That's a blow..

Not hearing about much bush damage up the cape from Narelle.
After Trevor it was all in the news and then it all caught fire
and was the most devastating thing in bla bla bla.

Weipa is convinced that the BoM lost the centre for a good
few hours and they got more than show at the time.

I'm just glad it has been recorded to have happened before :)
can you imagine the end of world climate hysteria for a first.


Cheers

No rain here in the last 3 days. I just finished mowing the backyard and there was hardly a cloud in the sky. A beautiful day.

Cyclone Narelle seems to have passed between most populated areas, luckily. I don't know how many people live south of Learmonth but it seems to be running along the coast there at Cat3 presently. It has been quite a storm.

No rain here for a few days either. Nice and sunny, although I quite enjoy overcast.

I always thought Learmonth was a US base. But it's owned by the Australian military AND there's a small US Air Force detachment (from the 2nd Weather Squadron, Detachment 1) which operates the Learmonth Solar Observatory jointly with the BOM.

Be interesting to see if we get any reports of destruction from there.

Here's some more pics.
