What could be done to ensure Cyclone Tracy doesn't occur again?

Nothing can be done to stop the development of a cyclone. Cyclone Tracy intensified from a storm that developed out in the Arafura Sea. Cyclones can only form if certain conditions are present: e.g. the surface temperature of the ocean needs to be 26.5°C or higher, and there must be a tropical low present. The low air pressure system then begins to pull in clouds and rotate. Man has not yet found a way to control this phenomenon.
However, much has been done to minimise the potential effect on the city of Darwin, or any other Australian cities. Buildings are now built to higher standards which can better withstand cyclonic forces, for example. Even though weather warning systems were adequate for Cyclone Tracy, there are more effective ways to get the message out now. the media plays a big part in issuing warnings, safety advice and evacuation advice. All of these measures can minimise the effect of cyclones on populated centres.

How did people react to Cyclone Tracy?
Among the people of Darwin itself, there were quite different individual reactions. For example:Ignoring the warnings - many residents chose this option because there had been previous threats of cyclones, yet Darwin had not actually been hit by a cyclone for many years, and it was also Christmas Eve - surely they wouldn't be hit at Christmas?!Heeding the warnings and taking the suggested precautions for securing items and preparing for loss of services, e.g. water, electricity.Evacuating early, before the cyclone hit.After the cyclone had hit, the general feeling was disbelief and shock. People were quickly evacuated, and a great many of them (who were mostly transient workers) never returned. The people of the rest of Australia reacted by helping out wherever they could. This involved taking in evacuees or sending goods to help out.so if it happened again people might actually listen to the warnings.made by martha
