Thousands without power in NSW and QLD as Cyclone Alfred approaches

Published
Cyclone Alfred is hours away from landfall in South East Queensland as the state braces for destructive winds and heavy rainfall. The effects are already being felt in the region and into New South Wales with rising flood waters and rough seas battering the coastline. 80,0000 homes and businesses across both states are without power - that could last for days.
