Andrew Moy drew my attention last Sunday on a hurricane getting ready to hit Queensland.: YASIYasi (Bureau of Meteorology)So, with Claire and François we rushed onto the SMOS data to see what are the surface conditions. Actually the soil had dried down fairly well during the last 15 days or so, but as from yesterday we see a moistening around MacKay.SMOS Data for January 29 to 31 2011 SMOS Data for january 30 to 31st 2011So there are some pretty wet soils and it is nowhere really dry….According to the Australian Bureau of Meteorolgy forecast, Yasi should strike a bit further to the north. almost where the soils are the dryest…BoM forecatsSo depending on the rainfall amount (we are no specialists of this) and considering the surface is somewhat humid to rather wet, some floodings may re occur.We do hope the Bureau of Meteorolgy and other organisations in Queensland and Australia will be able to make sense and good use of this information to help people down under.Andrew, Francois, Claire and Yann
