Figure 2.Key features identified on true colour RGB satellite image at around 08:00 UTC(4 PM Malaysian time today.


From tomorrow to Tuesday moderate northeast monsoon conditions with a steering flow somewhat from the east over the region as the Siberian High expands and the atmosphere will become more moist and unstable over the region altogether leading to high to very high chances of showers and thunderstorms.

Then from Wednesday the region lies within the doldrum region again as the Siberian High contracts and a northern monsoon trough forms and lies north of the forecast area leading to a light steering flow,from the south/southwest.The light south/southwesterly steering flow also means possible showers and thunderstorms in the early hours and morning as showers and thunderstorms forming due to land breeze convergence over the Straits of Melaka could propagate towards the onshore.
