Last I saw it was a cat3 and heading inland.
Cairns is apparently not as bad as expected but some places are gonna be fucked up.

They most likley don't have power. I was in Isabel in 2003 and did not have power for two weeks. It was only a catagory 1 when it hit land.

[Drew325is]

Early reports are positive, in that no loss of life is known of. Around Mission Beach copped it pretty hard. In Innisfail they're saying 90% of buildings are significantly damaged. Cairns escaped the worst of it apparently. Not a lot of detail coming out of the general area yet. Power is out. Mobile phone network is out. And yeah...it's still hanging around as cat 3, which is a problem.

Was told not to go to work, power has been out almost all day in Austin, no snow or ice, just cold at a staggering level.

Got phone reception. On generator power. And yeah all ok e30 is all safe sorry for those who had dibs. And yup cairns got spared the full force but we still copped 240kmhr winds and rain no major damage reported as yet just slot of trees down small things. Heard varying reports saying cardwell/ mission beach were the cyclone's eye hit is basically gone with upwards of 90% damage. My thoughts go out to anyone down there.

[CleanAzzE30z]

Wow its good to hear youre ok man....

And drew yes it's still a cat 3 100kms inland. The houses inland that far aren't cyclone rated because cyclones arent meant to get that far without loosing strength so I hope their prepared

[payney8]

Cheers Mariano was an interesting ride to say the least the power was dropping in an out 2 hrs before it actually hit. It picked up a tree 4th in diameter and dragged it Down the road about 10 Mtrs
