Summary edit

Description
English: Tropical Cyclone Riley formed on the night of January 23, 2019, off the Dampier Peninsula of Australia. As it travelled to the southwest roughly parallel to the coastline of Western Australia, Riley brought heavy rain and high surf to coastal regions of that state. On January 25, Riley’s maximum sustained winds reached 80 mph (130 km/h), or Category 1 status on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale.

According to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) on January 26, Riley was located near 17.2S 117.3E, or about 380 km (236 mi) north-northwest of Port Hedland. It is forecast to track generally to the west-southwest, away from land and avoiding the Pilbara Coast.
