A tiny town known as "cyclone city" on Australia's remote northwest coast was being lashed by winds of up to 235 kmh (145 mph) late on Thursday as a severe tropical cyclone slammed ashore from the Indian Ocean.
Tropical cyclone Glenda, the second destructive storm to hit Australia in 10 days,casque beats, had earlier forced the evacuation of hundreds of people in larger towns,doudoune moncler pas cher, shut down oil and gas rigs and disrupted iron ore shipments in the region.
Meteorologists said the eye of the cyclone passed over the town of Onslow, 1,390 km (860 miles) north of the Western Australia state capital of Perth, at 9 p.m. local time.
"It was really, really creepy. Before it was hammering down and we had winds gusting in ... and now it's absolutely dead still," one unidentified Onslow resident told Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio.
The category four cyclone, one below the maximum grade, stalled briefly as it crossed the remote and sparsely populated coastline but was expected to resume moving southwest through the ruggedly beautiful Pilbara region.
"Residents of Onslow are warned that very destructive winds will soon resume without warning from a different direction," Australia's Bureau of Meteorology said in its latest cyclone warning (www.bom.gov.au).
"Very destructive gusts to 235 kmh are expected near the cyclone center, and are occurring on the coast in the vicinity of Onslow," it said.
There were no immediate reports of damage from Onslow.
