There's a cyclone headed right this way.... :shock:

160km hour winds ....its only a little one they say but could whip up a bit. Should be here in a couple of hours!!

Batten down the hatches.....might go down and have a look at the surf.

Well it's now 2.03pm. Are you still in one piece?

 

[Melstar]

i think its been downgraded slightly. We were meant to apparently cop some of it in brisbane as well, but its only been raining at a steady rate for about the last hour, nothing to worry about!

 

[coolumsharkie]

yeah its been downgraded to a tropical depression...we were gettin' sirens on the tv....that was pretty freaky....still says 130km winds but not much to worry about I think :?

Try driving home from school in a 1981 Subaru Leone.

I was sliding and being pushed all across the freakin' road, I mean, I can pick up my car if I try hard enough, I was sh*t scared LOL :lol:

 

[Melstar]

haha, well I hope you're all alright, and it doesnt hit too badly. The winds have picked up a fair bit down here

 

[Macca]

Geez, that sounds a bit ordinary.

 

[Chicken_Hunter]

It hasnt ever been classed as a cyclone has it? And winds were never 160km/h.

I live right next to fraser islands southern end so i will get whacked with it

I'm on the Gold Coast and it was suposed to be 130km winds here right now.
It's pretty windy but nowhere near 130km

A little low blow (not a cyclone) and its news down there! the low gave us 4 days of 80 - 100km\h winds and we just say its no good for fishing! and where's the rain!

The flooding is what kills you guys! Can you Send some of the water up here (CTL Nth Qld) we need it, the cyclone season has not been a good one so we need more rain!
