It maintained its identity while travelling southsoutheastward bringing substantial rains to the Gascoyne's and Southwest division. Eventually the low pressure system which had been tropical cyclone Beverley crossed into the Southern Ocean and amalgamated with a southern cold front.
Damage caused by cyclone Beverley probably exceeded $1 million with the most extensive damage being in the Learmonth and Carnarvon areas.
