Looks like it might make landfall a bit south of the sunshine coast, which means that Brisbane will cop the strongest winds.

Seeing that a) modern houses in non-cyclone areas are typically made out of cardboard and sticky tape and b) Brisbane hasn't seen a decent cyclone since the '70s, this could be an interesting week.

I don't expect the power to stay on after about Thursday morning, there's a lot of trees out there that have never seen 24 hours of gale force winds.
