Severe Tropical Cyclone [View all]

Severe TC Jasper is moving southward from the Marshall Islands and expected to make landfall in Queensland as a Cat 5. Speaking with my sister in Queensland yesterday, she doesn't expect to be in the path it will likely hit further north, near Cairns. She is in Hervey Bay - that little hook on the east coast just below the 1016 isobar.

Down south, where I am (just across the strait from Tasmania), it's hot and very overcast. Huge drops of rain and plunking down. I'm quite enjoying it!
