Ex-cyclone Seth still threatens Queensland coast

 




Dozens of beaches in Queensland were closed as ex-tropical cyclone Seth
approached the Gold and Sunshine coasts, bringing with it huge waves and
gale-force winds.



Waves up to 9 metres were recorded off Brisbane and Tweed Heads, according to
government wave monitoring buoys, while the Bureau of Meteorology issued a
hazardous surf warning for the state.




The ex-tropical cyclone is generating swells that are affecting the south-east
coast of Queensland and the north coast of New South Wales, with residents
advised to stay away from beaches.



Surf Life Saving Queensland closed all beaches on the Gold Coast, as well as
some on the Sunshine Coast and in the Wide Bay Capricorn region, with high
tides exacerbating conditions.
