My thoughts are with the guys in qld who are about to face the storm.

i hope you all that are affected get through without too much damage or such, i been watching the storm pretty closely on the net and stuff, and the general consensus is that its gonna be a lot of deaths and a lot of damage.


my thoughts are with you guys

Ditto,

Our thoughts go out to Matt and all others up that way. My son is in Bowen so i pray he will be ok. Wishing you all the best.

Yep to everyone who lives up there, I'm really hoping you all do alright. As I watch the news about Yasi I can't help thinking/hoping it won't be as bad as they say it's going to be.

I post pics up here later, you can feel it rolling in.....

yes good luck guys, be safe, you are in our thoughts.

looking at the radar it looks scary.

It's some scary looking shit, I have several mates in cairns who've left their homes, I pray they'll be ok.

All our thoughts to those toughing it out over the next 12+ hours...

My sister and her family live in Yeppoon I hope they get through this ok.

Yepoon will be fine, the cyclone is much further north.

My parents are bunkered down in the basement of their house in hamilton island. At one stage it looked like they were going to really cop it but thankfully (for us) the storm swung west again.

by the way. check this out

It starting to rip through Townsville now, no real rain just crazy gusting winds..... But by some miracle still have power.... It is damn hard to take photos of the wind and rain coming in hoizontally...

Thanks again for the support!

Scary stuff, just following the news on TV. Qld must be due for long break from all this BS weather after this blows over.

Power is now out and the winds are picking up... See you guys on the flip side!

Good luck guys. Really worried about u guys over there. I hope everyone gets through ok.

It is sort of like waiting for something you know you are gonna get but don't deserve and can't do much about the result.What do you do? Bunker down in the bunker built into your house? CRIPES, I'd be packing me duds. Flip side - good to see you have a sense of humour as it comes in. How many of our memebrs or their families look to be directly affected by this mother? Insurance companies rule out cyclonic winds like flood damage?

To all of you up in the TC Yasi area stay safe our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Thanks again for the support i know it means alot to everyone up here.
