Severe Tropical Cyclone Kirilly
Jason Caterina Tropical cyclone Kirrily, the third named storm of the 2023-24 Australian cyclone season, initially formed over the Gulf of Carpentaria before moving east into the Coral Sea. As Australia is in the middle of an El Nino event, seas surface temperatures in the Coral sea have been running above average which helped the system to quickly strengthen into a tropical cyclone as it moved from the Gulf to the Coral Sea around the 16th January. Strong outflow and low vertical wind shear also contributed to the system rapidly intensifying and by the 19th January the Joint Typhoon Warning Center issued a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology then began issuing warnings for the system on the morning of the 21st January with the Joint Typhoon Warning center following suit two days later on the 23rd.
