Been major problems getting through with trees down and flooding.
Just heard that they are sending the big trailer mounted gennies up that I worked on last year, 55 tonnes without fuel and quad axles. That's to get the water pumps working in
Innisfail for fresh water. At least the meat works I worked at there are up on the
hill behind the town should be OK if they havn't blown away.

My sister in
Townsville told me that there was a bit of wind and rain but otherwise OK. Brother-in-law at
Trinity Beach north of
Cairns reported that the rain wasn't as bad as expected. Cut off from town for a while and no power but otherwise OK. Thankfully no storm surge at
Trinity Beach either, probably because the cyclonic winds rotate clockwise and, because it hit south of
Cairns, the worst of the blow was towards the sea.
Not so lucky further south.
Cheers
