Schools are closed and public transport has stopped as rare cyclone approaches Australian coast

82% Informative
Cyclone Alfred is forecast to cross the Queensland state coast somewhere between Sunshine Coast and the city of Gold Coast to the south early Saturday.
A shortage of sandbags in Brisbane , a city of more than 3 million people, led some to buy sacks of potting mix as an alternative.
Alfred is expected to become the first cyclone to hit the coast near Brisbane since Cyclone Zoe hit Gold Coast in 1974 and brought widespread flooding.
