Severe Tropical Cyclone Seroja was the third-deadliest tropical cyclone on record in the Australian region, behind Cyclone Mahina in 1899 and the Flores cyclone in 1973. Seroja brought historic flooding and landslides to portions of southern Indonesia and Timor-Leste and later went on to make landfall in Western Australia's Mid West region, becoming the first to do so since Cyclone Elaine in 1999.
