Heavy rain and damaging winds expected after storm crossed coast between Townsville and Bowen on Sunday morning
Residents are being “smashed” by heavy rain and fierce wind gusts after Tropical Cyclone Koji crossed the coast in north Queensland.
Wind gusts up to 100km/h brought down trees and fences as the cyclone tracked south to south-west, with residents from Bowen to Mackay in the line of fire as the system crossed the coast, the Bureau of Meteorology said on Sunday morning.
