Issued at 12:08 PM WST on Monday 10 February 2025
Flood Watch Number: 3
FLOODING POSSIBLE FOR THE DE GREY RIVER AND PARTS OF SANDY DESERT FROM TUESDAY
A tropical low is forming off the west Kimberley coast. The low is forecast to move southwest parallel to the west Kimberley coast and potentially develop into a tropical cyclone early Wednesday. The system is then forecast to move further to the southwest towards the Pilbara coast during Wednesday.
A Tropical Cyclone Advice is current for Western Australia.
Catchments across the Flood Watch area, particularly towards the coast, have become wet with recent rainfall.
Widespread daily rainfall totals of 30-40 mm are forecast around the southern Kimberley Coast for Monday and Tuesday, with isolated higher totals in excess of 80 mm possible. Higher daily totals are possible around the Pilbara Coast later in the week depending on the development and track of the low.
Forecast rainfall in the flood watch area is expected to result in river rises, areas of flooding and may adversely affect road conditions. Roads may become impassable and some communities may become isolated. Significant disruption of transportation network and extensive road closures are possible.
Catchments likely to be affected include:
De Grey River
Sandy Desert
West Kimberley Rivers
This flood watch is available by dialling 1300 659 213. For more information on the Flood Watch Service visit http://www.bom.gov.au/water/floods/floodWarningServices.shtml

Areas Affected:
Warning zone: None.
Watch zone: Cape Leveque to De Grey including Broome.
Cancelled zone: None.
Details of Tropical Low 18U at 8:00 am AWST:
Intensity: Tropical Low, sustained winds near the centre of 35 kilometres per hour with wind gusts to 85 kilometres per hour.
Location: within 75 kilometres of 15.1 degrees South 121.8 degrees East, estimated to be 320 kilometres north of Broome and 185 kilometres northwest of Cape Leveque.

A weak tropical low (18U) is slowly forming northwest of the Kimberley coast. The low is forecast to move southwest and slowly develop, potentially reaching cyclone intensity on Wednesday. The system is then forecast to move further towards the Pilbara coast but be slow moving on Thursday and Friday while strengthening further. There is high variability in location and intensity of the system by landfall.
Hazards:
Gales with DAMAGING WIND GUSTS to 100 kilometres per hour may develop near the Kimberley coast between Cape Leveque and Bidyadanga from Wednesday morning, if the system moves closer to the coast than forecast. These DAMAGING WIND GUSTS may develop between Bidyadanga and De Grey later Wednesday. Locally heavy falls are possible near the Kimberley coast between Cape Leveque and Broome today, potentially becoming more widespread and extending towards Bidyadanga and De Grey during Tuesday and Wednesday.
