    Wobbled a little bit further south again, edge of the eye now only about 110Kms away but it is headed for Dunk Island at present.

    Wind has changed directions ever so slightly & I am happy with the way it is turning at this stage.

    Jeez, that's a monster - I've been looking at it for the last day or so and I still can't believe just how big the darned thing is.

    I know you N QLDers are tough SOBs but even this one looks like it could stretch you guys. All the best!

    Only 85Kms away from us now, constant driving rain, sticks & stuff bouncing off the roof.

    Mareeba has lost power, but for some reason we still have it. Don't know for how long. Didn't realise we had so much stuff around. Boarded up the windows in the shed just before dark. Starting to get a bit windy now, plenty of leaves and small branches flying around. Looks like it is going to give Innisfail, Tully and Ingham will get a real touchup. Power starting to flicker..

    About 75kms away now, going below us... still hasn't crossed the coast.

    I can hear lots of stuff bouncing off the roof, constant rain, but then sometime it goes much quieter.
