Cyclone Jasper - Force Thirteen -Panic Buying Rocks Supermarkets As Cruise Ships Turned Away in Queensland

---Set to Hit North Queensland Next Week

Severe Storm Hit Sydney After 40 Degrees Heatwave

Daily Mail Australia 10 DEC 2023









A cyclone barrelling towards northern Queensland has been downgraded as panic buying rocks supermarkets and cruise ships are turned away.


Empty supermarket shelves were spotted in Cairns and Townsville as people prepared to batten down for the arrival of Cyclone Jasper later in the week.

On Sunday morning the category two storm, which was downgraded from a category four, was located around 900km east of Cairns but was moving west at a relatively slow pace of 7km/h.

'We are expecting it will re-intensify as it heads towards the coast early morning back into a category three and hitting the coast somewhere between Cape Melville and Cardwell,' he said.

Areas potentially affected include the popular tourist destinations of Innisfail, Cairns with the areas north of that city, such as Cooktown and Port Douglas, likely to bear the brunt of storm.



Bureau of Meteorology meteorologist Jonathan How told Daily Mail Australia on Sunday that the cyclone is expected to strengthen as it makes landfall.
