Hows every one else doing in this crappy weather ? Didn't sleep last night the wind was pounding the house. Watching power lines out front snapping and sparking up (it does look pretty cool ) trees are across the road.all the yachts out front getting tossed around sails snapping none have broken their moorings yet

Fuked! I hate this weather. I've got a tin roof so the noise is unbearable when I'm trying to sleep.

We're getting pumped here in helensburgh.
Tree fell on the neighbors patio and stairs and took it out.
My kids mini trampoline is at the other end of the porch.
The streets are covered in trees.
Wind speed is 60km/h with gusts of 120 !
It's a mini f@cking hurricane down here.

Weather in my part of Vegas was perfect at 6am. Unfortunately weather down south meant a cancelled flight to melbourne.

Saw the highlights of the sharks game last night. I'm amazed the 4000 that showed up did. That's a hard core group of fans.

weve had 2 extreme weather events in qld the last 4 years, i know its a very tough time for lots of people in and around sydney, really wish everyone stays safe and doesnt go out unnecessarily, sadly last time there were 2 people killed trying to cross a flooded bridge, so please dont try crossing any flood water and dont be out in this weather if you dont have to be.

stay safe

I saw that at the Doctors, was that here or overseas? TV didn't have the sound on.

We got no power,
Back yard now has a swimming pool, lol,
Have had no power since last night,
Spent day at shopping centre just to get a cup of coffee and get kids out of house,
All gadgets almost out of battery,
Hope the power comes back on soon candle light, and no electricity will be the death of me, kids are losing their mind,
