About the episode
Severe tropical cyclone Narelle has intensified to a Category 5 system and is barrelling towards Queensland's far north, with landfall expected near the remote town of Lockhart River as a Category 4 or 5 system. The Australian Army has been placed on standby, and residents in Cooktown and surrounding areas within the Cook Shire are being urged to shelter in place. This is the most intense cyclone to hit this part of Queensland since 1990, with water supplies being turned off and evacuations underway for those living on boats.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
