Massive wind gusts here at Burleigh Heads now but think we're lucky. It's coming from the SE and we're on the other side of a hill with homes behind us on 2 sides that are on higher blocks so we're protected from the SE winds.

Mines 9 years old , hope that’s the case ( guess if it’s regulations it will ).

It’s funny but looking at the TV ( have been all day ) and I see the wind , and the rain is hitting the Goldy and just up the road here at Redland Bay it’s largely been calm all day.

Winds are picking up a little now but we don’t seem to be getting any of the issues you guys are.

Lost power last night won't be back on till after it all passes. Looks like bbq for every meal next few days. Internet and water still ok at this stage.

Wind starting to whip up now in the northern suburbs. Just hurry up and get on with it now. Hope those on the Goldy and northern nsw are faring ok. Seems as though that sw edge of it is where the trouble is. Fingers crossed for all those.

Wind starting to build here in Redland Bay bit nothing like the Gold Coast which is being hammered at present. My BIL at Mount Tambourine is getting massive winds at present.

Heavy rain and bigger wind gusts now.
Just had dinner while we still have power (in case it goes out).

Can't imagine there will be much sleep tonight.

Ok, you're all making me a bit nervous now. Stay safe you guys!!

@NREagle, you stay safe also and I hope you all get the help you need when/if needed. It seems that all the govts are working well together so hopefully that's the case.
