Flood after flood after flood, then a category 2 cyclone hits and now they have what is expected to be a category 4 cyclone bearing down on them.
Not a good place to be right now!

We're lucky we miss most of that here, it's a good spot but it's a bit hot at the moment and a few fires around.http://au.news. yahoo.com/a/-/local/8754825/nsw-hits-42-degrees-celsius/
They are talking about Yasi being a 5 now, and a direct hit on Cairns. My sister lives there.
We have to pay a price not to freeze.

I can take a couple days of cold, not sure I'd care for a couple days of hurricane over head though!
Hope your sister does alright!

Thanks, I just rang her. She's staying at a friends house sounds pretty protected there. Hers will flood at the least.
She said it was really still now, but it's due to hit in about 4 hours. Guess you'll see it on the news.

Oh boy, we're following it all from down here in Tasmania...
A category 5, they are going to get creamed!
Poor Queensland, they are copping it from all sides.
It's just hitting about now, 295-300km per hr winds near the eye, all the hurricanes I've been through combined, I'd never trade for ONE cat 5.
Prayers for everyone...

It just missed Cairns, lucky they got out of some other places in time.
No bananas again for a while, most of them come from Innisfail and they just got over Larry.
It was big, that's for sure. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/sp...around-the-world/story-fn7rxoal-1225998850720

No reported deaths very suprising!
Only one death, a guy suffocated running a generator in his garage where he was sheltering...poor sod.
Sugar and bananas are going to be in short supply soon, and what there will be is going to get real expensive.
