SunriseAustralia faces extreme heat and cyclone threat
Australia faces extreme weather conditions with temperatures exceeding 40 degrees across Victoria and South Australia, bringing the most dangerous fire conditions since the 2019 Black Summer bushfires. Simultaneously, a tropical low in the Coral Sea has a 35% chance of developing into a cyclone, threatening far north Queensland which has already received over a metre of rain. The flooding has killed more than 16,000 head of livestock, prompting a $38 million federal and state government rescue package.
