I'd be staying home Rodrat.

Hopefully stays well out to sea and has little effect apart from some good rainfall. If the weather gods are on your side it should be all done and dusted by next week and you'll get some nice calm post cyclone weather.

to see where this cyclone ends up. The latest reports I saw suggested it might track back down the coast.

Rain

Wed, 2008-03-26 08:51

Hasn't stopped raining here for the last 6 hours and its not just normal rain!!  Hopefully I will be able to get out the airport tomorrow.  If this keeps up you might want to ring main roads before coming Rodrat to make sure you can get from Minilya into town.

Flooded

Wed, 2008-03-26 11:54

The roads in and out of Exmouth have been closed apparently.  There are cars stuck on the highway at the moment.  There are also cars stuck on the local streets as the flood waters are too high, no hope for anyone not in a 4wd.

One of my clients up there has been filling me in on the rain and flooding issue, he reckons it has been playing havoc with power lately too.
