Murray Olds: Australian correspondent on the ongoing impact of ex-Cyclone Alfred
from The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin · host Newstalk ZB
Despite relief from Australians after being spared the worst from ex-cyclone Alfred - the storm is still causing havoc. New reports show hundreds of trees are down and over 350,000 homes and businesses have lost power in Queensland and New South Wales. Flooding continues to be an issue in areas such as Lismore, where 13 defence force personnel were injured in a crash. Australian correspondent Murray Olds says the storm is still packing an 'enormous punch'. "Qantas and Jetstar were hoping to resume flights by Sunday morning - the latest news there, Brisbane Airport has reopened, but there's still very strong winds to the point where it's not safe to get these planes in the air."
