I agree Chrissy, I wouldn't like it up there, I will be going through that way in April. It's 5.30am and the weather here in SWG on the coast is very miserable, windy, cold and some rain now and then. No walk this morning.

In western Viti Levu in Fiji where we are volunteering we have had huge rains now for over 2 weeks. Roads and towns have been flooded and many roads cut from time to time. Bus services have been restricted and people have not been able to get to work on some days. There have been 8 or 9 deaths and while the rain has eased for the last 24 hours many crops have been lost and many homes wrecked by water and by landslides.
On a couple of occasions there have been misleading reports of impending cyclones. Many local people are terrified because they know that a direct cyclone hit will mean they loose EVERYTHING. Some service organisations like Rotary have been distributing emergency parcels, but some people have nothing to eat and many have been without safe water supply for almost a week. Infections from waterborn diseases are expected to rise.
Tropical Cyclone Jasmine is now about 1,000km west of us and intensifying. We expect it to slide away to the SE over the next few days. We hope it will.
Cheers, Peter

Wow! I'm so grateful to be safe and dry here! Thank you Peter and Margaret, and best wishes and prayers that Jasmine stays away.
PS.. that sounded so superficial when the problems are so enormous.

It sounds nasty in Fiji. Keep up the good work. How do you get into that work?
In good old Adelaide it's cold. Yeah I know it's supposed to be summer. I haven't lost it yet. It's cold here. About mid 20's during the day, cold at night. Good for sleeping, but really could do with a bed warmer to cuddle. Mmmm..... Have to work on that one. I like it warm. It will be Autumn and winter soon enough. We haven't had much rain, just the cold wind, overcast and cold. Brrrrrr!!!!!

Newcastle - lots of storms last night, this morning, bucketing down - and yet BOM said it was only 8ml! My husband said it would have been at least 1". So very wet and soggy underfoot. Just as well we didn't bring the caravan this time!

We're in Bremer Bay too, like Dellalan was. Should've gone to the beach yesterday, as it's much cooler today (Sunday). Still, we're here until Friday so should get a few more nice warm days in. Nice CP, the one near the beach, and taking it nice and easy (someone's gotta do it!). Next stop Hyden - haven't seen that Wave Rock for at least 20 years. Guess it's still the same?
