Post by: WeatherOp on April 06, 2006, 07:46:51 am
Here is another one, Western Australia is gonna get hit again. They had it as a Cat 1 in that news article, but by the looks of the sat, it's not gonna be a cat 1 for long.

A spokesman says reports that looting has taken place have not been substantiated.

Note the differences when an Australian town gets flooded... I said a similar thing when Kartina flooded New Orleans - it would never have gotten that bad here, and it never will.

Actually, I had been doubting some times that the old Aussie spirit may be dieing out lately. The latest disasters and the events that followed proved me wrong. It's good to see people still work together and that Aussie spirit is still there. :)
