A weather system off the coast of Cairns is unlikely to develop into a tropical cyclone but threatens to bring hundreds of millimetres of rain to North Queensland. Emergency alerts have been issued for the Daintree region, with residents evacuated to higher ground, while Green Island has been evacuated and Great Barrier Reef tours cancelled. The system is expected to cross the coast between Cairns and Townsville, bringing heavy rainfall to already saturated areas.
