The largest impact occurred near the core of very destructive winds about south of Broome. The main homestead on the Thangoo station, to the south-southeast of Broome, received only minor structural damage, however the station was in the region of the dangerous storm surge. Reports from the Thangoo station, situated inland from coastal mangroves, showed that the station's front gate had debris laid up to the second shoreline, about a metre (3.3 ft) above mean ground level. Another station homestead, west, was covered by coastal dunes but escaped major damage to its structure.
