        I cannot believe people lock kids in cars in this weather or any weather.
         19 kids were locked in cars in Victoria in the last few days according to the report on the radio a few mins ago. >:(. WTF!!!   
         Throw the book at them.

According to the Weather guys we could have a cyclone out in the Coral Sea by Wednesday.
That's the last thing we need here :-[
We're still getting over Yasi. >:(

We've had 40-60km/hr winds here for the last few days. I do believe a cyclone is brewing in the coral sea.

It's made it hard to even check crab pots in the creeks.

Looks like we are in for another hot week.... Probably not what the CFS would like to see, considering they still have the Billiat and Bangor fires burning that were started by lightning on the 14th of Jan.



At least therse no real chance of frost... ;D

Good luck Mate. It always sucks to be just South of the cyclone when it crosses the coast and Townsville will certainly get an uppercut. Even though they only think it will be a Cat 1, it will still have a fair amount of sting.

G'day wilson79 and muzza01

What's it like down there. We have a son and daughter in Garbutt and another son in Kalinda Close.

Where's the wind gone.. ???

Suspiciously quiet here at the moment - no wind, no rain. O where O where did our tropical low go?

Might surprise us in the morning perhaps?

Woohoo 41 yesterday, today, tomorrow,Saturday,Sunday and most likely Monday. nothing under 39 for the next week. In fact no rain predicted for a month. We've had 1 day of rain in the past month. Good time to be out of the bush in times like this. The high country is as dry as a dingoes bum

Hi Sol,
Its not too bad mate looks like its going to hit south of us just north of Ayr,

Its only a cat1 so shouldn't be too bad the people in low lying areas are in for a rough night as the storm surge looks like it will combine with a king tide..

I have a fridge full of beer and a couple of bottles of rum to keep me warm so all good

Uneventful really. 

However a "sink hole" appeared at Springwood and that seemed newsworthy.  It had to do with water, which is a by-product of weather.   ;D

Cat 2 now according to the BOM- it's winding up quickly. It'll be blowin' in Bowen and not so fair in Ayr!!

OK here's the latest. Pretty calm here at the moment in Brownsville. Had some good rain through the day (should be just enough to settle the dust). Really praying that the rain reaches inland far enough to get to the farms that really need it.

was listening to a caller on the radio this morning who mentioned they were looking for that sink hole, then realised they were parked right beside it at the time whilst on the phone...me thinks the media were beating it up a touch as the caller didn't seem overly amazed with what they were seeing

I know my daughter is happy it's over.
She was here when Yasi came through and was expecting the same in Townsville.
A bit of rain and wind was all they got where she was.
