Darwin swirl

[Liz]

Not a cyclone yet, but wont be long. :rain:
Any Darwinites feeling a bit wind and rain??

One Ex Darwinite here, see they have had 339mm since 9.00am yesterday, reckon they are going to get some more as well. Looks like it is going to go Cyclone north of Darwin and return south as a full blown cyclone. Well at least according to the BOM...:eyepop:

I hope it doesn't return as another cat5

Now known as TC Carlos Cat1. I have a lot of mates in Darwin, one works the Emergency services number and he is at present stranded in Brisbane due to Darwin Apt being closed. Apparently his bosses are spewing because he cant get back. I reckon Murphy might have had a finger in the pie.:D

Yeah she was windy yesterday trees and branches coming down everywhere over the top end. Couple of fuel stations out of fuel and the local supermarkets are looking pretty bare now.


I have my fokes up from Perth atm and what a time to come up. I was in hope of some clear skys for Saturn... haha dont think that will be happening anytime soon.


On there way back to the hotel in the city from Palmerston, they recon it was a bit of a hairy experience. 100km winds and rain heavy rain made driving very difficult.

Just have to wait and see if Carlos dose a u turn.....:windy:

Looking at the radar, it shows the eye sitting right on top of Darwin and not moving: http://www.weatherzone.com.au/radar.jsp?lt=radar&lc=063

Geeze, they should have called it Charles instead of Carlos.
