Backpackers are being forced to evacuate popular holiday destinations, as Cyclone Debbie threatens Queensland, Australia.
The storm, which forecasters expect to cause serious damage to parts of the east coast of Australia, is set to make landfall on Tuesday morning local time.
The Whitsunday Islands, Townsville and Ayr are all expected to be affected by destructive weather, which includes extremely strong wind, torrential rain and flooding.
Police officers and emergency service volunteers have been going to homes, hostels and hotels, telling people in affected areas to evacuate.
Jess Horn tweeted: "Just love being evacuated from a hostel and being stuck in a town with no way to get out because of a cyclone "
Residents are being told to stay with friends or family in areas away from the coast. But for those without anywhere to go, there are a couple of emergency shelters available as a "last resort".
