Probably his usual excuse of power going out and no alarm:laugh:

[Feral]

Weather coming in fast and bad, severe storm and hail warning pointing right at them. Have texted Angus Terry and Aaron, but no reply, so probably no signal. I hope they see it coming and get out of the way!

[Feral]

Crap they just updated the warning. I hope the boys are off the dam or it could get ugly. [img size=478]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/warning2.jpg

Maxi

[Shrimpo]

Out my patio looking west, Ouch Looks like Black

[maxi]

just tried to ring benno no answer

Maxi

[Feral]

Looks like it has blown itself out - all warnings cancelled.

[maxi]

radar is not telling that story... looks bad still

[Feral]

They have re-issued the warning, non of the radars up here are accessable. Looks real bad, and sounds bad out the window! They could be lucky, not sure of map, but possible the Dam is between the marked areas.
