Tropical Cyclone Alfred is currently predicted to make landfall along the coast of Brisbane, Australia on Thursday night and into Friday morning.
The Category 2 storm is expected to bring extreme conditions, including up to 800mm of rainfall, wind gusts reaching 155kmph, and dangerous storm surge in low-lying areas. Tides are already reported to be one meter above normal, increasing the risk of significant coastal flooding. Cyclones are rare in Brisbane, with the last one, Cyclone Zoe, occurring in March 1974.
