Category 5 Cyclone Yasi due to hit Cairns and Townsville

:eek:Fingers crossed for everyone in the path of cyclone yasi!!
Hope op doesn't mind but a friend just sent me these and while i'm sure we wish everyone good luck it's easy to forget the animals affected.


YES! CHUCK NORRIS TO THE RESCUE! :D
 
Terrible news I really feel for all of you down under. Hopes its not as bad as it would first seem and just a lot of hot air.....

4 pages in and we havent had one tin foil hat nutter saying "its the sign of things to come 2012, nibru are on there way... lizard men.....moon nazi's". Sorry what have I started.

On a less stupid note I really hope it doesnt do the damage the new are suggestion. Good luck.
 
They reckon Mackay should be one of the safer places. They even had footage of cops walking around the street still:p

Just spoke to my cousin, She is staying with her parents in Mackay as her house was flooded in Emerald. She said the winds are strong, but not too bad. She is just relieved that she moved out of Townsville not too long ago, and didn't take the job in Cairns that she was offered.
 
The eye of the storm his hit land

Bingal Bay to be precise.

Bad times ahead.

Well, I've stopped up to 12:30am local time to see the cyclone hit properly but the weather channel guys are now saying it could be another hour or more. With work in the morning, that's it from me tonight guys, cheers for all the links, images and videos, will check back first thing to see how it's gone.
 
Really feel for everyone down under, it's been a horrific start to the year, just hope everyone is fine and it passes with only buildings that have been lost
 
****** me, this is hardcore. Australia will be licking her wounds for months to come. I've got plenty of mates in QLD, many of whom were just getting back on their feet after the floods.
 
I do feel for them down under and I hope all the people are\will be ok.
But I did get frightened and excited at the same time in the hurricane season.
 
Stories coming across that Innesfail Evacuation centre has lost it's roof.

Thats not good. One of the evac places breaking up.


"ABC Radio is now reporting that they are looking into the unconfirmed reports that the roof is gone from evac centre at Innisfail"

also

"ABC The reports that the roof is off at Innisfail evac centre are FALSE according to many tweets I am receiving"

It seems that the building next to the Evac centre has lost it's roof. Slight difference there.

Just like twitter and the shootings in regent street.
