Tropical Cyclone Anthony

Last night we hunkered down for our first cyclone of the season. Cyclone Anthony crossed the coast at Bowen, it was only a category one, so just a big blow really. We got loads of rain though, and the river is very full now.
We went to our spot at the harbour to check out the sea. They have closed the ports so all the ships have skedaddled. It was waves all the way to Round Top Island. When it rains with one of these storms it really rains.
The real worry is the big ugly sister forming off in the ocean off Vanuatu. They reckon that will arrive on Thursday..
