Rare cheznandy Posted February 17 #9 Share Posted February 17 We are just about to board a flight to Brisbane....stay away cyclones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare arxcards Posted February 17 #10 Share Posted February 17 There are no cyclones Chez. In cruising terms, a storm in a teacup. Lincoln wasn't going to affect any cruising, and was barely a cat 1 for around 6hrs before it turned back over the NT coast. Likely a rough night for those on Pellew Islands and some flooding in the Gulf country, but no threat to Luminosa. The next few days look rather calm. Have a great cruise. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No cyclones near Brisbane, but torrential rain and local flooding all night Thursday/Friday. Went for a walk along a creek today and you could see how high the water had been rushing through. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting track, which would make for a really unusual cyclone, but the BOM has changed their mind on it reforming. There are several models for cyclone tracking, and the one the BOM chose named "Lincoln" during a 6 hr period a week ago in the gulf of Carpentaria. Several other models show that the storm didn't reach a high enough intensity to be considered a cyclone. For all of the concerns that the term cyclone conjures, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne have all had more intense storms this past week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mr walker Posted February 24 #14 Share Posted February 24 Just off Majestic Princess (13N Sth Pacific 10-23rd) yesterday. No cyclones for us but a persistent low pressure system around Fiji caused some poor weather for our cruise. A bit bumpy & windy, with a fair amount of rain, in transit to & fro and around Fiji. Very wet for the Suva port stop, rain late in day in Lautoka and Dravuni Is cancelled due to swell. Vila was nice day and lovely day in Noumea on Tuesday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
