Tropical Cyclone Alfred has become ex-tropical Cyclone Aflred, after being put on the gronk hard today.
The erratic and needy weather event has officially been called a tropical low dog by meteorologists, following a rather humbling run in with a Queensland icon.
The blustery weather event was re-classified earlier today after a bit of carry on down at the beach with Queensland Maroons heavyweight Tino Fa’asuamaleaui.
Following a big few days of battening down the hatches, the leader of Queensland and Titans pack reportedly decided that enough is enough, and strode out to deal with Alfred.
Witness report a biblical style calm descending over the Gold Coast as the mulleted heavy hitter calmly walked out onto the beach to see what’s up.
“The seas just came to a still and the wind stopped,” said onlooker Mick Reese.
“I’ve honestly never seen anything like it.”
“Tino just nodded at the horizon, and you could see Alf just drop nuts and fuck off like a NSW centre in his first game.”
While the Cyclone has become a tropical low, experts and emergency services are urging people in effected areas to stay vigilant.
The Bureau of Meteorology’s Matthew Collopy said rainfall totals of up to 800 millimetres could occur in some areas over the next 48 hours.
More to come.
