Category 3

History

Tropical Cyclone Ellie formed in late December 2022 during the 2022–23 Australian region cyclone season. The system developed from a tropical low and intensified to reach Category 1 status on the Australian Bureau of Meteorology scale. Ellie made landfall along the Northern Territory coast, crossing southwest of Daly River at 13:30 UTC (11:00 pm ACST) at a sparsely populated location. Shortly after landfall, the United States Joint Typhoon Warning Center discontinued its warnings on the system, and the following day the Bureau of Meteorology issued its final bulletin as Ellie weakened to a tropical low.

Despite losing tropical cyclone status, the remnant system remained traceable as it tracked southwest toward Western Australia through the remainder of December. In early January, the Bureau of Meteorology noted a moderate chance the low could redevelop into a tropical cyclone, though it subsequently moved southeast and continued weakening as it moved further inland. Given that Ellie made landfall in a sparsely populated region, significant impacts on communities were limited, and no major casualties or widespread damage were reported in the available sources.
