Ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred sparks call to cyclone-proof homes as far south as northern NSW

"The research is really clear that cyclones and severe weather events are coming south along the Queensland and Australian coastline, and that our severe weather events will become more severe... Professor Steve Turton, a climate change expert with Central Queensland University, said homes and buildings outside traditional cyclone zones should now be subject to cyclone ratings, including in south-east Queensland and even northern New South Wales. I would suggest it needs to go down to at least Coffs Harbour." >>

Another significant severe weather outbreak is forecasted across the Dixie states. Risks include multiple tornadoes, some of which will be strong, widespread damaging wind gusts, and scattered large hail. This has culminated into an overall 45% risk for severe weather, with storms expected to be significant. If you live in the affected area, please stay weather alert. 🚨#wx #severewx #weather #storms #mastodonwx #wxmastodon

Fun with the internet archive: more cheesy govt PSA short films!

They note at the end this is about the huge tornado outbreak of April 3, 1974, which my sister & I spent in the bathtub at my grandparent's home, who didn't have a basement either.

Love the part where the people are calling EMS to *complain* that the area's sirens just keep blaring & need to be turned off.

'Cause they're annoying people.
