Southeast Queensland and Northern New South Wales are facing something they haven’t seen in 50 years – a tropical cyclone making landfall. Cyclone Alfred was expected to fizzle out. But in a surprising turn, it’s headed straight for the coast, expected to hit as a Category 2 storm. That means damaging winds, power outages, coastal erosion, and the potential for major flooding.
