Tropical Cyclone Alfred is forecast to make a sharp turn westward towards southern Queensland, Australia in the coming days. Landfall is likely north of Brisbane later this week, but the exact timing remains uncertain. The system is expected to weaken before landfall but may still pose significant hazards. A powerful easterly swell and heavy rain could bring coastal flooding from Wednesday as Alfred nears. #australia #foryoupage #fyp #aussie
