Cyclone up north

Post by Truedogz » Fri Mar 24, 2017 6:14 am

Another one of these mongrels brewing up north. At this stage it will probably directly hit Ingham and knock Townsville about:

I took a direct hit from Larry (category 4) and got knocked around by Yasi (category 5) while I lived up there so I hate the things.

Everybody pray or keep your fingers crossed for the people up that way.

Best Wishes

I knew some people up there who loved them, they'd fill the cyclone shelter with slabs on bundy and make the most of the day or two off work

This is the best footage I have ever seen of what it is like when you get hit by the eye (watch the whole thing and you will see how the wind stops when the eye passes over):

That hard working community did not deserve this.
