National
The Satellite image is enhanced showing where most of the rain is falling. And its gradually building at the top end over QLD and the Gulf. And also over near where the low was named 90P. The system still exists, its just not a cyclone threat as some tool men had tried to scare everyone into thinking.

The radar has very little on it, but just pointing out again where the main pressure systems are, the low near Vanuatu and the High over Victoria and NSW. It is sitting very much to the North and thus will push trade winds over the weekend. Trade winds push showers up the QLD coast, and if there is no ridge, we see showers. Currently there is a curve in the isobar lines over the Far Northern tropics which is what a ridge is.
State
I have marked the ridge with the light blue arrow over the Far North QLD coast near Cairns. Winds currently moving up the QLD coast but very little crossing. Most of that air is from the low near Vanuatu so warm and very humid. After Saturday the humidity may die down a bit.

The rest of today is mainly clear with some storms for the NW region possible early morning. The first image for 8pm and the second for 4am tomorrow.

Showers spreading inland on Monday and Tuesday. Slightly more steady rain for the exposed coast around Innisfail and The Whitsundays on each of the next four days.

Many don't realise the time spent on bringing a forecast by the major institutions like the BOM, ECWMF and NCEP. Add to that the time it takes for someone to add their analysis and add that to an app. That's the middleman. What I am aiming to do is put you into the analysis seat, and equip you with what you need, in order to understand and work out what you think the forecast will be. Use free apps, they are awesome. Windy, Weatherzone, Metoelogix, tropical tidbits, ncep, whatever, they are free.
So now you know what I do, it does cost me to save you time and bring you the most up-to-date way of getting your forecast. So to support me you don't need to subscribe to an app, just take out an annual shout. And in return, I give you some extra training. $5 for those that just want to know the basics, $55 for those that want to learn more in-depth. http://wallysweather.com.au/yourshout
