# Australian authorities say the body of a man has been found in floodwaters after his car was swept away in northern New South Wales. Thirteen military workers were also injured in a vehicle crash as wild weather from a tropical storm lashed the eastern coast. Cyclone Alfred, which was downgraded to a tropical low on Saturday, made landfall near the Queensland capital Brisbane. Nearly one-thousand schools have been closed, public transport has been suspended and airports shut, with flights expected to resume today at the earliest.
