HHHHMMMMM maybe,,,,, but where does the low go after land fall with monsoon trough developing????????? Im off from 5th of april till 24th, am watching with interest......... maybe roper

I predict it will be slow moving,then move west and sit over the middle top end for about 6 days,dumping 400-700mm's of rain,deeming all rivers unfishable until after I have left on the 19th...

Look out Mitchell st!

When do you arrive Jonesy?

Not for another two weeks Drifter. I should be ok,just being pessimistic.
Though if it sits over land for any time next week it may put our Daly plans on hold...
