Yesterday afternoon I was supposed to go to Pilates in Cooroy, but something made me decide not to go. I'm glad I didn't because if I had........
this is where I normally park my car.
I took this photo this morning. Apparently that's after a lot of the branches were removed. It was a lot worse yesterday.
Yesterday afternoon we had a massive tropical storm. Thousands of lightning strikes, the power was out for almost 6 hours. The town 5 minutes from where I live was quite badly hit and suffered quite a bit of damage. The tree above was one of many that were blown over or split and lost branches.
The photos below were taken in Cooroy yesterday after the storm.
One of the larger buildings in the centre of town lost it's roof.

It was one of the worst storms I've been in and the house didn't have any damage at all, other than loss of power. A few of the trees lost smaller branches, but nothing too serious. Talking to people in Cooroy this morning, who were in town when the storm hit, they all said they were very very frightened and it was the scariest storm they have endured. It must have been bad as we get a lot of storms here throughout the summer.
Glad you're okay and that there was no damage to your house.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are ok. Sounds like what it was like a couple of years ago when a mini tornado swept through the suburb that I lived in, in Brisbane. Scary!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness you didn't go out last night. I thought we got bad storms, but nothing like this thankfully. TAke care.
ReplyDeleteYikes, glad you're okay (and your house). What a pain for those who sustained damage. The weather has been a little crazy all over the world.
ReplyDeleteDrama! Glad you and the house are okay!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you weren't there, in your car, getting bashed by a tree!! Hope no one was seriously hurt in the storm and very glad that you weren't!
ReplyDeleteGlad you and your house came thru the storm well! Wishing the best for those that weren't as lucky.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are okay!
ReplyDeleteThe damage looks dreadful. Thank Goodness your car wasnt under that tree!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you and your home escaped unscathed Marg.... poor Cooroy. Can't believe we drove through that lovley little town on Saturday.
