Cyclone Ada[edit]
Cyclone Ada was a short-lived but intense tropical cyclone, severely impacting the Whitsunday Region of Queensland, Australia. It formed on January 3, 1970, over the Coral Sea, and was named Ada 11 days later as it moved southwest. By the time it reached the Whitsunday Islands, it had become a Category 3 severe tropical cyclone, allowing it to gain the title of the most damaging storm in the history of the mainland town of Proserpine at the time. It damaged multiple resorts on the islands, and caused 14 deaths. (Full article...)
