Ok. I wasn't sure how Bowen reported. Thanks for the link.

I have been monitoring observations, radar, satellite, etc from the safety of my home.

It is quite interesting, but my heart goes out to all who is affected by this cyclone Yasi, I have heard that it is to be the largest that Australia will have experienced.

Good luck to our Queenslanders, I hope you all stay safe.

Those of us over 1000 miles from TC Yasi are about to experience the remains of ex-TC Anthony which hit northern Queensland a week or so ago - because of the moist air from Anthony we have severe thundersorm warnings for tonight and tomorrow for virtually the entire north/north-eastern half of Victoria from Melbourne upwards and iunto NSW.

No doubt we will have similar thunderstorm warnings next week after Yasi as it moves what is left of it south towards us.

The death toll from Cyclone Yasi remains at one, after a 23-year-old man from Ingham suffocated from using a generator inside a closed room after Cyclone Yasi cut power supplies.

I just can't believe the tropical weather and rain we are experiencing in our temperate climate a couple of thousand kilometers south of our tropical cousins in Queensland. Last evening we had rain I have never seen before. And it is not going to abate soon.

Thanks for pictures Dave, helps to better understand the damage. Unfortunately there was a human loss, but could have been much worse.

Says a hell of a lot, I think most of us can imagine the pain of removing a tree root bundle out of the garden, hacking for hours, and still getting nowhere, and these being pulled up like matchsticks!!

Not sure if this link has been posted. The approach of Cyclone Yasi as told by the data from the BoM weather station on Willis Island. Very interesting.
