Virgin Australia warns of flight disruption as ‘bomb cyclone' nears NSW north coast
Flights are likely to be disrupted in the coming days as a destructive weather system rages towards the NSW north coast. Virgin Australia issued a warning on Monday evening for travellers heading to or from Sydney and Newcastle as the storm system loomed closer. 'Forecast adverse weather conditions are likely to affect our Sydney and Newcastle schedule on Tuesday,' a spokesman said. 'The safety of our guests and crew is our highest priority and we encourage those travelling tomorrow to keep an eye on the status on their flight via our website or app.' No flights have been cancelled at the time of writing, and passengers on flights that may be affected have been contacted. Jetstar is also yet to cancel any flights, but NewsWire understands the airline is closely monitoring the progress of the storm. Qantas has been contacted for comment. The powerful 'bomb cyclone' is expected to hit large parts of the NSW coastline over the next few days, with Bureau of Meteorology hazard preparedness manager Steven Bernasconi warning of flash flooding, and thunderstorms that bring heavy rain, damaging winds and even water spouts. The coastal trough is currently deepening off the North Coast and is expected to evolve into multiple low pressure systems off the coast on Monday night, with rainfall and possible thunderstorms likely along northern parts of the coast overnight. From there, the system will track slowly southward along the NSW coast on Tuesday, with the heaviest rainfall expected from the Hunter in the north to the Illawarra in the south on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Bureau of Meteorology's Daniel Hayes said a 'bomb cyclone' – or 'bombogenesis' – was a low pressure system that formed 'very quickly', causing pressure to drop significantly within a short period of time. 'As we see (the trough) continue to deepen and strengthen up, the focus for the rainfall will be on the south side of that low pressure system,' he said on Monday. 'So around more Central Coast areas through (Tuesday) and potentially further south along the coast, as the low pressure system itself shifts further south through Tuesday and into Wednesday.' Sydney could cop more than 200mm of rain in the next week, and parts of the Mid-North Coast could record up to 300mm. Rainfall is expected to ease by Thursday.

Spirit of Tasmania IV begins 27,000 km voyage to Hobart from Scotland
Spirit of Tasmania IV has departed Scotland and is bound for Hobart, with its expected arrival announced as "late-August". In a statement, ferry operator TT-Line said the new ferry left Leith on Monday and will "travel to Hobart via Gibraltar, Cape Verde Islands (off the western coast of Africa), Cape Town in South Africa, Port Louis in Mauritius and Fremantle in Western Australia". It is a 14,857 nautical mile, or 27,515 kilometre voyage to Hobart. Spirit IV and its sister ship Spirit V are the replacement vessels for the current Spirits I and II, which are almost 30 years old. The ship was expected to leave in May, but an issue was detected with its liquid natural gas (LNG) system. The Spirits replacement project has been troubled by delays and cost overruns, as well as the construction of their Devonport home berth not started in time for their arrival. TT-Line said Spirit of Tasmania IV was "required to stay in Fremantle for four days for vessel importation into Australia, Customs and Immigration formalities, a crew change, bunkers and fresh stores". TT-Line chief executive Chris Carbone said Spirit IV was expected to complete the voyage to Fremantle in about six weeks, weather permitting. "We expect the vessel will be alongside in Hobart in late August for the final fit-out of items including Tasmanian-made mattresses and table tops, cabin stores and artwork, and to undertake vessel crew training," Mr Carbone said. "The training for our crew involves emergency response exercises, passenger muster simulation, firefighting drills, deployment of lifeboats and the mass evacuation systems." Mr Carbone said the work to develop the new Spirit of Tasmania terminal at Devonport was "well underway". "We have seen significant progress to the passenger vehicle areas and freight yards," he said. "The team has begun the complex operation to install 27 marine piles for the wharf and the loading gantry. Nine have been completed." Spirit of Tasmania V was last week handed over to TT-Line and remains in Finland.
