This beast of a system is forecast to impose winds of 300 km/hr on the
coast from Townsville to Cairns, and a tidal surge of around 5 metres height
in some areas.
It is expected to go 400 + miles inland with only slightly reduced force ( to
Mt
Isa).
Best wishes to those affected. Remember Adam Bolt? - he's in there
somewhere.
Electricity is already cut off from some locations. The ?? Queensland
Premier ( whoever it was - a very well-spoken woman) was ported over to
local radio in NZ, and she had concerns about the survival intact about the
main *spine* of electricity to the northern half of Queensland from the south.
Among other things.
Brian Swale.
