Cyclone Alfred

Not Eels related, but as a Gold Coast resident, I am now buckled up and locked down for three or four days of what should be one hell of a ride.  To all the members here on the Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and Northern NSW, stay safe. Praying the inevitable damage given the forecast is minimal. Stay safe and well, everyone. No doubt many will not be on here for some time with expected power outages. Stay strong everyone impacted,  by this one in a 50 year event. Batton down the hatches, INCOMING!
