Australian Sky Turns an Apocalyptic Blood Red Ahead of Tropical Cyclone

  • Tropical Cyclone Narelle crossed the Western Australia coast near Exmouth today as a dangerous category 4 system, bringing destructive winds and severe impacts to the region.
  • Traveling more than 5,700 kilometres since forming near the Solomons, Narelle maintained intensity across Queensland and the Northern Territory before reaching the Western Australia coastline.
  • Emergency Services Commissioner Darren Klemm reported significant damage in Exmouth after gusts reached 260km/h, with roofs torn from buildings and trees toppled. Emergency crews assisted residents in the impacted area.
  • A flood watch remains in effect from Exmouth to Perth, with officials urging residents to 'shelter indoors now' as heavy rain and flash flooding threaten communities. Warnings for dangerous storm tides are also active.
  • The system will weaken to a category 3 near Shark Bay before likely transitioning into a tropical low as it moves past Perth tomorrow. Rainfall and wind impacts may extend into the South West Land Division.
