All good here, the back yard is a land mine of mud and I've had 2 drain the kids pool a few times 2 stop it from over flowingOriginally Posted by rusty_nail
Have heard of a few tree's down in the area but have not come across any yet.
No snow here mate, I don't think we will ever get snow this far down the mountain, just the coldness from snow being a bit further up
Got the fire going at the momentjust need more wood and plenty of it
Time is never wasted when your wasted all the time

Not good about the loss of life.

WOW, it's worse then I thought. The loss of life is just devestating
We had a fair bit of wind and rain but not so severe.
A couple of weeks ago it dumped around 30cm of snow near my property and the trees couldn't handle the weight that time of year. Took me 4 hrs to get to the property and still have a days work on the chainsaw.

Thanks for the offer. Very much appreciated.
We still have no power at Mona Vale, 24hours since it failed.
Home at Allambie still had no power at about 8.00pm.
Wind & rain seems to be getting stronger.
Our plan is to stay indoors as much as possible.
Have to sign off as my laptop battery is almost flat.
Cheers

Earlier this evening I heard a ‘shellshocked’ chap from Dungog talking on the ABC radio.
He mentioned that neighbours (who he named) had had their house washed away. Those neighbours are people I know.
I’m not sure if it was the house in the video which is doing the rounds but it’s likely unless the same thing happened to more than one house.
I have tried to contact them but had no reply yet. I’m hoping they are away travelling in their OKA camper somewhere out of communication range.
