Absolutely incredible. Really goes to show just how right the authorities and media were to be so cautious about this storm. It’s truly amazing that there haven’t been any fatalities from this, full credit to Australian authorities/government in that regard.
Bet it doesn’t feel like a ‘dodged bullet’ for people living in towns like Tully and Mission Beach… Obviously could have been worse (higher storm surge, Yasi making a direct hit on Cairns or Townsville), but for those whose homes have been completely demolished it’s probably little consolation at this moment.
