WAVES and winds were today lashing northwest Australia while a wave of heat will engulf the eastern states again tomorrow.
A cyclone off Western Australia's north coast was intensifying
today as it came closer to land, prompting authorities to warn residents
to prepare their homes and emergency kits.
The Bureau of
Meteorology (BoM) warned the category three cyclone Narelle is expected
to be upgraded to a level four later today as it continues towards
Northwest Cape, near Karratha.
The bureau predicts gales with
gusts to 100km/h in coastal areas tomorrow, along with thunderstorms,
isolated heavy rainfall and possibly even stronger winds developing
through to Saturday.
On the other side of the wide brown land,
emergency services already battling bush fires are bracing for a second
wave of extreme heat.
