyclones form within the Southern Indian Ocean and Pacific Oceans between 90°E and 160°E. April 2014.Der operative Plan der World Meteorological Organization sieht für die Gewässer auf der Südhalbkugel zusätzlich ein „tropisches Zyklonjahr“ vor. [1] Within the Southern Hemisphere there are officially three areas where tropical cyclones develop on a regular basis, these areas are the South-West Indian Ocean between Africa and 90°E, the Australian region between 90°E and 160°E and the South Pacific basin between 160°E and 120°W. It began on 1 November 1998 and ended on 30 April 1999. Cyclone Marcia intensified from a category 2 to a category 5 just before crossing the Queensland coast north of Rockhampton in February 2015. However, as three of the offices are run by the Australian national weather service, only 3 lists of names are operated. An Australian region tropical cyclone is a non-frontal, low pressure system that has developed, within an environment of warm sea surface temperatures and little vertical wind shear aloft in either the Southern Indian Ocean or the South Pacific Ocean. The season officially began on 1 November 2020 and will end on 30 April 2021, however, a tropical cyclone could form at any time between 1 July 2020 and 30 June 2021 and would count towards the season total. Juni 2014. [2], In the early history of tropical cyclones in the Australian region, the only evidence of a storm was based on ship reports and observations from land. During the season, tropical cyclones will be officially monitored by one of the three tropical cyclone warning centres (TCWCs) for the region which are operated by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, National Weather Service of Papua New Guinea and the Indonesian Agency for Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics. [12] Despite this, the system remained mostly disorganised in the marginal environment, with an elongated low-level circulation centre. Number of tropical lows and tropical cyclones excludes Tropical Cyclone Raquel, which was considered to have been a part of the 2014-15 year. The system was last mentioned as a tropical low by the BOM on 11 December while located in central Western Australia. [23] Maximum 10-minute sustained winds of 39 km/h (24 mph) with gusts to 46 km/h (29 mph) were observed at the airport on West Island at 04:30 UTC on 27 November. Tropical Cyclone Harry Harry formed on 15 December near the Sunda Strait, and moved west-southwest through its existence. Juli 2013 und endete am 30. [28] After tracking in a clockwise path around the northeastern side of Christmas Island, Tropical Low 02U became quasi-stationary on 8 December. Register Military. Australian region tropical cyclone seasons The 2020–21 Australian region cyclone season was a near average season that saw the formation of 11 tropical cyclones, five of which became severe tropical cyclones. Australien (amtlicher deutscher Name; englisch Commonwealth of Australia, deutsch veraltet Australischer Bund) ist ein Staat auf der Südhalbkugel der Erde, der die gesamte Landmasse des australischen Kontinents, die ihr südlich vorgelagerte Insel Tasmanien, die subantarktische Macquarieinsel mit ihren Nebeninseln und als Außengebiete die pazifische Norfolkinsel, die … Despite tracking over land, the tropical low showed signs of organisation, with the generally favourable atmospheric conditions allowing the development of formative convective banding in the system's southern semicircle. Australian cyclone season in 2018 and 2019. [40][41] Ten-minute sustained winds also reached 63 km/h (39 mph) on Legendre Island at 00:00 UTC. Cyclone Lam was the strongest storm to strike Australia's Northern Territory since Cyclone Monica in 2006. [82] Despite this, the tropical low's close proximity to land hindered intensification, and only limited development occurred before the system made landfall on 19 December near the Cambridge Gulf, between Wyndham and Kalumburu. [4], The Western region encompasses the area east of 90°E and west of 125°E. Each tropical cyclone year within this basin starts on 1 July and runs throughout the year, encompassing the tropical cyclone season which runs from 1 November and lasts until 30 April each season. [6][7] The presence of the MJO brought an increase in tropical moisture to the atmospheric environment, as well as aiding the formation of Tropical Cyclone Alicia in the South-West Indian Ocean region in mid November. [53] The JTWC issued a tropical cyclone formation alert for the tropical low at 21:30 UTC, noting the presence of convective rainbands wrapping into the system, as well as persistent deep convection over the low-level circulation centre. [78] The combined influence of the MJO and the monsoonal conditions generated widespread cloudiness and rainfall across the Australian tropics, leading to an increased likelihood of tropical cyclone formation in the region. [1][2] The bureau also advised that cyclone kits include a supply of face masks and hand sanitisers, owing to the concurrent COVID-19 pandemic. Tropical cyclones are non-frontal, low pressure systems that develop, within an … [13] On 29 November, the tropical low began to be steered slowly towards the west-northwest on the northern side of the subtropical high pressure belt. [45] The weakening tropical low was last mentioned by the BOM at around 08:00 UTC on 12 December, while located in the southeastern corner of Western Australia. The season officially began on 1 November 2020 and concluded on 30 April 2021. The 1988–89 Australian region cyclone season was a slightly above average tropical cyclone season. [37] Sustained gale-force winds were observed at Bedout Island and Port Hedland around the time of landfall, peaking at 70 km/h (43 mph) at both locations. [85], The system continued towards the southwest over the ensuing hours, paralleling the coast of Western Australia. [24] A total of 23.6 mm (0.93 in) of rainfall was also recorded on 24–28 November. Since the start of the 2008–09 season, there has only been one list from which the Bureau of Meteorology has assigned names to tropical cyclones, despite still operating three separate tropical cyclone warning centres (TCWCs) in Perth, Darwin and Brisbane. [78] On 17 December, a low-pressure system developed within the monsoon trough, near the northern coast of the Top End, and began to move westwards. [80][81] The system soon assumed a southwestward track towards the Kimberley region. Individual cyclone reports These reports have mainly been compiled using original material produced soon after the cyclone … [28][29] On 7 December, warm sea surface temperatures and strong diffluence in the upper troposhphere fuelled the development of deep convection around the system's low-level circulation centre. [4], The Northern region encompasses the area east of 125°E and west of 142.5°E. On August 13 the storm was expected to re-intensify, but this never happened and the storm dissipated in the early hours of August 14. [1] The Northwestern sub-region had a probability of two tropical cyclones crossing the Western Australian coast, with a significant risk of at least one of these to be a severe tropical cyclone. Richard K. Donahue; Project maintenance. It was also the third season in a row to begin prior to the official commencement date of 1 November, in this instance with the development of Tropical Low Liua on 26 September 2018. Read the detailed post cyclone reports for Australian cyclones dating back to 1970. 10-minute sustained winds of at least 50 km/h (31 mph) persisted for approximately four hours on Adele Island late on 8 December (UTC), peaking at 56 km/h (35 mph) at 21:00 UTC, with a 76 km/h (47 mph) gust observed shortly thereafter. Below average sea surface temperatures in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean and atmospheric conditions indicated a La Niña pattern, and it was declared that a La Niña had emerged on 29 September 2020. [4] The region covers waters east of Torres Strait and includes the Coral Sea and the Tasman Sea. [19] Satellite scatterometer data revealed maximum sustained winds of approximately 45 km/h (30 mph) at 02:30 UTC on 30 November, a few hours prior to the system exiting the Australian region. [33] During this period, the JTWC reported that the tropical low's one-minute sustained winds had decreased to approximately 65 km/h (40 mph), from the earlier peak of 85 km/h (50 mph). The season officially ran from November 1, 2022 to April 30, 2023, however a tropical cyclone could form at any time between July 1, 2022 and June 30, 2023 and would count towards the season total. Add new page. The region averages four tropical cyclones in a season, and the bureau assesses the region to have a low level of accuracy when forecasting tropical cyclone activity. [32], Tropical Low 02U soon assumed a southeastward course, steered by the influence of a subtropical ridge situated to the east. Tropical cyclones that develop between the Equator and 11°S, between the longitudes 151°E and 160°E, are assigned names by the tropical cyclone warning centre in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea. An Australian region tropical cyclone is a non-frontal, low pressure system that has developed, within an environment of warm sea surface temperatures and little vertical wind shear aloft in either the Southern Indian Ocean or the South Pacific Ocean. The sub-region averages five tropical cyclones in a season, and the bureau assesses the sub-region to have a moderate level of accuracy when forecasting tropical cyclone activity. [43][46], The presence of the Madden–Julian Oscillation and an equatorial Rossby Wave in the Australian region contributed to the formation of another broad low-pressure system in the monsoon trough over the far eastern Indian Ocean during early December. Within the basin, most tropical cyclones have their origins within the South Pacific Convergence Zone or within the Northern Australian monsoon trough, both of which form an extensive area of cloudiness and are dominant features of the season. [5] The region also covers waters off Papua New Guinea and western parts of the Solomon Islands. Pre-empting dangerous coastal erosion, conservation volunteers worked hard to relocate the nests of loggerhead turtles higher up the beache… [42] Despite these wind readings, the BOM did not classify the low as a Category 1 tropical cyclone because they determined that gale-force winds did not extend more than halfway around the centre. The number of tropical cyclones in the Australian region is generally higher with La Niña. [14][15] The system encountered somewhat weaker wind shear along its new track, allowing deep convection to develop closer to the low-level circulation centre. Search This wiki This wiki All wikis | Sign In Don't have an account? [89][90], Tropical Low 03U generated strong winds in the Kimberley region and on nearby islands for several days while located nearby. [16] Before any significant intensification could occur, however, the tropical low exited the Australian region on 30 November, passing into the area of responsibility of Météo-France's tropical cyclone warning centre in Réunion. [10] The Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) assessed environmental conditions as being only marginally conducive for tropical cyclogenesis, with good poleward outflow and sea surface temperatures near 30 °C (86 °F) being offset by the effects of moderate vertical wind shear. It officially started on 1 November 2008, and officially ended on 30 April 2009. Each of the outlooks accounted for analogue seasons and the effects of various climate drivers, which included the state of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). [52] The tropical low made landfall on the Kimberley coast between Bidyadanga and the Anna Plains cattle station just after 00:00 UTC on 9 December. [51] Environmental conditions around the system were conducive for intensification, with low vertical wind shear, good upper-level outflow and sea surface temperatures near 30 °C (86 °F). [73], As the sprawling tropical low tracked inland, flood watches and warnings were issued for large swathes of the deserts of western central Australia, incorporating parts of Western Australia, the Northern Territory and South Australia. 278,219 Pages. The United States Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) and other national meteorological services including Météo-France will also monitor the basin during the season. Reasonator; PetScan; Scholia; Statistics; Search depicted; Subcategories. The region averages three tropical cyclones in a season, and the bureau assesses the region to have a very low level of accuracy when forecasting tropical cyclone activity. The 2020-21 Australian region cyclone season was a slightly below-average season, with nine tropical cyclones, six of which intensified further into severe tropical cyclones. [95] Initially situated approximately 825 km (510 mi) west-northwest of the Cocos Islands, the system was located in an environment that was generally unfavourable for intensification, with moderate to strong vertical wind shear offsetting otherwise conducive upper-level outflow and warm sea surface temperatures of 28–29 °C (82–84 °F).[86][87][95]. List of Australian region cyclones before 1940. The region averages seven tropical cyclones in a season, and the bureau assesses the region to have a low level of accuracy when forecasting tropical cyclone activity. The outlook called for a reduced level of tropical cyclone activity in the early season, from November to January, but an increased level of activity in the late season, from February to April. ; Please keep off-topic and political discussion to a minimum, and respect the guidelines listed to the right. [86] After reaching the Dampier Peninsula on 20 December, the system turned sharply to the east and began tracking further inland. Category:Australian region cyclones | Military Wiki | Fandom. The most active month was December 2018, with a total of seven tropical lows existing in the region at some … Near normal activity during the season was expected for Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands, while an elevated level of activity was expected in the Coral Sea and the northern Tasman Sea, especially during the late season.

Additionally, it is also the deadliest tropical cyclone season recorded in the Australian region, with Cyclone Flores killing an estimated 1,650 people alone, making Flores the single-deadliest tropical cyclone recorded in the entire Southern Hemisphere. The 2020–21 Australian region cyclone season is the period of the year when tropical cyclones form in the Southern Indian Ocean and Pacific Oceans between 90°E and 160°E. The Australian region between 90°E and 160°E is officially monitored by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, the Indonesian Agency for Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics, and the Papua New Guinea National Weather Service and, while others like the Fiji Meteorological Service and the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration also monitor the basin. The sub-region also covers waters off Indonesia as far west as Java and as far east as Timor. In October 2020, Australia's Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) issued its tropical cyclone outlook for the 2020–21 season, and in the same month, the agency contributed towards the Southwest Pacific Tropical Cyclone Outlook, along with New Zealand's MetService, NIWA and the Fiji Meteorological Service (FMS). [17] The system later intensified into Severe Tropical Storm Bongoyo in the South-West Indian Ocean cyclone region on 7 December. This is the forum page for the 2019-20 Australian Region cyclone season.. This season was also the first time that the BoM implemented a "tropical cyclone year." [3], The BOM expected an average to slightly above average number of tropical cyclones for the season. By this time, however, the system was quickly approaching the Australian coast, so the time available for further intensification was very limited. Upload media Wikipedia: Follows: 2017–18 Australian region cyclone season; Authority control Q55389060. [citation needed], The Bureau of Meteorology defines four regions within the Australian region which are used when the bureau issues tropical cyclone seasonal outlooks every year. Contents[show] Storms Tropical Cyclone Billy A tropical low formed off Australia on August 11. [82][83][84] Around this time, the BOM estimated the tropical low's central atmospheric pressure to be 995 hPa (29.38 inHg). [21][22] Increased winds, as well as occasional showers and thunderstorms, occurred across the islands while the system was located nearby. [26][27] The system was assigned the official identifier code 02U upon formation. They develop between 25˚south and 40˚south and within 5˚ of the Australian coastline, typically during the winter months. It formed from the monsoon trough on 12 February in the Coral Sea. Its maximum intensity was reached as the cyclone passed north of the Cocos-Keeling Islands. Cyclone season within the tropic region of Australia typically ranges from November 1 st to April 30 th. [30][31] Deep convection continued to develop near the centre during the overnight period, and as the low began to track eastwards, the JTWC upgraded the system to a tropical storm on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane wind scale at 18:00 UTC on 8 December. According to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology, the most frequently hit portion of Australia is between Exmouth and Broome in Western Australia. Tropical cyclone formation in this area is rare, and no cyclones have been named in it since 2007. With an average of 10 cyclones per year developing amongst areas such as Exmouth and Broome in the west, and far north Queensland in the east, cyclone season can be pretty daunting. The 2020–21 Australian Region Cyclone Season is the period of the year when most tropical cyclones form within the Southern Indian Ocean and Pacific Oceans between 90°E and 160°E. They also predicted that the Western and Northwestern sub-regions both had a 63% chance of experiencing more tropical cyclones than usual, the Northern region had a 57% chance of above average activity, and the Eastern region had a 67% chance of more tropical cyclones than the average. [59] Maximum wind gust speeds recorded on the mainland included 67 km/h (42 mph) at Port Hedland;[60] 65 km/h (40 mph) in Warburton;[61] 63 km/h (39 mph) at Lombadina;[62] 61 km/h (38 mph) at Giles and Telfer,[63][64] 59 km/h (37 mph) at Christmas Creek;[65] 56 km/h (35 mph) at Broome, Curtin, Derby and Barimunya,[66][67][68][69] 54 km/h (34 mph) at Karratha and Marble Bar;[70][71] 52 km/h (32 mph) at Roebourne;[72] and 50 km/h (31 mph) at Mandora. Die Australische Zyklonsaison 2013–2014 begann offiziell am 1.November 2013 und endete am 30. Please sign your comments using four tildes (~~~~).Place comments that start a new topic at the bottom of the page and give them a descriptive header. [35][36] This enabled the system to strengthen as it rapidly approached the coast of Western Australia at a speed of approximately 40 km/h (25 mph), although vertical wind shear once again began to increase. Tropical cyclone activity in the Australian region has large variability from year to year, due to the influence of naturally occurring climate drivers, such as ENSO. The basin sees an average of about seven cyclones each year, although more can form or come in from other basins, such as the South Pacific. [26] Initially located in an unfavourable environment for intensification, the tropical low began to encounter somewhat improved conditions as it tracked towards the southeast. It began on 1 November 2005 and ended on 30 April 2006. [4], The Northwestern sub-region encompasses the area east of 105°E, west of 130°E and north of 25°S. [49] Due to the system's proximity to the coast, however, both the BOM and the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) forecast only a low chance of development into a tropical cyclone before making landfall. [4], The Southwest Pacific Tropical Cyclone Outlook covered a portion of the Australian region that comprised waters surrounding Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, the Coral Sea, and the northern Tasman Sea including Norfolk Island. The region also covers waters off Indonesia that include the main islands of Java, Bali, Lombok, Sumbawa, Sumba, Flores and the western half of Timor. The system then weakened and dissipated well east of Madagascar. Within this region a tropical disturbance is classified as a tropical cyclone, when it has 10-minute sustained wind speeds of more than 65 km/h (35 mph), that wrap halfway around the low level circulation centre, while a severe tropical cyclone is classified when the maximum 10-minute sustained wind speeds are greater than 120 km/h (75 mph). [20], Tropical Low 01U made its closest approach to the Cocos Islands on 27–28 November, passing a little more than 500 km (310 mi) to the west.
