Darwin residents assess the damage as TC Fina moves out to sea

Severe Tropical Cyclone Fina has passed Darwin at category three strength, with the weather system's gale-force winds leaving a path of destruction as it continues west into the ocean. 

Fina was the Northern Territory's strongest cyclone to pass Darwin since the deadly Cyclone Tracy in 1974.

The system was also more powerful than Cyclone Marcus, which passed Darwin as a category two in 2018.
