Vanuatu is in a terrible mess, it will take years to recover.

We've had constant rain for the last three days (more to come), but getting wet is nothing to complain about.



Borisina is in the middle of the web, and there are two butcher birds on the back deck, warbling.

Please don't let it go back toward Vanuatu.

They have really had more than enough!

the bureau got it wrong!

Nathan went north, but instead of heading east to the ocean, it went west. NT is copping it again.

Saw a friend this morning, his daughter lives at Pt Douglas...... she said it was pouring with rain, but so far no nasty wind.

It looks like Nathan is heading north & out to sea again. I hope he weakens soon.

It's getting humid here, don't like it at all :-(

:-) Maggie..... I've been watching Borisina! He/she is still in the middle of the web, when he/she moves I'll start to worry.

We have grey sky, but the temp isn't as high as yesterday (mid 30s, and it was still 28C at 8.30 last night).

We'll probably get a wet weekend, but that's nothing to complain about.

It's been out in the ocean, but has returned to land.

It was a category 5 but is now a 2 or 3.
