Tropical Cyclone Alfred, categorized as a category 2 system, is currently situated approximately 930km north-east of Mackay, Queensland. It is expected to linger in the Coral Sea, with the potential of intensifying into a category 3 cyclone over the next few days. While forecasts suggest it may drift closer to the Queensland coast, the Bureau of Meteorology indicates that its eventual path remains uncertain, with scenarios predicting both a closer approach or continued movement south-east away from land. Residents in central and south-east Queensland are advised to remain informed regarding updates on the cyclone's progress.
A slow-moving tropical cyclone off north-east Australia may pose a potential risk to the Queensland coast, despite remaining distant and mostly harmless for now.
