Known Impacts of Tropical Cyclones, East Coast, 1858 – 2008 by Mr Jeff Callaghan Retired Senior Severe Weather Forecaster, Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane
ARCHIVE: Known Impacts of Tropical Cyclones, East Coast, 1858 – 2008 By Mr Jeff Callaghan Retired Senior Severe Weather Forecaster, Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane The date of the cyclone refers to the day of landfall or the day of the major impact if it is not a cyclone making landfall from the Coral Sea. The first number after the date is the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) for that month followed by the three month running mean of the SOI centred on that month. This is followed by information on the equatorial eastern Pacific sea surface temperatures where: W means a warm episode i.e. sea surface temperature (SST) was above normal; C means a cool episode and Av means average SST Date Impact January 1858 From the Sydney Morning Herald 26/2/1866: an article featuring a cruise inside the Barrier Reef describes an expedition’s stay at Green Island near Cairns. “The wind throughout our stay was principally from the south-east, but in January we had two or three hard blows from the N to NW with rain; one gale uprooted some of the trees and wrung the heads off others. The sea also rose one night very high, nearly covering the island, leaving but a small spot of about twenty feet square free of water.” Middle to late Feb A tropical cyclone (TC) brought damaging winds and seas to region between Rockhampton and 1863 Hervey Bay. Houses unroofed in several centres with many trees blown down. Ketch driven onto rocks near Rockhampton. Severe erosion along shores of Hervey Bay with 10 metres lost to sea along a 32 km stretch of the coast. -

Moura Link - Aldoga Rail Project Queensland Rail Environmental Impact Statement Transport 13. Transport This section addresses the transport requirements for the Project and the potential transport impacts during the construction and operational phases of the Project. 13.1 Existing road network 13.1.1 General The existing road network in the Gladstone/Calliope area is shown in Figure 13.1. The existing roads that are likely to be directly impacted by the Project are outlined below according to their location within the overall project area. 13.1.2 Major roads The project area is adequately serviced by the existing road network, comprising local, State and National road elements. Bruce Highway The Bruce Highway, which extends north from Brisbane to Cairns, is part of the Australian National Highway Network and major traffic carrier in Queensland. The Bruce Highway is under the control of the Queensland Department of Main Roads (DMR) Central District Office. Adjacent to the project area the Bruce Highway is a high standard arterial road (two lane, two way carriageway with auxiliary overtaking lanes for increased capacity) linking the township of Miriam Vale and Rockhampton via the township of Mount Larcom. The Bruce Highway traverses the project area and provides for direct access to sections of the Moura Link. DMR are currently undertaking concept level planning to determine long term requirements with respect to the Bruce Highway. The planning shall identify the corridor requirements and typical arrangements for future upgrades, inclusive of four lane divided carriageways. Dawson Highway The Dawson Highway is a State controlled road under the control of the DMR Central District Office. -
1 the Naming of Mount Wheeler, Central Queensland
8. ‘Many were killed from falling over the cliffs’:1 The naming of Mount Wheeler, Central Queensland Jonathan Richards University of Queensland 1. Placenames Many placenames in Queensland and Australia date from the frontier period. Names may arise from quite mundane circumstances, such as ‘Dry Creek’, ‘Bullock Creek’, etc. Some are ubiquitous, referring to relatively benign events and ideas – for example, the many Muddy, Rocky, Sandy and Stoney creeks – while other placenames are more suggestive of much more sinister affairs. The latter category includes places with frightening names: the various Murdering Creeks and Skull Holes, named after events that some people would apparently rather forget, or even better still, deny ever happened. A third group of names commemorate pioneers, some of whom are connected with episodes of genocidal violence on the Australian frontier. This paper concerns one of the latter. Many people, especially Aboriginal Australians, are distressed by the continuing use of ‘killing’ placenames, terms and words which may remind them of the extensive violence that First Australians still experience today. Although European placenames replaced existing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander landmarks throughout Australia, not all the new names commemorate violence. However, many non-Indigenous Australians remain unaware of the connections and connotations of those that do. While some may claim ignorance of history as an excuse, Indigenous people could hardly be expected to casually ignore the frontier violence that gave us so many gruesome reminders of our past. However, their experiences are often ignored and their consultation is rarely sought in the persistent use of offensive placenames. In Queensland, violence was perpetrated by two main groups: civilian `vigilante’ or `black-hunting’ parties, and an armed formation of Aboriginal men, the 1 The quote in the title is from a report held in the Queensland State Archives (QSA), Governor’s Despatches, 16 December 1861, GOV/23, number 74 of 1861. -
