Communities in Western Australia's far north are preparing for a possible cyclone, as a tropical low develops this weekend. The Bureau of Meteorology said the low was about 450km north-west of Broome heading east-southeast at 19km/hr. The low may develop into a tropical cyclone early tomorrow and is likely to brush the northern Kimberley coast late on Saturday into Sunday morning. Emergency service crews are on standby and people living between Kalumburu and the Northern Territory border are being urged to prepare their homes.
