Cyclone Alfred

 Well what a fizzer this has turned out to be.

About a week ago the government began, rightfully in my opinion, to warn us that the cyclone was on it's way.

On Wednesday they switched off all public transport.  In my opinion, way too early and of course stranding those who do not own a car.  The sky's were blue and there was no wind.
