I've checked the guttering above the man cave but most importantly I've checked the wetsuit (still fits-just), life jacket and fins. I haven't jumped off Murrays Bay Wharf (on an in coming tide) after a good cyclone since Bola!

Meh i've just planned my root for a 340 km/h tail wind. lol opinions are still open on how good a blowie pam is gunna be-some cyclones lean toward land masses-and her path includes a depression that will pick her up. However we are colder than tropics so she will chill a tad.
Might be a quick one, don't forget to wear protection Lol (o:

Cyclone Marcia went right over the top of us a few weeks ago. It had reduced to a tropical depression by then, but we still got 430mm of rain in 36 hours

hey guys--I just got news from my friends in Vanuatu. several confirmed dead over there. Mele village got pounded but no reported fatalities. My friends are all alive but not too well. Likely in the next few days I'll have a container out back of the yard. Hopeing to bludge as much building material as I can including tarps to get up to VA. Sorry if this seems like self promotion but my friends have been kicked pretty damb hard. They don't have much so pams taken that away from them

Yes it can, and probably will. I think the Wellington is up there somewhere now already too. The Aussies will send ships too.
