Cyclone Zelia
An image from Cyclone Zelia that is reaching its potential peak in strength at the hours of 10 a.m. on January 16th. The cyclone had winds at 85 knots (or 98 miles) per hour giving it a category 2 storm. The cyclone grew in strength slightly though out the day but when it reached colder waters quickly reduced in size and strength.
The image was taken over the coral Sea, east of Queensland, Australia but was moving aways from Australia towards New Zealand and is predicted to only only bring heavy rain.
