Tropical Cyclone Alfred: Hundreds of thousands of homes without power | 9 News Australia

Live with Covid Karl

Report in my backyard because some flowers lost their petals 😂

I hate the media, they are a disgrace

ok, losing power for a day is a small price to pay if you don't have smashed windows and a flooded home. let's hope that's the worst of it.

The power guy looks pretty casual. You might have interviewed the wrong guy. He’s not panicked enough for MSM

Oh no, what will people do without power? Media is clutching at straws.

Power was cut off intentionally , starting 2 days before any rain or wind even arrived 😂😂😂

Thinking of everyone this morning ❤

Lets face it, the greed of the electrical authority – putting profit before maintenance – explains a lot – about a failing system, this should be fully investigated, when this storm is over,

Most over hyped storm in history. They would have you believe its the end of the world instead of a tropical storm. All the reporters standing around in not a breath of wind forecasting the end of the world.

Yeah they hyped this up

This is a media storm

Feel all sadness and despair for these Aussies tough to deal with fingers pcrossed

This paul is a top bloke spoke straight from the hip and not from the media good lad

Covid Karl trying his best to get something out of the energex guy and he's just so chilled, catastrophic danger out there!

"yeah good message, all good mate"

We are becoming more and more sensationalised like US media, every single day. When I was growing up, this would have been reported as a 5 minute review. Now, there are anxiety ridden and panic driven specials being aired every few hours. Pathetic Australian media. Did you run out of hairdressers claiming bankruptcy stories? The media is reaching a new level of desperation and absolute embarrassment here in Australia. Just like the US. Who ever is calling the shots needs to step down. NO ONE cares. No wonder the mainstream media is now well below lawyers and used car salesmen as being trustworthy, or watchable. 'People should now stay at home and watch our coverage on 9'. Point proven. Wake up you complete puppets.

Great reporting 9 , you have been reporting for days that it was going to hit Bribie Island , well now you say it is crossing now but nobody there , you show many places but not where you should be , again letting people on the Northside down again , disappointed.

Oh no! But the chicken in coles will be in discount!

This is all nothing more than King Tides and a tropical storm. The absolute media hype over this is ridiculous. I lived in QLD for 30+ years if this is there idea of a cyclone heaven help them if a real one arrives

In carseldine area, we still have power, barely had the storm

At least no one has lost their lives

God be in Queensland in this difficult times. Please stay safe everyone.thanks channel 9 for the weather updates Be safe

I swear they’ve just cut the power on purpose and chopped down a couple trees at 3am so it looks like it’s somewhat of a storm

People should get together and ban our local media all the hype and evacuation and the money wasted by the government for a power outage what happened to all the destruction that was meant to happen pfft what a joke

Drama queens.

Media flogging it for all they can, pathetic gossip hacks are irrelevant and they know it, lies and misinformation is all they know

Welcome to what North Queensland goes through a couple of times every summer, now that it's hit Brisbane where the politicians HAVE BEEN IMPACTED maybe they might do something about helping NORTH QUEENSLAND

It was about as eventful as the jake paul vs tyson fight

So when is the electricity coming back? Anyone?

Gold Coast has thunderstorms more dangerous than this pos cyclone they dramatised for 3 days straight.

Live on the altantic Coast in lreland regularly in winter get wind speeds far in excess of this

Why is the power out nothing happening

what a load of rubbish, there was not any where near the cyclone coverage up here in FNQ compared to what is being broadcast at the moment around Brisbane/ gold coast

Cyclone oz is giving the best in depth updates. Go there peoples

Man created CIRCUS
MEDIA LOVES IT
JUST SWITCH POWER OF AND HAVE SLUMBER PARTY
AND SWITCH COMMENTS OFF

The media clutching their pearls over an absent Alfred…🍋

These reporters lack integrity. Lying to their viewers. It is CAT1

Keep milking it…..

What did they turn the power off

Geoengineering

Climate change 😢😢 we just wouldn't listen 😂😂😂

Florida has this figured out. They bury most of their power lines under ground.

I'll tell you right now it will take 2 to 3 weeks if not more than a month for all the blackouts to be resolved
