Cyclone Ilsa has hit Western Australia as a class 5 storm, setting a wind pace file.
Extreme Tropical Cyclone Ilsa struck the state near Port Hedland, the world’s largest iron ore export hub, simply earlier than midnight (17:00 BST).
Nevertheless, it has to this point spared populated areas from main harm.
The storm has been downgraded to class three, however a purple alert stays in place for some inland communities.
The cyclone is the strongest to hit the area in some 14 years.
