18th Jan 2021 10:00 AM UPDATE: 8.30AM: Tropical cyclone Kimi could develop into a Category 2 and hit between Innisfail and Ingham, Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk says, as Queensland's Disaster Management Committee prepares to meet. Preparations are underway across the state, with warnings of destructive winds of more than 150km/h heavy rain and flash flooding expected across the region from Lucinda to Ayr. The state's southeast, however, is also on alert for severe thunderstorms later today, which could bring hail to the region. In light of the rain that's expected to occur, Queenslanders have been urged to remember - if it's flooded forget it.
