On November 21, 2025, Kristy McBain, the federal emergency management minister, teamed up with the Northern Territory government to convince people not to treat Cyclone Fina like a casual beach day invite. This cyclone, hanging somewhere magically between a mild Thursday drizzle and an apocalyptic category 3 monster, threatens to surprise everyone from late Friday to Sunday. Officials ask citizens to 'prioritise their safety' and keep alive the age-old excitement of obsessively refreshing weather warnings. Meanwhile, residents are encouraged not to ignore these updates, despite how 'a little bit unpredictable' Mother Nature has become in the southern Timor Sea and Van Diemen Gulf regions.
