Ex-Tropical Cyclone Alfred has battered the eastern regions of Australia, bringing heavy rain, huge waves and strong winds that cut power and shut airports.
Although it has been downgraded to a ‘tropical low’, reports are rolling in detailing the extent of the destruction and The Irish Times would like to hear from Irish expats living in or near Brisbane, or any Australian region impacted by the cyclone.
Were you directly impacted by the weather conditions? Did you have to flee an area for your own safety, or cancel travel plans? Has Cyclone Alfred left property damaged, or negatively affected you in some other way? We would like to hear your story.
You can let us know what you think using the form below, and share any photographs or video clips you think might help tell your story.
