As is the case with all tropical cyclones, Cyclone Yasi was generated from a low pressure system out at sea some days earlier.
Cyclone Yasi, which struck Queensland, Australia in 2011, was a Category 5 tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds reaching up to 285 km/h (177 mph) and a central pressure of 929 hPa. The storm caused widespread devastation in the region.
The size of Cyclone Yasi is about 500km wide.
As with all cyclones, Cyclone Yasi was generated from a low pressure system out at sea some days earlier. The sea temperatures and weather conditions were simply right for a cyclone to be generated from the tropical low.

Well Yasi hit where I live and it was bigger but not stronger. :) :)

Cyclone Yasi happened due to a combination of warm ocean temperatures, low wind shear, and favorable atmospheric conditions in the region. These factors allowed the cyclone to form and intensify into a powerful storm.
Cyclone Yasi formed in the waters just off Fiji.
Severe Tropical Cyclone Yasi was given its name in Fiji. The cyclone started as a tropical low near Fiji, and when it was upgraded to a cyclone, it was given a Fijian name by the Fiji Meteorological Service.
