Authorities in northeastern Australia are trying to get a sense of the destruction from Cyclone 1 Debbie. The system made landfall early on Tuesday. It was capable of devastating 2 damage and Debbie had gotten stronger as it approached land. Wind speeds of up to 150 miles per hour, a storm surge, a rise in the sea level of more than 13 feet was possible.


澳大利亚东北部当局正在了解热带气旋黛比的破坏强度。黛比于周二登陆澳大利亚。黛比本身就具有毁灭性的破坏能力,而当其靠近陆地的时候,其破坏性变得更加强大。风速高达每小时150英里,海平面暴涨,海平面的上升高度可能超过13英尺。


Thousands of people in the Australian state of Queensland had been ordered to leave their homes. Police warned that they could not shelter from a storm surge.


澳大利亚昆士兰州上万居民已经下令撤离。警方警告称,否则根本没有办法躲避风暴。


Queensland`s premier 3 said the cyclone would be nasty, that it was capable of being as severe as the last major storm to hit the area. Cyclone Yasi knocked home off their foundations and destroyed farmland back in 2011.


昆士兰总理表示,这次的气旋来的非常的突然,可能是近些年来威力最强的风暴。2011年,热带气旋“雅思”造成惨重影响,家园被破坏,农田被摧毁。


Debbie was also expected to have particularly bad timing 4. Our affiliate 5 7 News said its landfall would coincide with the high tide, threatening homes anywhere near the coasts. Schools were closed, emergency workers were deployed 6 to the region as the equivalent of a category 3 hurricane approach.
