category 3, sustained winds near the centre of 150 kilometres per hour with wind gusts to 205 kilometres per hour

Darwin radar and satellite imagery shows Fina to the north of Darwin as a small but intense system. Based on Fina's forecast west southwest track, the very destructive core is likely to pass just north of Darwin tonight. After passing Darwin, Fina is forecast to maintain severe tropical cyclone intensity on Sunday and into Monday as it moves through the southern Timor Sea, and then start weakening during Monday or Tuesday near the Kimberley coast.
Hazards
VERY DESTRUCTIVE WIND GUSTS to 205 km/h are occurring along the south coast of Melville Island, extending to Bathurst Island with a chance of reaching Wurrumiyanga over the next few hours. Very destructive wind gusts are possible about exposed coastal sites north of Darwin (including Gunn Point) but are less likely at Darwin.
DESTRUCTIVE WIND GUSTS to 155 km/h are likely to continue to extend west over southern parts of the Tiwi islands, including Wurrumiyanga. Destructive gusts may extend to the Darwin region in the next few hours and possibly further to Dundee Beach tonight, particularly if Fina moves in a more southerly direction.
GALES with DAMAGING WIND GUSTS to 120 km/h are occurring over the Tiwi Islands and from Darwin northeast to Cape Hotham. Gales may extend southwest to Dundee Beach tonight, Daly River Mouth early Sunday, and if Fina takes a more southerly track, gales could extend south to Wadeye during Sunday.
Later Sunday or on Monday, GALES may extend to coastal parts of the north Kimberley in WA, from Kalumburu to the WA/NT Border, but not including Wyndham or Kununurra.
HEAVY to LOCALLY INTENSE RAINFALL, which may lead to FLASH FLOODING, is currently occurring around Darwin, and will be possible over the Tiwi Islands and elsewhere about the mainland coast between the area west of Point Stuart and Dundee Beach, during the remainder of this evening. The risk of HEAVY RAINFALL about coastal and adjacent inland areas will extend southwest to the Daly River Mouth overnight and on Sunday.
Coastal residents on the Tiwi Islands, and between Cape Hotham and Warruwi are specifically warned that tides are likely to rise above the normal high tide mark with LARGE WAVES and MINOR FLOODING of low-lying coastal areas.
Recommended action
NTES advises people in the path of the dangerous cyclone about southern Melville Island and Cape Hotham to Point Stuart, should stay calm and remain in a secure shelter while the destructive winds continue. Do not venture outside if you find yourself in the eye of the cyclone - destructive winds from a different direction could resume at any time. Heed the advice and follow the instructions of Emergency Services personnel and local authorities. NTES advises people on the Tiwi Islands, and elsewhere between Daly River Mouth to the area west of Point Stuart, including Darwin, should complete preparations quickly and be prepared to shelter in a safe place. Outside property, including boats, playground equipment, chairs and tables should be secured. NTES advises people between Daly River Mouth and Wadeye should immediately commence or continue preparations, especially securing boats and property, using available daylight hours. NTES advises people elsewhere near and between Wadeye and the NT/WA Border should consider what action they will need to take if the cyclone threat increases. For cyclone preparedness and safety advice, visit the Secure NT website (https://securent.nt.gov.au). For emergency assistance call the Northern Territory Emergency Service (NTES) on 132 500 (for assistance with storm damage, rising flood water, fallen trees on buildings or roof damage).
