Cyclone Larry Forum was held at James Cook University, Townsville Campus on 7 April 2006. Preliminary results from post-impact surveys conducted in the aftermath of Severe Tropical Cyclone LARRY making landfall at Innisfail Queensland on 20 March 2006.
This Forum was for stakeholders to share preliminary results from community and field surveys conducted in the immediate aftermath of Severe Tropical Cyclone LARRY. The Forum was an important milestone leading up to the Tropical Cyclone Coastal Impacts Program (TCCIP) to be held in Cairns, later in the year. The early surveys were mostly carried out along the coastal strip between Cairns and Cardwell. Other areas with major damage included the nearby Atherton Tablelands and islands in the cyclone's path. A more specific goal of the Forum was to attempt to allocate a Category to LARRY at the time of landfall. This Report has been compiled and edited by the Regional Director (Queensland) Bureau of Meteorology.
