The cyclone is already impacting the Mid North Coast & Northern Rivers with destructive winds & large surf. 🟨 Stock up on essentials if isolation is likely—no need to panic buy. 🟨 Raise assets above expected flood heights. 🟨 Download Hazards Near Me for updates. #CycloneAlfred

Large & powerful surf currently at south exposed beaches inc Queens Head, Lighthouse & Dunbogan beaches. Only expected to increase over coming days with Sunday/Monday the peak at around 3.5m. Take care out there, beware of wave surges, avoid rock platforms at exposed locations.

Swell is starting to build this afternoon with its peak expected Tuesday. Whilst our protected north facing beaches may have appealing waves, we ask those who are not experienced surfers to please stay dry over the next 24-hours. The swell should dissipate by the end of the week.

🚩 Some ordinary conditions are expected at south exposed beaches on Tuesdays, but easing by the end of the week. Head to your north exposed beaches for the safest conditions. Town Beach & Flynns Beach are currently patrolled 7 days per week.
