hang in there australian wattmers

fun to watch though

that video was refreshing...usually there is some commentator going on and on when all I want to do is look at the video

i've watched those tents hit the bridge like 3 times and i each time i lol

wait for it...wait for it.....

Oh well i missed one day of work. They didn't muck about at our place and poured a concrete barrier on the morning of the floods on an underground carpark exit into a street which has some low flooding, but enough water that if it had poured in, work would have been closed for months. concrete>sandbags = ;-] -->> dleetr

lolz, fires/cyclones/drought(which brisbane was in for the last 7 years before this one)/floods/wild roof ripping supercell storms ...

ignorance leaves room for diss.

But yeah most of the time it's pretty placid, just too bloody hot.

Heres a pic of Brazilians looking like Romero extras. Gonna be a long wait.

Maybe they were promised gondolas.

This reminds me of the crazy Freakreation Festival 2008 in NSW, Australia. The location essentially became an island inaccessible by land for three days when the surrounding river flooded. Best part is the party continued on for three days with helicopters dropping in food and supplies for the stranded ravers.

 

Pics from the disaster zone and a

of the announcement declaring the festival a natural disaster area.

hahahahaa. this is too funny :) (the story about freakcreation. not the qld floods. the qld floods are horrible.)

Actually not true, not in Sydney anyways

Queensland, Australia - CYCLONE

only a month or so after the hardcore flooding, queensland is now being hit by >> Cyclone Yasi <<

the cyclone has recently been updated as a category 5 cyclone (i've read that it's bigger/sttronger than Katrina). nasty stuff.. :F

Clearly, God hates Australia.

yeh pretty much. it's the only conclusion i can come to aswell.

it's a bit much relly.

mate of mine down there said that the weather station on willis island was obliterated, so tracking the storm is now very difficult
