This beast of a system is forecast to impose winds of 300 km/hr on the 
coast from Townsville to Cairns, and a tidal surge of around 5 metres height 
in some areas.

It is expected to go 400 + miles inland with only slightly reduced force ( to 
Mt 
Isa).

Best wishes to those affected. Remember Adam Bolt? - he's in there 
somewhere.

Electricity is already cut off from some locations. The ?? Queensland 
Premier ( whoever it was - a very well-spoken woman) was ported over to 
local radio in NZ, and she had concerns about the survival intact about the 
main *spine* of electricity to the northern half of Queensland from the south. 
Among other things.

Brian Swale.
