@Clawde @Shaz51 @Eve7

Our hearts are with you at this time. We are thinking of you.

Please stay safe.

• Thank you @tyme rain has been relentless today.

How are you @oceangirl ?

Pray that the floods don't reach you @Eve7

@Eve7 I'm good 🙂 How are you?

Hellooo everyone, first time forum user here.. my pronouns are they/them 🙂

I hope everyone is safe and managing life, post cyclone! I’m still processing the mess that was this last week, honestly. I can’t believe it’s Wednesday already.. I was expecting the absolute worst but was incredibly lucky in my part of Brisbane. Didn’t lose power, didn’t get flooded in, didn’t lose my apartment windows (like I seriously feared I would). Even though the concert I’d been emotionally counting on was cancelled, and my bank account is hurting after the cost of getting prepared, I’m feeling so grateful to have had enough money available at the time to prepare to the best of my ability, and that me and my housemate and pets managed to stay safe through out it all!

Thanks for reading 💚

Hello and welcome @artangelf

I'm so glad to hear that your area was relatively lucky in regards to damage! But I hear that even so it's taken a toll and it must've been a very stressful and uncertain time, but as you noted at the end there, it's wonderful that you and those around you (pets included) were able to stay safe through it all

Hey @artangelf , Welcome to the forums. Thank you for sharing.

I guess sometimes we don't realise what's happened/is happening until after when we stand back to survey the 'mess'.

Hope you are all okay.

@oceangirl @Eve7 @Clawde @Shaz51 , we are also thinking of you at this time.

hello @Eve7 , @oceangirl , @artangelf , @Ru-bee , @tyme , @Clawde , @RiverSeal

I have been in a category 5 cyclone , a very strong one

I am thankful that cyclone Alfred was only a small cyclone , even though it did leave a mess behind him

my S3 had not power for 12 hours

the worse part is the flooding and the disaster to trees ect
