PRIORITYTROPICAL CYCLONE
TROPICAL CYCLONE ADVICE NUMBER 33
Issued at 9:25 am WST on Friday 28 January 2011
A Cyclone WATCH has been declared for coastal areas from Jurien Bay to Albany,
including Perth, Bunbury and Busselton.
At 8:00 am WST Severe Tropical Cyclone Bianca, Category 3 was estimated to be
410 kilometres west southwest of Exmouth and
400 kilometres west northwest of Carnarvon and
moving southwest at 33 kilometres per hour.
Severe Tropical Cyclone Bianca continues to move in a southwest direction away
from the northwest of the state. Strong and gusty winds are still possible in
areas between Cape Preston and Carnarvon though winds will ease from the east
during the day.
Severe Tropical Cyclone Bianca is expected to gradually weaken as it takes a
more southerly track overnight. On Saturday Bianca will move in a southeasterly
direction towards the southwest corner of the state while weakening steadily.
However there is a significant risk that Bianca will maintain tropical cyclone
intensity as it approaches the coast early on Sunday. If this scenario
eventuates, coastal areas between Jurien Bay and Albany could experience
DAMAGING WINDS with gusts to 120 kilometres per hour.
On Sunday tides between Jurien Bay and Cape Naturaliste are likely to rise
signficantly above the normal high tide mark with VERY ROUGH SEAS, DANGEROUS
SURF and FLOODING of LOW LYING COASTAL AREAS. SIGNIFICANT COASTAL EROSION is
possible. Heavy rainfall is also possible on the southern side of the system.
FLASH FLOODING is possible but extensive flooding is not expected.
SEVERE to EXTREME FIRE DANGERS are likely across a broad area south of a line
from Geraldton to Esperance on Sunday.
FESA State Emergency Service (SES) advises of the following community alerts:
ALL CLEAR WITH CAUTION: People in or near Exmouth and Coral Bay are advised
that wind dangers have passed and people should proceed with caution.
People in the southwest of the state should listen for further advice during
today.
Details of Severe Tropical Cyclone Bianca at 8:00 am WST:
.Centre located near...... 23.0 degrees South 110.3 degrees East
.Location accuracy........ within 35 kilometres
.Recent movement.......... towards the southwest at 33 kilometres per hour
.Wind gusts near centre... 220 kilometres per hour
.Severity category........ 3
.Central pressure......... 951 hectoPascals

Get Into it!
Obviously with safety in mind, if the species down there are like up here (which you wuold think they would be), they will be on the bite BIG time - the best fishing that you get, is before cyclones - get out and have a fish before the storm people, they will be hungry as!!!!!
Again - safety first - NO fish is worth risking your life. Like Webby said, it was absolute glass here before the storm, that is when we get out and have a go..........good luck.
