Cyclone Countdown Queensland - We're Thinking of You (23)
I dont know why QLD is copping so much bad luck atm but they dont deserve it. I have family & friends in Cairns & Mackay and Im soo scared for them.
Stay safe everyone
Stay safe everyone
Watching the news now. Police are going door to door ordering all residents out in Lucinda, Halifax and Taylor's Beach.
That person's aunt, whom I mentioned earlier living in Cairns, is apparently going to spend tonight bunkered down in her bathroom. She is 84, used to cyclones, but she knows this one is different. Her younger sister lives in a town nearby which is expected to be more vulnerable. Prayers for all.

Hoping everyone gets through this safely, the nation's thoughts and prayers are with you Queensland

I just feel sick. I know I will be up all night watching and waiting. I keep thinking of all the families with little kids terrified, and all the animals. I hope you all stay safe and the morning comes quickly.

What a terrible night for them, just waiting for the destruction to happen
And what happens to the animals, peoples' pets

Thinking of everyone in the path of Yasi cycloneA team of storm chasers are on the road getting ready to get into the eye of cyclone Yasi! A journo is bunkering down with them. Sheesh. Hope they all stay safe!!
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Stay safe. Oh and may I suggest if you didnt have the chance to board up your windows, use duct tape, it will help keep them from shattering into little peices.

thats insane

It is but sadly they do it all over the world. In my experience they have never gotten injured though. They are normally trained professionals. (I only know this because I have been through 4 natural disasters in which I lost all material belongings)
A dear friend of mine who was holidaying in Brisbane flew to Cairns last night to help. I hope he remains safe and well. My thoughts are with everyone affected by the cyclone.

Thats sad you have lost so much and tonight will be one of the few times i will ask the universal powers for help. Not for me, for those who really will need it. blondeozichick: thats insane
Well, it's like that movie 'Twister'. These storm chasers are very serious in what they do, and know what they're doing...Well as far as nature is anywhere predictable.
I was stoked this morning when I woke up and first thing on the tv said no lives lost or no major injuries. 
But, it's not over yet. I just hope people up there keep well indoors until it is fully safe to come out.
I can't turn channel seven off..

Yes, it's fab news to know all have been safe.Just hope people do heed warnings to continue staying safe and indoors until authorities tell them otherwise.
...I can't access the news right now, but was glued to it hours ago, and up in the night to check. Boy, Nth Queenslanders have had a battering, but have done themselves proud!!
