Category five Cyclone Yasi, expected to be the most powerful storm to cross Australia's heavily populated east coast in generations, is expected to make landfall late on Wednesday night. Thousands of people fled their homes and crammed into shelters in northeastern Australia on Wednesday as the cyclone with a 650 km (400 mile) wide front barreled toward a string of popular tourist cities lining the coast.
