There is a large area of disturbed weather southwest of Timor. It looks like it may be trying to form a tropical low. Let's wait and see if it may develop or not!

Not sure about SW of Timor but the BoM have mentioned a low further east for the last couple of days.

A tropical low, 1007 hPa, is situated in the Gulf of Papua near Cape York and is

Is that Glenda, boy has she changed her appearance. I'm not sure where Timor is could you be more specific?

I was just pointing out the only tropical low mentioned by the BoM was further east than Timor. The outlooks from Perth will be of interest in the morning then. :P

Not with shear like this no. http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/tropic/real-time/shemi/winds/wgmsshtw.GIF Things may change of course though.

Shear is decreasing over it, P.K. It may have a better chance if this continues.
