  • Severe Tropical Cyclone Fran was the third tropical cyclone within four weeks to impact Vanuatu in 1992. Fran formed on March 4 and then gradually intensified. Winds reached gale-force on March 5, and hurricane-force a few days later. Cyclone Fran reached the powerful Category 5 equivalent on the Saffir–Simpson Hurricane Scale near Vanuatu. The storm weakened somewhat due to land interaction, but briefly re-intensified after moving away from land. Fran gradually weakened over the next several days over less favorable conditions. Meanwhile, the storm passed north of New Caledonia. Eventually, as a Category 2 system on the Australian scale, Fran made landfall on Queensland during March 16. Severe Tropical Cyclone Fran turned towards the southeast and eventually headed back out to sea. The system dissipated the next day. On Efate, over 130 houses lost roofs. Along Queensland, two rivers sustained major flooding, but no deaths were attributed to this cyclone. Total damage from the system was AU$8–10 million (1992 AUD). Moderate damage was also reported in Fiji. In New Caledonia, the storm brought flooding and landslides. (en)
  • O ciclone tropical severo Fran foi o terceiro ciclone tropical em quatro semanas a impactar Vanuatu em 1992. Fran formou-se em 4 de março e intensificou-se gradualmente. Em 5 de março os ventos atingiram a força de vendaval e força de furacão alguns dias depois. O ciclone Fran chegou a terra (landfall) perto de Vanuatu o equivalente a um furacão poderoso de categoria 5 na escala de furacões de Saffir-Simpson. A tempestade enfraqueceu um pouco devido à interação com a terra, mas intensificou-se novamente depois de se afastar da terra. Fran enfraqueceu gradualmente ao longo dos dias seguintes em condições menos favoráveis. Enquanto isso, a tempestade passou ao norte da Nova Caledónia. Eventualmente, como um sistema de categoria 2 na escala australiana, Fran atingiu a costa de Queensland durante o dia 16 de março. O ciclone tropical severo Fran virou para o sudeste e finalmente voltou para o mar. O sistema dissipou-se no dia seguinte. Em Éfaté, mais de 130 casas perderam telhados. Ao longo de Queensland, dois rios sofreram grandes inundações, mas nenhuma morte foi atribuída a este ciclone. Os danos totais do sistema foi de AU$ 8–10 milhões ( AUD 1992). Danos moderados também foram relatados em Fiji. Na Nova Caledónia, a tempestade trouxe inundações e deslizamentos de terra. (pt)
