Cyclone heading this way.Oma its name. Just hoping it doesnt happen.
What's happening with this Grog? I heard it's heading toward Aussie but we're getting shite up north as well.
All on hold at moment Col, huge seas and wind gusts, no rain. 10 1/2 metre wave measured this morn on top of 6 m swell. Wait n see, dont trust these tropical lows.
We have moved a few things and prepped a few areas at work but no one is expecting it to be a big deal.
More wind and rain than normal but high damage isn't expected (by Cyclone standards).
I was working at the Port when the last big one came through...

Watered my veggie garden Saturday and Sunday.
Not a spot of rain.
Very slight breeze to dry the washing on the line.
Not the worst Cyclone I've even seen!
Bit more than a breeze Sunny Coast. They said 40 k gusts but some way more i reckon. Played golf in it, sure were some crazy shots. My biggest cyclone experience was Trixie in 74. 246 k winds. Hard to describe that power.
Just found plastic chair in pool, been blown 5 metres. A few big gusts.
What happened to the bloke that was sat in it? Over the fence?
Wondered we he went. Must have a look. 🤣
Over here 75mph winds is a monthly accurance and in the windy season autumn its not unusual to have 100mph+ gusts .
