Predictions are updated and the models are all mostly agreeing, looking like landfall late tomorrow evening. Hopefully not too much damage with the spicy weather incoming. And lord I hope my power isn't out for 10 days like in the 2022 floods!

Jesus ten days !?!? That must've been hellish. Did you lose much food in the fridge and freezer ? And yeah we really do take electricity for granted. Did you still go to work or Uni or whatever you do, did you read books, what did you get up to ? Due to the many trees we have here we lose power often, and Energex have to come from Cleveland so that can be a pain. But it's only ever been for many hours, not days. That would drive lots of people nuts. So yeah good luck.

Lost the whole fridge by the end of that :( And didn't go to work the first few days, as was basically as island at the time because of the floods. I red my book, until it and my battery backups eventually went flat, lol modern times.

Mind saying where that was ?

Oh and hey, your book went flat !?!?! Lol, modern times indeed.
