🌀 Severe Tropical Cyclone Trevor made its second landfall at ~1124 UTC+10 (AEST) as a Category 4 Severe Tropical Cyclone on the Australian Tropical Cyclone Scale and a Category 3 Major Hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind scale.

It made landfall ~100km west of the Northern Territory-Queensland border.

🌀 Severe Tropical Cyclone Veronica is actually a Category 4 Severe Tropical Cyclone on ATCS while being a Category 1 Hurricane on SSHWS, this major divide is due to difference on what qualifies as sustained wind between the two scales with ATCS using 10 min average, where SSHWS uses 1 min average. (ATCS defines it right as that is the universal standard put forward by the World Meteorological Organization's Tropical Cyclone Programm)

Veronica is expected to make landfall around 1500 UTC+10 (AEST) between Whim Creek and Port Hedland as a Category 4 Severe Tropical Cyclone ATCS.

🌀 Subtropical Storm Ex-Tropical Cyclone Riley [13TSI, 11S, 94S, 12U] has appeared to have become very Subtropical in nature so I am going to call it Subtropical Storm or eventually Subtropical Depression as the Australian Tropical Cyclone Scale doesn't classify Subtropical Cyclones so I've fallen back on using Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale.

🌀 Tropical Depression 14TA [95P, 13U] isn't likely to become Tropical Cyclone anymore depth than it has now it has moved to far in land the only way it will even survive as a clear low pressure system if it beomes an extratropical cyclone through baroclinic rejuvination.
