Next ones that form in Aus waters will be Bianca (just named in WA), Carlos, Dianne and Errol but we've also been watching TC Wilma bowling along nicely from the Fiji direction......now heading for NZ....but all the models are hinting at a system developing in the next few days which will probably head for Queensland somewhere around the first week of Feb......keep your eyes peeled
Cyclone Errol, yeh!

Why am I thinking of a bald-headed black man?
