To see a couple of different trajectory predictions - including ranfall etc - have a look at
Windy.com. Handy site.

Looks like Pardoo Roadhouse has copped it quite badly.
"The Pardoo Roadhouse is a
Pilbara institution which provides accommodation and meals for travellers, FIFO workers and the nearby
Pardoo Station. It has reportedly endured about $4m of damage.
Images from the family run business seen by The Australian on Friday show the roof completely ripped off. The kitchen and service area are covered in twisted steel.
Staff housing and some of the motel rooms at the roadhouse – located about 1600km north of
Perth – have been destroyed."
I feel for the family who owns it.
