nbsp; A spokesman of the Australian meteorological department said, "Many signs show that it (Ului) will move towards Queensland's coast and then weaken. But it is hard to predict how strong it would be." Currently, Ului has a strength level of 4, just below the top level 5. When it approaches inland areas, it will definitely pose a huge threat to local regions. nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; Xinhua News Agency, Sydney, March 17th - There are many famous tourist destinations on Australia's east coast, where picturesque islands attract countless tourists who are reluctant to leave. However, because there were reports that severe tropical cyclone Ului was approaching the eastern landmass, bringing strong winds and heavy rains and other disastrous weather conditions, hundreds of tourists had to be evacuated from their resorts. nbsp, ; nbsp; On the 17th, about 300 tourists were evacuated by boat from Heron Island and Lady Elliot Island, north of Brisbane, the capital of Queensland. Residents in coastal areas of Queensland have also been advised to prepare non-perishable food, drinking water, and medicine in advance, just in case. It is reported that Ului may make landfall on the east coast over the weekend, bringing strong winds with speeds of 168 kilometers per hour. This tropical cyclone has already generated strong winds and waves in the waters near Queensland, and is now slowly moving closer to the land, possibly first threatening towns between Bowen and Gladstone. As the hurricane approaches, tourists in Australia are being evacuated. nbsp;
