The cyclone has dumped a year's worth of rain on some areas while also hindering the evacuation efforts by the authorities. Image Source: Getty Images

However, there have been no reports of any death of missing people so far. Hundreds of people have been rescued while authorities expect the flooding to be the worst recorded in the state. Image Source: Getty Images

Apart from leaving the residents without access to power, food and drinking water, the floods have prompted warnings of crocodiles swimming through the inundated water. Image Source: Getty Images

The state's Cairn city has received over 2 metres of rainfall forcing the airport to shut after planes were trapped in floodwater on the runway. Image Source: Getty Images
