How did people react to Cyclone Mahina?

Cyclone Mahina, which hit north Queensland on 4 March 1899, was a category 5 cyclone, and resulted in the greatest death toll of any natural disaster in Australia. It hit a pearling fleet of around 100 vessels anchored at Bathurst Bay, killing 307 people were killed in this one act alone. Only 4 sailors survived. Just before the eye of the cyclone passed overland to the north a tidal wave 13 - 15 metres high, caused by the storm surge, swept inland for about 5 kilometres, destroying anything that was left of the Bathurst Bay pearling fleet, along with the settlement. The death toll of between 400 and 410 included at least 100 indigenous Australians, some of whom died when they were caught by the back surge and swept into the sea while trying to help shipwrecked men.


Where to find a news article from the newspaper of the columbine shooting?

I have contacted the Rocky Mountain News newspaper about this. If they give me any good info I'll change this answer. I've also added a link to the links section that should be helpful but the articles in the link aren't from 1999. I'm assuming you want newspaper articles from the actual time it happened.


Why there aren't any indefinitive articles in this sentence Cyclones are generally accompanied by some kind of precipitation and by stormy weather?

Because the indefinite article 'a' means any one of a kind or group. In this sentence you are not talking about one cyclone, but any cyclone, cyclones in general. Also cyclones is plural. So you use zero article.If you said 'A cyclone is generally accompanied .............' then that is ok.This applies to the other nouns precipitation and weather.


What cyclone was Australia's most destructive cyclone?

Many would say that Cyclone Tracy was the most destructive cyclone in Australia, as it virtually wiped out the city of Darwin, razing three-quarters of the buildings, and killing between 69 and 75 people. However, the cyclone which caused the highest death toll to date was Cyclone Mahina. Mahina was a category 5 cyclone which hit north Queensland on 4 March 1899. A fleet of around 100 pearling vessels was hit as it lay at anchor at Bathurst Bay. Boats were driven onto the shore or the Great Barrier Reef, killing 307 people in one fell swoop. A storm surge caused a tidal wave of about 13 - 15 metres high, which swept inland for a distance of about 5 kilometres, devastating any remnants of the Bathurst Bay pearling fleet, along with the settlement. The final death toll of between 400 and 410 included at least 100 indigenous Australians, some of whom died when they were caught by the back surge and swept into the sea while trying to help shipwrecked men.


What was the worst cyclone in history?

There have been frequent cyclones since records have been kept, since about the 1890s. Some of the largest, in terms of death or destruction, include Cyclone Mahina (1899), Cyclone Tracy (1974) and Cyclone Larry (2006). In February 2011, the north coast of Queensland was threatened by Severe Tropical Cyclone Yasi, which was a category 5 cyclone and predicted to be the most destructive to ever hit Australia. However, whilst Yasi was very destructive to numerous towns and properties, it did not reach anywhere near the dire predictions forecast.
