Fuuuuuuuck ...

Good luck North Queenslanders.



Cyclone Yasi took out one of the weather stations tracking it this morning. A station that was built to withstand Category 5 cyclones. Up north they have either fled or barricaded themselves inside.

For those of you abroad, yes, that's the same state that spent most of the last two months underwater. Bloody hell.

And you Americans in the Big Snow, keep safe! Stay inside and put an extra dog on the bed!

Can we have a carbon tax now, please? It has to cost less than mopping up after so many extreme weather events.

from us down south where we're currently on fire alert (last few days 40+) to our mates up north - we're thinking of you!

I want to offer platitudes like 'keep calm and carry on' but at the rate the weather is carrying on at moment is calm even possible?

and to the carbon tax, HELL YES say I!

There is, of course, only one thing to do.

Keep calm and call the Doctor.
