You can't compare travelling to a hurricane prone area during hurricane season with something like taking a two week vacation to Iraq or some other area where there is civil unrest or common violence against foreigners. There are no travel advisories advising against areas of possible future natural disasters.
He might as well tell Aussie tourists if they get mugged in NYC it's their own fault or don't leave your hotel whatever country you are visiting as something bad might happen.
Now I don't know the full story. The Australian government has a duty to offer whatever support is necessary to it's citizens abroad. If the people stuck there were being too extravagent in their demands then that is different but still didn't deserve that comment.
