No mate. That is Queensland, "The Sunshine State" and no I think a Category 5 cyclone is no overstatement. This one, Marcia, made landfall at Yepoon, near Rockhampton where my brother lives. There is another cyclone "Lam" being a nuisance over the Northern Territory eastern islands not as bad because of lower population densities of the Gulf of Carpenteria

Tropical storms already over there? In the land of Florida, we have mid forties weather thanks to cold fronts.

Worst case scenario: if the cyclone utterly devastates Queensland, the damage could total as much as six hundred dollars.

(Although realistically it's more like December-March). And please for the love (or lack of) God, use Celsius or kelvin to measure temperature.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK "That's disgusting.
