Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology Tropical Cyclone Warning Centre Tropical Cyclone Information Bulletin Issued at 04:42 AM EST on Saturday 11 April 2026 At 4 am AEST Saturday, Tropical Cyclone Maila (Category 1) with central pressure 990 hPa was located near latitude 8.2 south longitude 154.4 east, which is about 630 km west northwest of Honiara and 810 km east of Port Moresby. The cyclone is slow moving. Tropical Cyclone Maila is expected to remain slow moving in the Solomon Sea during Saturday. On Sunday, Maila is forecast to begin tracking west-southwest, possibly affecting southeastern Papua New Guinea before entering the Coral Sea early next week. Maila may then track through the Coral Sea towards the Far North Queensland coast. However, it is likely to weaken below tropical cyclone intensity before reaching the coast. Another possible scenario is that Maila weakens in the Solomon Sea or over southeastern Papua New Guinea during the weekend and does not emerge into the Coral Sea as a tropical cyclone. The next Information Bulletin will be issued by 11:00 am AEST Saturday 11 April.
