The latest alerts and warnings advise

Brisbane City Council advises all residents to TAKE SHELTER NOW from Tropical Cyclone Alfred. Tropical Cyclone Alfred is predicted to cross north of Brisbane overnight into the early hours of the morning of the 8 of March 2025.

People across the Brisbane local government area must TAKE SHELTER NOW. Go to the strongest, safest part of the building you are in. This will be away from big windows. It could be a bathroom, walk-in wardrobe, or hallway. Stay there.

In life threatening situations, call Triple Zero (000) immediately. Emergency services may not be able to get you because it is too dangerous.

What are we expecting?

The Bureau of Meteorology advises that Tropical Cyclone Alfred is moving slowly towards the southeast Queensland coast. Rainfall, wind and ocean impacts are likely to persist tonight and over the weekend.

The wind is very dangerous and will be very loud.

You will hear things breaking outside and hitting your house.

Winds could stop suddenly if the eye of the tropical cyclone goes over. Very dangerous winds could start again quickly from a different direction.

Very strong winds can knock down trees and powerlines, blow roofs off houses, and blow away anything not tied down outside. This is a risk to life.
