Phark..is all I gotta say

shades of 1983...when ½ of Victoria got blown onto the other half

and our current road warnings include road closures-
Westgate and Bolte Bridges are down to one lane each way... max 40kmh
and off limits to semitrailers, vans, caravans and mudderboikes
a gale warning is in force for the bays...no craft less 20m allowed out

all of which is not so silly...wind gusts of 130+kmh are being shown on top
of the Westgate

that sky colour..is not cloud, IT IS DUST!

oh...and its about to rain...lots


cheers

I flew in this afternoon. It wasn't too bad, actually, I was expecting a really rough trip. I hope it's OK tomorrow 'cause I'm going home. Yay!!!

Should give me a call when you're at the airport dave. I'll come and see you

I was fine....
the building I was working in wasn't....moving around in the breeze
tad disconcerting

Unfortunately some people were less fortunate than others.
