    I know it’s getting over 100km around Melbourne, but we’re tracking 83km winds where I am in North Central, and it’s always scary.

    We have cypress pines only 10 metres from the house. Well established and solid, but still…

    And I just heard a tree come down a few properties away while I was typing that.

        Yeah, no trees down for us. We’re lucky that the previous owner of this place had old gum trees removed, the cypress pines are thicker and sturdy.

        Around here if you drive after a windy night you might have to turn around and find another route because of eucalypts fallen across your usual road.

        Only the old clamshell sandpit lid ended up in the paddock, and a few chairs on the verandah went down.

        I see our neighbours were collecting their tarps from our paddock this morning too.
