abc.net.au/news/cyclone-ilsa-to-bring-rain-to-central-and-south-east-australia/102222742Severe Tropical Cyclone Ilsa is set to dump rain across large parts of Australia and possibly bring damaging winds as it links up with a frontal system sweeping over the Southern Ocean.Rainfall in several states is set to continue, however, and warnings are in place for the NTThe powerful storm ripped over the Pilbara as a category four just after midnight on Thursday.
But the rain is set to continue for days and warnings of heavy falls and damaging winds are in place for the NT. "It's providing a corridor of moisture for the two systems to link up, which allows that rainfall to fall in the northern parts of SA," she said. "So on Saturday we will see rainfall across southern NT, northern SA, eastern parts of SA and southern New South Wales and Victoria," she said.
