Jo poked me asking about the cyclone so here's what's happening.
At the moment we're not too worried. Tomorrow after work we're gonna punish the credit card and do an emergency supplies shop of things like tin food for us and Shadow and batteries and candles and water. Looking at the forecast they expect it to be eastish of Bundaberg on late Tuesday afternoon. That's as much as has been done so far.
If you hear anything about Tewantin, we're about a 20-30 minute drive inland from there and we're currently on vague "consider what if" type alert. Give it another day or so and we'll definitely be on full alert. The house is not going to get flooded although we might get flooded in road-wise. It's the wind that is our issue as we live in a old high-set Queenslander. Theres at least one tree that does need pruning *sighs*
local radar link (Pomona is under kinda under the first o in Cooran and in line witht he top of the T in Tewantin...we so should be on the map dammit)

Will keep everyone updated and if we lose power or such and I can't get online I'll be phoning/texting Kalli or Suk to keep updates happening. But between now and something happening there's likely to be daily updates.
Maybe it's time to sign up for twitter *ponders*
