Its about to blow here, I'd thought I would share this with fellow members as you have the extreme weather events in the Northern hemisphere as we do in the Southern. Tropical Cyclone Debbie (cat 4, 230 kilometre / hour wind = 149 mph) is about 24 hours away from crossing the coast just to our North.
At present, we are getting 50 knot gusts, the forecast is for 300mm rain (1 foot).
We have spent two days preparing for this, fuel for the gen set, water, some meals, completed home clean up outside, removed outdoor fan (7 foot across), chained my bike to a post and a myriad of other things.....
Here is the official pic from our weather bureau (BOM)...
We're just out of the "red zone" which is good, but it will still blow that's for sure, also cyclones are bloody unpredictable and you could end up in the red very quickly
