The “scary” tropical storm is approaching Queensland

The wind occurs along the golden coast of Australia, and is also swollen. But while the authorities warn the residents to stay indoors when the Alfred’s cyclone is approaching, the unbearable surfers are cautious of the wind.

“This is what we look forward,” said Serfer Jeff Wheterle, waiting for the water skiing took him out of the beach and transfer it to big waves. “This is the fifth day right – I didn’t do anything except food, sleep, surf and do it again.”

The cyclone is expected to conclude as a second category system on Saturday morning.

This week, Kirra Beach is famous for its switches and the surfers were busy with a strong wind.

“There are people who are going to lose their homes, but at the moment you are accepting good.

In recent days, the path of cyclone Alfred has slowed down and according to experts on meteorological experts, and therefore, from the previous forecasts, he moves.

“The second category system means wind near the center up to 95 km/h (59 km/h), with gusts up to 130 km/h,” Matthew Kolapop said.

Another meteorologist called his progress as a “running pace” that caused concern that a long rain and flood could bring.

Four million people are in shooting with Alfred’s cyclone. It is expected to get between the solar coast and the gold coast – the Australian section, known for its beautiful beaches and the upper devices – as well as in Brisbane, the third largest city of Australia with a population of almost 3 million.

While sharp surfers use wind and waves, most residents are killed indoors.

Stephen Valentin and his wife, who live in the city of Logan south of Brisbane, prepared about 30 liters of water, food for themselves and their pets, and created “protective rooms” in their home, located away from the windows.

“At the moment, we are as prepared as we can be for the fact that none of us survived … Nothing came south,” said Mr. Valentin, who grew up in the city.

“We would get the edge of the cyclone so often, but not to this level,” he added.

While Queensland is not a stranger cyclone is the most prone to spontaneous states in Australia-rays they come so far south.

Alfred’s cyclone is supposed to be dropped as much as 800 mm of rain in the coming days, affecting the large territory of South Queensland and the North New South Wales. Flood Flash and Riverine is the biggest problem in lowland areas.

“These are difficult times, but Australians are tough people, and we are stable people,” said Prime Minister Anthony Albonez on Thursday, repeating the duties of the mayor of the Donna Gates, who said Cyclone Alfred is a “terrible proposal” for this region.

The new South Wales police said one person went missing on Friday after his four -wheel drive was interferes with the river quickly.

As of Friday, more than 84,000 houses in two states were without power, and tens of thousands were under evacuation orders.

Almost 1000 schools closed, public transport was suspended and airports were closed. Flights are expected to date on Sunday as soon as possible. Electoral operations were also canceled.

Last Alfred’s cyclone was in 1974 when Wanda struck in January, and then two months later Zoe moved to the coast.

Floods, however, are more common. In February 2022, thousands of houses were damaged in most east of Australia after heavy rain.

Authorities sought to prepare communities ahead of Alfred’s cyclone. The council opened a depot with a bag across the region to help residents protect their homes.

“This is surreal. We know it is going, but it’s very quiet,” said Anthony Singh, a resident of the suburban Brisbane West -end. He waited for four hours on Wednesday to pick up bags to protect his home.

Mark Clayton resident helped coordinate a collection of sand bags, throwing more than 140 tons of sand.

“I think people fear a little,” he says. “Will the buildings remain, will the roofs remain? People expect a lot of trees to go down and lose power over a long period of time.”

When supermarkets are closed now and people are mostly leaning at home, there is a lot of uncertainty when Australians are waiting for a thunderstorm to hit.
