Tropical Cyclone Alfred may have slowed down, but authorities warn the delay won’t diminish the impact. The system is now expected to make landfall on Saturday, roughly 24 hours after previous forecasts, but will likely maintain its status as a category two storm.
On Thursday, the system “spun around on itself” and briefly stalled before resuming its path to the south-east Queensland coast where approximately 3.8 million residents have been asked to hunker down in their homes.
