I'm alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything's fine! House is still standing! Roof is on!
The cyclone passed directly over a town a couple of hours south of here, so the wind here ended up being no worse than the last few cyclones I've been through.
We still bunkered up downstairs for the night, considering how frakking huge the thing looked on the internet/tv.
It's been raining since, obviously, but we're on the top of a hill, so no chance of flooding. The power came back on quite soon (about 20 hours later - I was expecting a few days). But the phone lines have only just came back on line.
Off to catch up on all the posts!
