Cheers, appreciate that.
I’m right on the border line. Hopefully they have sand bagged that road.

Edit: Feel kind of useless sitting here in Melbourne.

Our power is intermittent now. I am on battery. The wind and rain is increasing exponentially. I am signing out, I will see you guys on the other side.

Kirra was “as good as it gets” on 4th March. Here is some of the gold from an epic day of waves.

Another beautiful day at the gold coast

Maybe inappropriate timing to be making jokes about the Gold Coast with what’s happening now and over the next few days.

Landfall creeping northwards- pretty much over Redcliffe now. Bribie Island in for a hammering it seems. They’re predicting the rain event could last up to 5 days now as Alfred has slowed down.
Evacuations in order already for Lismore & other Northern Rivers areas.

Worst of the wind and rain will be on the south side of where it crosses, so slightly more northern trajectory isn’t ideal for the GC.
