just an update, of a cyclone that hit the North West coast, last week, it stayed around for a few days, 24 inches in some areas, Marble Bar, is noted as the hottest place in Australia, I am not sure how much rain they had, but the De grey river is not far away, the river exceeded is previous record height by 2 meters, & is now 14 kilometres wide, about a month back, Marble Bar, had a mini tornado, that took the roof of off about 40 houses & shops, they only had about 40mls from that lot, many parts of the highway is closed, so to get supplies to Broome, they have to transport the goods up to almost Darwin, in the Norther teritory, then into Western Australia, about another 4 hundred mile back down to Broome, cheers Don.
