As some of you are already aware Iggy is currently tracking down the WA coast off NW Cape. Still a fair way out to sea but a very unpredictable path. Anyone heading up that way especially with a van may want to keep an eye on the BOM site for any warnings.
Cheers

Dont know where you got un-predicatable. Been tracking the low then the cyclone for work since Monday. Looks like a fizzer to me.

If you have been watching this one from formation a few days ago and noted where it was originally heading and the number of course changes it has made you would know what I meant.
My son works at one of loading docks for Riotinto and I can assure you they were keeping a very close eye on it until it decided to head away from them.
I agree if it keeps heading towards ocean areas of low surface temperature then it will lose intensity. If not who knows and if you read my post it was intended as an info only for those heading up that way.
