With ex TC Alfred having made landfall, there are some flights coming into the Sunshine Coast Airport today and our first customers for the last five days are able to pick up their Aussie Bargain rental cars. To those who are arriving today and over the next few days, PLEASE do not travel anywhere you don’t really need to. There is still a large amount of flooding in multiple places around the Sunshine Coast. Remember your rental car is NOT authorised or covered for driving through flood waters. Things can get real expensive in a real hurry, even if you “accidentally did it”. Please stay safe out there and if it’s flooded, forget it.

**This warning is no longer current**
⚠️FLOOD WARNING ⚠️
5am Monday 10 March.

Hinterland areas have experienced more than 300mm of rain in the last 12 hrs.

This intense localised rainfall has caused minor to moderate flooding to occur in locations on the eastern side of the hinterland from Eumundi, Nambour, Yandina, Maleny, Mapleton, Palmwoods, Woombye, Bald K**b, Witta and Glass House Mountains.

If you’re moving about the region, please drive to the conditions.

💧Remember, if it’s flooded, forget it.

Tropical Cyclone Alfred, a category 2 system, is slowly moving towards the south-east Queensland coast with impacts expected to increase this evening.

Alfred is expected to remain a category 2 system until the centre starts to interact with the coast and Islands. The centre of Alfred is expected to cross the coast very early Saturday morning, most likely between Noosa and Coolangatta.

Gales with damaging wind gusts to 120 km/hr are developing near the coast between Cape Moreton and Cape Byron and are expected to develop along the remaining south-east Qld and north-eastern NSW coastal and island communities between Double Island Point and Ballina during Thursday evening, possibly extending as far south as Grafton.

Destructive wind gusts of up to 155 km/hr may develop about coastal and island locations near and to the south of the cyclone centre, as Alfred's destructive core approaches the coast.

A dangerous storm tide is likely along the coastal foreshore for exposed areas between Cape Moreton and Yamba, including the Gold Coast and Byron Bay beaches, ahead of the coastal crossing time on the high tides.

Abnormally high tides are likely to continue causing minor flooding of coastal low-lying areas between Double Island Point and Grafton, particularly during the time of high tides Thursday night into early Friday morning and Friday night into early Saturday morning.

Damaging surf leading to significant beach erosion remains likely for the open beaches between Double Island Point and Grafton, and further south over the NSW coast. Separate Coastal Hazard and Hazardous Surf warnings are current for south-east Qld and NSW coasts.

Heavy rainfall may develop for south-east Qld and north-eastern NSW from Thursday night. Heavy to locally intense rainfall which may lead to dangerous and life-threatening flash flooding may occur near and south of the cyclone centre as Alfred approaches and crosses the coast.

Separate Severe Weather Warning and Flood Watches are current for south-east Qld and north-east NSW.
