One of the Queensland team, which will be in service today to bring the latest from the hurricane area Joe Hinckev. He has a former with hurricanes, Hurricane Larry to be accurate, and in the piece today he tells the shelter on a farm where the storm has passed in the 4 category in Innisfail in 2006.
The atmosphere describes:
Fallen trees and giant situations from bamboo prevented the single road to our farm until the army and the council brought heavy machines to purify the way for some time after that.
We were without water ongoing or energy for several days, and perhaps weeks, the mobilization threw the temporary kitchen where we ate meals cooked from the gas barbecue and drank immediate coffee made of rain water and UHT milk to a birth whims.

NSW SES exports safety tips with Alfred’s approach
The government emergency service in New South Wales sent these safety messages to those in the storm path:
-
People must prepare their homes for strong winds, by placing loose elements around their home, reducing trees from real estate and not parking under trees or power lines.
-
Prepare an emergency set with essential elements including medications, documents, pets and family images.
-
Never lead, walk, ride, play or swim in flood water. If you come across the flood flooded, run and search for an alternative.
-
Call NSW SES at 132 500 if you need help during flooding, storm or tsunami. In the case of life -threatening emergency, call Triple Zero (000).

New South Wales Communities have been evacuated while thousands of people are called SES to help
The emergency service in the state of New South Wales says it has responded to 6,300 invitations to help, as heavy rains hit the south of the tropical hurricane Alfred societies on the northern rivers and northern rivers.
A number of societies, including CBD LIMORE, North and South, have been evacuated. The city was severely affected by the floods in 2022.
SES says: “As the situation is revealed, more evacuation operations may be released, staying on a permanent knowledge, and staying on alert,” SES says.
The service says it has conducted three flood rescue operations and has already responded to 3,495 accidents during the Alfred tropical hurricane, which remains on the latest advice about 24 hours of land.

The tropical hurricane Alfred made another irregular episode as it follows towards the southeastern coast of Queensland, where the predictors warn that the regime’s behavior means “great uncertainty” about its place and the date of its arrival strongly.
It displays the updated tracking maps of the Meteorology Office – from early Friday morning – Alfred hit the coast north of Brisbane around dawn on Saturday.
It is expected to maintain its intensity from the second category until it reaches the Gulf of Mauriton, but it can be weakened by the Gulf islands and reduce its classification into one storm by the time of its arrival in the coast.
These tracking maps are the best estimates, using information from a number of models that predict how the hurricane behavior. The predictors were precisely able to provide societies with a great warning that Alfred would head west on Tuesday and head towards the coast.
But as if emphasizing the difficulty of giving accurate information – such as the time and location of the hurricane that crosses the coast – Alfred is misinterpreted as it is heading to the inhabited east.
Late Friday, the hurricane performed another Pirouette, as the path was flying on itself.
The office said in its update on Friday: “The regime maintains a general western path, yet I recently completed a small episode, similar to the previous episodes that occurred during the past few days.”
“It will not be surprising to see more differences in the short term in the path as Alfred approaches the coast, which will be important when the system follows the radar.
“The medium hills will go to the south to the Alfred in general west towards the coast. However, there is a variation in the strength of the flowing flow and expects differences between the north and the south.
“The last track indicates that the decline is likely on Friday night or Saturday morning. However, due to the slow and sometimes dangerous system movement, there is a state of great uncertainty in the exact time, and the same crossing is expected to be prolonged.”
The winds of the storm, accompanied by the storm, have already achieved a major extension of the Quinzland coast and the New South Wales coast.
This has led to a large scale power.
As of 5.30 am, Energex in Queensland It was reporting power network 28,655 Customer interruptions throughout the southeast of Queensland, all of which are attributed to “damage due to the hurricane”.
In New South Wales, provider The basic energy said that As of 6 am, Alfred left more than 35,000 homes and companies without strength in northern New South Wales during the night after covering the strong winds and heavy rain.
The worst societies were affected in the northern rivers and the northern Al -Aqsa coast.
The company said in an online update: “The basic energy sets have worked late in the evening to restore what they could safely until the conditions become very dangerous from work,” the company said in an online update.
“Once you are safe to do so, the crews will continue to restore energy as they can so that they can reach the areas of the water that is overwhelmed by the water or damage it due to the wreckage of the wind or vegetation.
“Because of the harsh conditions, the extent of the damage and the ongoing weather may take several days before restoring the energy of the customers.”
Bom Warning against Live Flash extinguishing
Meteorological predictors office Jonathan Hao Tell ABC that the influence of wind and rain will remain important:
Regardless of whether it intersects with category 1, 2 or 3, we still expect that the rain is very heavy and threatens life before crossing and after a long time of crossing as well and this very dangerous storm.
The outer part of the storm is criticized the coast in a huge survey from the Sunshine coast to Graftone in northern New South Wales, with wind speeds touching 111 km/h in Bay Bay.
Evacuation order in northern New South Wales
NSW SES 21 has issued an emergency warning, 36 realistic warnings and 36 warnings for advice.
It includes preparing to evacuate advice for many regions in northern New South Wales, including Moroyloma, South Morwellba and the settlement point due to the risk of floods.
SES advised people in parts of Mullumbimby to the east of the railway line to monitor the situation and prepare for evacuation. A evacuation center was created at the Ocean Shores Country Club Club.
More about the Alfred movement all night
Since we all have now begun to realize, Alfred is slowly and not fully predicted in his movements. The past few hours confirm this.
At one point of the night – according to the update at 11 pm Aest – it seems that it is away from the coast and was 240 km from the coast. At 7 pm, it was 225 km east of Brisbane.
By the time Bom issued his next advice at 1.34 am, he seemed to polish himself again and was returning to the ground. Boom said:
After the slow transition for several hours, tropical #Cyclonealfred It moves to the west again, towards the QLD coast.
The current tracking map shows that it will be about 25 km from the coast by one o’clock in the morning on Saturday, while the storm will weaken the first category.
Good morning
Welcome to our live coverage of the tropical hurricane Alfred.
The latest advice from the Meteorological Office at 4.52 am, AST places 195 km east of Brisbane. He traveled 30 km since BOM expectations at 7 pm, when it was 225 km east of the city. It is still slow to move.
The last advice says that the storm eye is still tracking the Coast on Friday night or early on Saturday morning, “Most likely near the Gulf of Mauriton between Nusa and Coongatta”, and it will weaken to a storm of the first category.
But the effects of the storm already feel a large area – and the next 24 hours are likely to be difficult for millions in or near the storm path.
Boom said there is “a very big danger that has great effects due to heavy rains in a large scale in the coming days.”
Double Island Points in Queensland to Graftone in New South Wales, including Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sinakhan Coast, Bayron Balina, but including Grafton, all in the warning zone.
Boom said the storm will express the heavy rains that could bring life -threatening flash floods, along with very strong winds, high storms, tide and high islands.
