Queensland Premier David Crisafulli has outlined how schools, public transport and supermarkets will be impacted this week in the wake of ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred.
Mr Crisafulli laid down the law as Alfred, downgraded to a tropical low-pressure system, continued to ­create havoc across southeast Queensland, unleashing life-endangering flash-floods in Hervey Bay, 280km north of Brisbane, and cutting power to more than 320,000 properties ­regionwide.
An LNP-led state government will always back the decision of on-ground experts, Premier David Crisafulli has said, in a decisive break from Queensland’s Palaszczuk-era mandates.
Queensland Premier David Crisafulli addressed the media at a press conference on Friday morning about the looming Tropical Cyclone Alfred.
The Bureau of Meteorology says the wild weather is "still not over" for parts of Queensland's south-east and northern NSW, with flash flooding still anticipated to strike.
(Reuters) -Hundreds of thousands of people in Australia's Queensland state were without power on Sunday after Alfred, a downgraded tropical cyclone, brought damaging winds and heavy rains, sparking flood warnings.
