Monday, January 22, 7.20am: Queenslanders are bracing for a potential category 3 cyclone forecast to cross the coast, weeks after wild weather lashed the state.
The Bureau of Meteorology said a tropical low in the Coral Sea is expected to develop into a cyclone, which will be named Kirrily, late on Monday.
“We’re getting to a severe category 3 cyclone as we move through the Wednesday time-frame,” senior bureau meteorologist Dean Narramore said on Sunday.
Mr Narramore said it was likely to approach the Queensland coast as a severe cyclone into Thursday but there was still some uncertainty about where it would make landfall.
“While our consensus track does cross it to the south of Townsville, there’s still a range of scenarios where we could see a cross between Cairns and Mackay,” he said. – AAP
