Monthly Weather Review

Queensland

March 2010

The Monthly Weather Review - Queensland is produced twelve times each year by the Australian Bureau of Meteorology'sQueensland Climate Services Centre.

It is intended to provide a concise but informative overview of the temperatures, rainfall and significant weather events inQueensland for the month.

To keep the Monthly Weather Review as timely as possible, much of the information is based on electronic reports. Although everyeffort is made to ensure the accuracy of these reports, the results can be considered only preliminary until complete quality controlprocedures have been carried out. Major discrepancies will be noted in later issues.

We are keen to ensure that the Monthly Weather Review is appropriate to the needs of its readers. If you have any comments orsuggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us:

Units of measurementExcept where noted, temperature is given in degrees Celsius (°C), rainfall in millimetres (mm), and wind speed in kilometres per hour(km/h).

Observation times and periodsEach station in Queensland makes its main observation for the day at 9 am local time. At this time, the precipitation over the past 24hours is determined, and maximum and minimum thermometers are also read and reset. In this publication, the followingconventions are used for assigning dates to the observations made:

Maximum temperatures are for the 24 hours from 9 am on the date mentioned. They normally occur in the afternoon of that day.

Minimum temperatures are for the 24 hours to 9 am on the date mentioned. They normally occur in the early morning of that day.

Daily rainfall is for the 24 hours to 9 am on the date mentioned. This means a significant fraction of the rain may have occurred onthe previous calendar day.

Monthly rainfall is for the period from 9 am on the last day of the previous month to 9 am on the last day of this month.

Maximum daily wind gusts are in the 24 hours from midnight to midnight.

Climatological valuesThe climatological averages shown in the text and tables are generally long-term means based on observations from all availableyears of record, which vary widely from site to site. They are not shown for sites with less than 9 years of record, as they cannot thenbe calculated reliably. Climatological extremes are generally taken from available observations from all available years of record. Thenumber of years can vary substantially from site to site.

Significant weatherSEVERE TROPICAL CYCLONE ULUISevere Tropical Cyclone Ului (pronounced"Oo-l-oo-ie") was initially analysed as a tropical lowsituated in the Pacific Ocean to the north of Vanuatuon the 8th of March. The low then traversed acrossthe northern islands of Vanuatu and into the farnortheast Coral Sea before it developed into atropical cyclone late in the day on the 12th of March.Ului then rapidly intensified over the next couple ofdays into a severe tropical cyclone as it moved in awesterly direction to the south of the SolomonIslands.

From the 15th to the 17th of March, Ului became aslow moving system as it gradually adopted a southto south westerly track. Ului underwent a weakeningphase as the system moved across the Coral Sea dueto a combination of increased wind shear from anupper trough crossing the Tasman Sea and cool seasurface temperatures.

As Ului fell under the influence of an upper ridge onthe 18th of March the system accelerated towardsthe Queensland east coast, and reintensified into asevere tropical cyclone. Severe Tropical Cyclone Uluimade landfall near Airlie Beach on the WhitsundayCoast at approximately 1.30 am on the 21st ofMarch.

Significant wind damage was reported around theCentral Coast and Whitsundays district, mainlybetween Airlie Beach and Mackay. Reports ofdamage include widespread tree damage, large areasof sugarcane destroyed and localised structuraldamage, particularly to roofs. About 50,000 homeslost power following the passage of the system.Many boats were also damaged or destroyed due tothe large seas and swell created by Ului, particularlyaround Shute Harbour near Airlie Beach.

A report in Severe Tropical Cyclone Ului can be foundat: http://www.bom.gov.au/announcements/sevwx/qld/qldtc20100312b.shtml

The strongest wind gusts recorded in Queenslandduring the month were associated with TC Ului. Agust of 202 km/h occurred at Hamilton Island Airporton the 21st, followed by 178 km/h at Hamilton IslandAirport on the 20th, followed by 146 km/h atProserpine Airport on the 21st.

FLOODINGWidespread major flooding developed over the 2ndand 3rd of March on many of the rivers of southerninland Queensland. Major flooding occurred in theDiamantina, Barcoo and Cooper Creek, Bulloo, Paroo,Warrego, Wallam and Mungallala Creeks, Maranoa,Balonne, Condamine, Moonie, Weir and Dawsonriver catchments. Some record flood heightsoccurred in a number of catchments, including theBalonne at St George and Surat, the Paroo at Eulo,Wallam Creek at Bollon, and the Moonie at Thallon.

The Dawson River at Theodore and Moura reachedits highest level since 1956, and the Warrego atCunnamulla its highest since 1990.

Synoptic summaryAt the end of February, a monsoon low movedeastwards into southwest Queensland, bringingwidespread heavy rain, first to southwestQueensland on the 28th of February and then the 1stof March, then spreading further east into thesouthern interior on the 1st and 2nd. Moist easterlyflow, combined with a second low which formed offthe coast near Fraser Island, also brought heavy rainto coastal regions of southeast Queensland. Themain low weakened and drifted south after the 2nd.

Early on the 1st of March, a monsoon low movedfrom the southeast Northern Territory, intosouthwest Queensland. Convergence on its southernand eastern flanks brought widespread heavy rain tosouthwest Queensland, spreading further east intothe southern interior during the 1st and 2nd. Themonsoon low extended a developing monsoontrough onto the Queensland east coast north ofFraser Island and an east coast low with gale forcewinds developed on the trough during the 2nd. Theheaviest rainfall was concentrated around theSunshine coast, Wide Bay and Burnett districts inresponse to the development of this system. By the3rd, a high pressure system in the Tasman Seaextended a firm ridge along the Queensland eastcoast to the south of the trough. Winds eased belowgale force in the morning as the east coast lowmoved offshore. Showers/drizzle and light rain areaswith low cloud continued over the southern interiorto the south of the monsoon low and scatteredshowers/drizzle occurred along the south coast.

By the 5th, a low pressure system over New SouthWales extended a weak surface trough into southernand central Queensland. Showers occurred overnorthern and eastern districts increasing to areas ofrain over the central and southern interior, withsome moderate falls about the Sunshine Coast andhinterland and also over the southern interior. Onthe 6th, a low pressure system in the GreatAustralian Bight extended a trough of low pressureover southern Queensland, crossing the coast nearDouble Island Point. A narrow rain band wasassociated with this trough over southeastQueensland on the 6th and 7th.

On the 8th, scattered showers and isolatedthunderstorms occurred about the Central coast andCapricornia districts, Cape York Peninsula and the farnortheast tropical coast. Isolated showers and drizzleareas occurred elsewhere over eastern districts. Onthe 9th, isolated showers and thunderstormsoccurred east of about Normanton to Longreach toTexas, with more scattered activity about Herbertand Lower Burdekin and Central Coast districts. Onthe 10th, scattered showers and storms occurredabout the Tropical and North Tropical Coasts. On the11th, scattered showers occurred along the eastcoast, with more isolated activity in remainingeastern districts. Isolated showers and

thunderstorms occurred in the north and northwestof the state. Scattered showers continued along theeast coast on the 12th.

On the 12th of March, TC Ului developed over the farnortheast Coral Sea. Meanwhile, a large highpressure system near Tasmania was moving slowlyeastwards. The high extended a ridge along most ofthe east coast of Queensland and together thesystems directed fresh to strong and gusty windsalong most of the east coast, gale force in areas attimes. The winds directed showers into most eastcoast districts and the adjacent inland. Fineconditions continued across most of the inland underthe influence of a middle level ridge. Theseconditions generally persisted until severe TC Uluicrossed the Queensland east coast early on the 21st,then continued to move in west south-west directionacross the south-east tropics in a weakening mode,with heavy rain occurring on its southern flank.

On the 22nd, ex-TC Ului was located over northwestQueensland and was moving west. Widespreadshowers and areas of rain continued over thesouthern tropics and central interior due to a moist,convergent wind flowing into the system over theseareas from the east coast. A surface trough lying overthe southern interior produced thunderstorms overthe Warrego. Widespread showers, rain areas andthunderstorms persisted on the 23rd, particularlyover the eastern tropics, as a ridge along the eastQueensland coast produced a moist onshore flowfeeding into the surface trough over easternQueensland. From the 24th, a high in the GreatAustralian Bight directed moderate to freshsoutheasterly trade winds and isolated to scatteredshowers along the east coast, while an upper troughover northern Cape York Peninsula and Torres Straitproduced areas of rain and thunderstorm overnortheastern Queensland, with some heavy fallsoccurring on the 25th.

On the 27th isolated thunderstorms occurred aboutthe Granite Belt.

By the 30th, a high east of New Zealand extended aridge along most of the east coast of Queensland. Aweak trough extended across the west of the stateand linked to a frontal system moving slowlynorthwards along the New South Wales coast. Anupper trough was moving across south-easternAustralia and generated a cloud and rain band overNew South Wales and southern inland borderdistricts of Queensland. TC Paul was located over theeastern part of the Top End of the Northern Territory.Rain bands spiralling into this system affected CapeYork Peninsula and the Gulf of Carpentaria coast.By the 31st, the trough extending from Ex TropicalCyclone Paul into the southeastern interior ofQueensland and then to a low near the New SouthWales coast. This trough produced rain areas andthunderstorms over southeastern parts ofQueensland. A monsoon trough extended from Ex

The wettest overall was 1903.0 mm at Bellenden KerTop Stn, followed by 825.0 mm at Corsis Alert,followed by 808.2 mm at Happy Valley.

The highest daily rainfall totals recorded during themonth occurred in the East Central Coast district onthe 21st, with 452 mm at Clark Range Alert*,332 mm at Finch Hatton Alert*, 261 mm at RowallanPark Alert* and 258.5 mm at Mt Jukes.

On the 1st of March the most extreme falls occurredin far western Queensland where rainfall totals ofover 150 mm occurred in parts, followed by similarlyheavy falls on the 2nd of March further east throughmuch of southern inland Queensland, particularlythe Warrego and Maranoa districts. 17.1% ofQueensland had its wettest March day on record onone of these two days (7.9% on the 1st and 9.2% onthe 2nd).

These were all new annualextreme daily rainfall totals for these stations.Roseberth Station in the Lower Western district alsohad a new annual extreme daily rainfall total andWindorah Post Office, also in the Lower Westerndistrict, had a record March daily rainfall total.

These daily rainfall totals at Bedourie and Birdsvillewere near the long-term annual average rainfalltotals at these locations – in other words a full year’sworth of average rainfall fell on just one day!Birdsville has received 375 mm for the year so far (asof 4 March), more than double its annual averageand already enough to rank as its seventh wettestyear on record, and its wettest year since 1974.
