Cyclone Larry crossed the coast near the North Queensland town of Innisfail.
Cyclones are essentially caused by a combination of warm ocean temperatures, high humidity and low wind shear, which means differences in wind velocity and direction at different heights. If the wind shear is high, it can pull a cyclone apart. Low wind shear increases the chances of the cyclone developing. Cyclone Larry was caused by these factors, in particular, the warm waters of the Coral Sea, where it formed.
Cyclone Wanda itself caused no deaths. It was a relatively low-category cyclone (the actual category does not seem to be recorded anywhere) but its beiggest claim to fame was the amount of rain it dumped on the Brisbane catchment area, contributing significantly to the Brisbane floods of January 1974. These floods resulted in 14 deaths.
The govt of the day did a lot to help. The Qld premier & the prime minister where here the following day. As soon as it was safe, the federal govt had the army moving in by the afternoon of the cyclone, they cleared the streets of debri over a month or so. All sorts of other assistance was available, from monetary to physical. No complaints from me. Now & Larry & Yasi survivor.
