Chances of a tropical cyclone forming off the QLD coast have increased dramatically, with the @BOM_Qld labelling the low tropical system "extremely unpredictable".
Tropical low 05U now has a 55% chance of becoming a cyclone, and carries the potential to hit the same areas that Tropical Cyclone Jasper ravaged a month ago.
"Whatever these systems do, whether they deepen or not … we’re still in the monsoon season, wet weather is still the forecast,” Senior Meteorologist Miriam Bradbury said.
If 05U does develop into a cyclone, there is potential that it could also combine with a monsoon trough that is still developing over the Gulf of Carpentaria and Cape York Peninsula.
The BOM is unsure of an exact time frame, or areas that could be affected, but expects further developments early next week.
