Cyclone Damage Restoration Rockhampton

Rockhampton (postcode 4700) sits precisely on the Tropic of Capricorn at 23.4° south latitude — the exact geographic boundary that defines cyclone versus non-cyclone Australia. Properties in and around Rockhampton are within the ARPC Cyclone Reinsurance Pool zone.

TC Marcia (2015) made landfall near Shoalwater Bay, north of Rockhampton, generating Category 5 conditions and causing significant structural damage across the region. TC Maila's projected southern range includes the Rockhampton corridor for the 13–16 April 2026 window. Even if TC Maila passes north of direct Rockhampton impact, the system will generate strong wind and rain bands extending well south of the eye.
