Forum:2011 Southern Hemisphere tropical cyclone season/Errol

===Tropical Cyclone ErrolEdit=== Finally got a new storm out there. 216.211.73.189 19:42, April 15, 2011 (UTC) (this is Yqt1001 btw)
 * Errol will probrably be Australia's last gasp before the season closes up in two weeks... And then, it's done for the SHem. Late-season storms like Errol worry me, because they can unexpectedly explode before landfall. Storms like Monica of 2006, Rosita of 2000 and Lindsay of 1985 are examples of feisty late-season pests in Australia... In the same way, november storms in the Atlantic aren't always weak... Lenny, Michelle, 1932... We'll wait and see what Errol will do. Ryan1000 19:48, April 15, 2011 (UTC)
 * Just to update, Errol has been heading north since it last was mentioned of, and is expected to hit southern Indonesia as a tropical storm before heading out to sea. Although Australia isn't exactly in the path of Errol, Indonesia isn't the best place for a landfalling TS or hurricane, so it really doesn't matter IMO. It's worth watching for now Indonesia's last hit was... well Guba of 2007 got Paupau New Guinea pretty good, but Inigo of 2003 (the strongest ever cyclone in the AUS region) hit the country while a precursor and it got canned, replaced with Iggy. Since Inigo, Indonesia hasn't really been hit hard once. Ryan1000 16:31, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, I think everyone has abandoned the Shem season now... Errol's last advisory was issued. This is the track map of the storm. All it did was stagger northward throughout it's life and ended up in southern Indonesia as a TS. Anyhow, now it's gone. I don't know how bad it was for the country, but it likely was just a big rainstorm for the country, hopefully not a catastrophic flood disaster for the people there. That's it for this half of the SHem season. Farewell. Ryan1000 15:14, April 18, 2011 (UTC)
